  • Expensive app to read books and they upped the price by 33% without notice

    This app is expensive to read the the owner of this app also owns other ones. It costs over $100 to read an ebook if you buy coins to read and that went up by 33% when they upped the price of each chapter. You can’t message the help center without downloading another app because they can’t and won’t help you in the app because there isn’t an option to resolve issues in the app. The spelling and frantically errors are horrendous. This app just keeps getting worse and worse. Save your time and don’t download it to just be completely disappointed for a free app book when it’s not. An amateur writer shouldn’t with a book with tons of errors shouldn’t cost over $100 to read when you don’t get a physical copy when physical copies cost under $25 and real professional ebooks most cost under $10. Shame on everyone on the executive team.

    Developer Response

    Hi there, thanks for your feedback! This kind of online reading is very different from traditional reading. We have to pay a lot to the authors for every chapter. We are considering the pricing now, as well as monthly subscription. Your opinions are important to us, could you please reevaluate our app? We will try our best to improve our product.
  • Pretty good

    Has some really good books and I don’t want to stop reading, but they give hardly any points daily so it takes days to be able to unlock even one chapter which will last you a couple minutes of reading. The only way you can actually set and enjoy a book is if you spend quite a bit of money to unlock each chapter. Then that process will start all over again when you find a new book you enjoy. Seems to be a app all about making $$$$

  • Vouchers Not Credited

    This app has a lot of great stories, but is easily expensive. Twice now I’ve purchased a coin pack and my vouchers weren’t credited. I’ve emailed support as it tells you to do, sent pictures of my transactions and still am waiting for a reply. We shall see.

    Follow Up: 3 days later and I still haven’t been contacted by anyone from this support team. This app is falsely advertising Ivouchers when you recharge. I haven’t been credited one single voucher when charging up for 500icoins +60 vouchers, not ONCE!! A straight scam and rip off because I desperately want to finish this one book that’s stupidly expensive for a single chapter, and at this point I should be given free coins for my already paid for but not credited vouchers. Absolutely ridiculous. Once I’m done with this one story, this app will be deleted and forever forgotten about, as well as negative reviews from me on all social media platforms. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY, a complete joke!

  • Math not mathing

    Some things busted with a sever or that a programmer can't count or do the math that a 4grader can do or something I have watched 6 ads and they are supposed to be 12 vouchers each but it keeps giving me just one 6x12=72 but I keep getting one so I only got 6 over the last couple of days also I found the story on facebook and it had a deal thing going on that if you did it in 24 hrs you got 30 vouchers so so far I am supposed to have 102 vouchers but I only have 26 something it busted not also including that the reading times are messed up for some reason i would like to finish a story because i cant find it on any other platform theses whole reading apps that only make you either pay real money to read the books and or use vouchers I honestly feel like are a rip off mainly because people are broke it is hard to keep reading just add a timer that takes an hour or 3 hours since 30 vouchers for one chapter long story short math is not right because it shouldn’t take me 3 days for one chapter

  • Kind of lame

    I really hate how I find these stories that I really enjoy but it makes you pay after you reach a certain chapter. Its like it makes you pay right when you start to get hooked and it’s really frustrating. At least with some apps like this there are a lot of daily opportunities to get enough coins to actually continue reading but this one has hardly any. You get like 1 voucher for anything you do. For example, there’s another app that has it so when you watch ads you get like 5 coins each ad and then daily check ins start with four coins and you get more each day as the week goes on. This one gives you one voucher for everything. Kind of disappointed.

  • 🤔

    I do enjoy most of the books I’ve read, but let’s be honest for a moment. It all comes down to money. I do no mind paying for books, I’m an avid reader. I would really just like to purchase the book. Read the book and be done. The thing for me is after buying x amount of coins to read x amount of chapters you spent a considerable amount on a book that hasn’t even been proofread, has all tyoes of errors and sometimes you have to sit for a minute and decipher what the author was actually trying to say. I don’t mind because it shows support but can we just pay for the books already and just get on with it.

  • Avoid these apps at all costs!

    They cost soooooo much money to finish a book. The one I got sucked into on a fb ad has already cost me $20 and I’m at like chapter 32 out of over 150! The story starts fast to hook u but then it’s drug out so much to get you to spend more and more money. It’s ridiculous. Ad works okay but I swear it’s going to end up being $50+ to read a book quickly otherwise u need to sign up for the weekly charge and be satisfied with reading less than an hour a day unless u buy coins. It’s stupid.

  • I love to read however…

    I have several apps to read from. Each require money to read. Once I’m done with this book I’m deleting this app. The reviews have tainted this app. If updates screw with already paid books that’s a no. The 20 points are what give this five stars only
  • Needs fixed…again!!

    Edit: Everything was fixed and working great. Now, we’re back to the rewards page not loading. Please fix this issue!

    December 5th…Yet again more issues. Can’t watch the videos to get coins. It won’t load the page at all. I have spent a lot of money on this app and there’s constantly issues with books locking, chapters being loaded twice and now can’t get rewards yet again. Please fix this! The reading rewards are not working. The chapter’s have gotten really expensive and when you’re not getting the rewards, you have to spend your own money. I have tried app support but there isn’t an app support. I’m about to uninstall the app and lose the money spent on books. It’s frustrating. The rewards have been lowered and now you can’t even get them. What happened?

  • The weekly bundle for 9.99

    In theory makes since but I end up still spending money throw out the week so it’s easier to just go ahead and if you’re buying vouchers to just splurge and spend 50 also a lot of the good books are also on other apps for less and easier to finish
