  • Support RR

    Just writing this to support, so far everything seems excellent, and no issues so far. Been a long time coming.
  • Finally!

    It runs great, and Iโ€™m so happy to have an app!! I can read all my favorite stories and access my account much easier now than when it was on a phone browser!
  • Brilliant

    This is the best platform for reading, period. With 60,000+ free stories, there's undoubtedly something for everybody. The publishing hits of the future start on Royal Road. Interactive features that boost genuine engagement. Talk with your favorite authors! I highly reccomend buying premium, it's very inexpensive, yet provides great convenience. This right here is an amazing app. Check it out!
  • Second

    Canโ€™t wait to see royal road pop off, itโ€™s been my favorite reading site for years, with consistently high quality stories from experienced and novice writers alike. Welcome all, welcome.
  • Soon (TM) Became Real!!!

    We finally got an app release! This probably wonโ€™t help with my habit of finding things to binge read. Oh well. Iโ€™ll just suffer from excess reading material.
  • You need this app!

    I have been using the RR website for 5 years!! This app brings so many new and amazing features and build upon Royal Road in all of the best ways! I have both been reading and writing on the site for many years, so hereโ€™s a take for everyone:

    Readers: There is so much amazing content just waiting for you on RR. Some of the best (IMO). All of my favorite authors and books have come from this site. If you want to read and be engrossed in some of the best stories out there, this is your place.

    Writers: Now is time! With the app being released there are bound to be many new users checking out the service. This is a place where anyone can succeed and find an audience. I highly recommend you use RR. There is no better place to begin your writing journey!
  • Finally

    Been waiting for an app for this site for a long time. Great format for reading stories by new and old authors for every genre under the sun, though mostly being partial to Fantasy of sorts. This standard of writing for popular stories is much higher than other light novel sites like Webnovel, while also providing completely free viewing of content that authors post. This site does have a program where stories can move to Amazon Kindle as published works, which will then require them to not be viewable on the site, but it allows for a great environment for amateur authors. Highly reccommend.
  • Good over all

    Problems
    -Background sometimes having glitches of black box when in a side menu (doesnโ€™t cover text)
    -Solid colored box at the bottom of the screen when reading is off putting (there isnโ€™t even an ad, so I donโ€™t know why is there and why it canโ€™t be minimized if ads do go there)
    -No screen rotation? Or does it not work for IPhones but does for IPads? If no for both then it should be added personally, I at least donโ€™t like how WebNovel doesnโ€™t do have that rotation ability.
  • Worth a try

    Great app for exploring new genres and discovering new authors!
  • 5/5, 10/10

    The app is awesome. It has everything I want out of a reader (dark mode, no lag, distraction-free, ability to change text size/font/color, etc.).

    On top of all that? Itโ€™s a million times better than reading on a phone web browser.
