Honest Review. VERY GOOD APP

This is great for people who love stories and have ideas, but struggle to write and bring them to life.
It’s an easy app to navigate, and the layouts make sense.

Some of my honest thoughts on things that I don’t like as much:

The plot summary for creating a chapters character limit is a bit too short for my liking. To get the chapter as I want, I always start with “Perspective of __ and __” to be sure it’s in the right POV. And I usually have “Continuation of the last chapter” at the beginning so the plot of the last chapter continues with no time skip. It’s not horrible, but it takes up a lot of the character count. I would love for it to be maybe at least 850, instead of the 750.

Same thing for character descriptions. I find that 100 is FAR too short to fully describe a character in a meaningful way.

The chapter edit layout. It’s easy, but a bit annoying at times. I wish you could edit from the chapter you are currently viewing, so you don’t have to scroll every time. When you go to edit, it always puts your cursor at the end, even when you click. somewhere else, so it’s hard to edit at times. I’ve gotten around it by selecting all, and pasting it to edit in another app.

But, seriously. This app is great. Other than the things I mentioned, it’s perfect. Highly recommend.

Enjoy the App but definitely see more room for improvement.

Definitely enjoy the creativity of the app. Wish there was more options like a picture creation for each chapter and a more detailed description of like 1000 words instead of 750 word limit. And more of a ability to make story’s/books and novels more accurate to the detail description. Overall I’ve enjoyed it. But definitely more room of improvement.

Glitch broke the AI dose not work

I can’t create a single story now I also can’t read the past chapters as they make a new one. Not worth the 70 dollars the app is completely broken

Story creation failed. Please try again.
The operation couldn't be completed. (NovelAl.Open-AlError error 1.)

Response from developer

Hi, this issue is fixed in version 3.0.3. Please update to the latest app version to avoid this issue. If you have any other questions, you can email us at: support@novelaiapp.com

Just no

It’s a no for me you have to pay to make a better story

It WAS amazing but you have to pay to make stories

It was amazing at the start I loved it and my story, but you can only make 1 story with REALLY annoyed me Buckie’s you have to pay like 5 POUNDS to make a another one
Which is really really really frustrating!!!!

Almost perfect

This is a fantastic app with some issues. When generating book cover art it either won't create it or it won't let me pick the art it does create. Another issue is creating a long story (5 chapters) and it repeats chapter 3 at least twice and the fifth chapter picks up from the missing 4th chapter. That's much more annoying than the cover art issue.

Amazing AI, but has some issues

The AI can expand a mere 750 character long prompts you write into a lengthy chapter with such writing ability it still amazes me. The AI also is able to have a great knowledge on many niche topics, making great use of available information. Although there’s some issues. I’m using the Endless Mode with a singular story, but roughly when there’s been 60+ Chapters written by the AI, the AI begins to slowdown and its quality degrades. For example: I wrote a classic 750 character long prompt, but the AI returns a blank response, as in literally- the chapter written is just a handful of blank spaces. This forces me to lower down my response and the AI missing many key details. At the 70+ chapters mark the AI becomes so degraded that even single sentence prompts are a sink or swim, requiring constant repetition in submission. Another example would be that at 40+ chapters the AI begins to number the chapters wrong, sometimes repeating the previous chapter number or just a random number in general. Despite all these issues, the AI is still incredibly impressive as these signs of degradation only happened after 5 days of usage on the exact same story each and every day.

Problems!

(1) The keyboard keeps glitching and messes up the screen and I can’t see what I write or how much I wrote. (2) my characters in the story don’t match what I put for them or they don’t exist at all! I put a horse named akimbo and he’s a Nokota breed instead they put him as a black mustang and my character is supposed to be a teenage boy instead he’s 12 years old my character was a bodyguard it puts she’s a lawyer or something stupid and completely opposite! FIX THESE BUGS! IVE BEEN WASTING MONEY ON THIS!

I’ve tried numerous times to create a story and there is always an error.
