And I can’t load any sites at all every time all I get is a gray screen **Developer response:** please update new version ### 4/5 — Ads *2026-07-02, version 1.8.7* Awesome platform should reduce ads though ### 2/5 — Not recommended for reading Asura *2026-04-05* Used to be useful for reading Asura with fewer ads. But since Asura got rid of ads this is just a downgrade to going to Asura directly. Still useful for downloading chapters for offline reading though. ### 3/5 — Bug? *2026-04-04, version 1.8.2* It’s not letting me read it only shows me suggestions when i click on the reading sight ### 3/5 — Good app but *2026-01-30* Good app but had enough of ads so I got vip but it didn’t activate and now I still have ads ### 3/5 — Subscription *2026-01-08* Like the app overall but I paid for no ads for years and it had stopped working for 2 months still got ads every other click the time to repair that issue was unacceptable and I wasn’t even offered any compensation or 2 months no charge anything to make up for that failure also a very poor experience from the consumer side shows how little care was given to our inconvenience and wasted money just pocketed it and called it a day. ### 2/5 — Every update breaks premium *2025-12-08* Title. It’s a decent app but every update breaks the premium feature and restoring doesn’t work. You’re literally getting charged for more ads. ### 4/5 — NSFW ads *2025-12-02, version 1.7.5* The site is great I have been using it for 2 weeks but the ads are just so weird. Some is blatant p0rn ### 4/5 — Bugging *2025-09-09, version 1.7.1* The app is bugging and not letting me go in the reading site ### 2/5 — Works half the time *2025-09-08* It’s great when it works, but it’s not always the case. **Developer response:** please DM us on Twitter or Email for support ### 4/5 — Ad keep freezing when watching *2025-08-16* It’s a great app but don’t know why the ads keep freezing and the no ads stuff is not working and don’t see any advanced features on the new version even though you have to update twice a month ### 3/5 — Ads have nude pic that pop up *2025-06-26* Still have ads , Why? But besides that a great app ! 5 out 5 . Let’s just fix when someone pays for no ads ….. that they don’t get ads ! Plus those ads take 2 min to finish or they freeze on you (so much fun ) making you waste your time watching the ads twice (everything is better the second time 🙄 ) .But that definitely makes you not want to use this app . Oh wait I think the adds just got done . Perfect I had just enough time to write this to you . Now I can go read , which is what I pay for 😁. Wait nope false alarm 🚨 I have to watch the ads again . Yaay me ! ### 2/5 — This was my fav app to read on *2025-06-08* Currently this app is unusable unless you pay for the subscription with no ads. I cannot read anything for 5 seconds without an ad popping up, which then redirects the page to a random cam or porn site. It’s frustrating and really sad cause this app used to work ### 2/5 — Good idea, but… *2025-06-01* I think it’s very convenient to have all your favorites manga websites in one place, however. Invasive adds are annoying. It’s better to have Adblock and just read straight from the website instead. I know ads pay for the convenience but if implemented in a way that ads can continuously be there without the need to be closing pop ups. Like on the sides top or bttm of the page. ### 2/5 — Bad update *2025-05-29, version 1.6.4* Updated the app, but now it’s flooded with continuous ads. Skip them just for more to pop up. Just tried to go back in but the app keeps crashing. Please advise ### 2/5 — Cant exit ads *2025-05-22, version 1.6.3* Press the x and the ad stays on screen till close app ### 4/5 — . *2025-05-14, version 1.6.3* Pretty good app to read on, adds here and there which is expected but not constant. For some reason no matter how many times I try I cannot sign up for an account it’s always saying username exist after countless random letters and abstract names the same pop ups happened. But it is a good app many different places to read updates frequently so it’s a 4 star for me. ### 4/5 — Pay for no ads *2025-05-13* Still have ads , Why? But besides that a great app ! 5 out 5 . Let’s just fix when someone pays for no ads ….. that they don’t get ads ! Plus those ads take 2 min to finish or they freeze on you (so much fun ) making you waste your time watching the ads twice (everything is better the second time 🙄 ) .But that definitely makes you not want to use this app . Oh wait I think the adds just got done . Perfect I had just enough time to write this to you . Now I can go read , which is what I pay for 😁. Wait nope false alarm 🚨 I have to watch the ads again . Yaay me ! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2025-11-15, version 1.7.4* I work all day long to get home open my phone excited to relax and read but adds keep popping it. You may ask why don’t you pay the $3 a month to the add free membership, well I did and the adds keep coming. No end in site for this issue. ### 1/5 — Trash- zero stars it if I could *2025-10-18* I got this and then paid for premium to not get ads and nothing changed I still had ads. I’ve never been this disappointed in an app before and I was looking forward to supporting the site because I enjoy it but app is complete trash unless your ok with ads even when you pay for no ads. ### 1/5 — This was my fav app to read on *2025-09-09, version 1.7.1* Idk what happened but now the only sites it links to are porn sites and you can’t even see the discussion section it used to have. Seems less like a reading app and more a gooning app now ### 1/5 — I cant read anything *2025-09-09, version 1.7.1* So the app usually works pretty well but the browse tab where u got to click on to the website u wanna read from wont load. Has the app crashed or can some one help me fix this ### 1/5 — The new update *2025-07-16, version 1.6.7* The new update erased my bookmarks and I can’t search like I used to don’t like it at all ### 1/5 — Ads *2025-05-28, version 1.6.4* I have the no ads subscription and after the update I keep getting ads nonstop pls fix this problem ### 1/5 — I cant read anything *2025-05-17, version 1.6.3* So the app usually works pretty well but the browse tab where u got to click on to the website u wanna read from wont load. Has the app crashed or can some one help me fix this ### 1/5 — Ads galore *2025-04-29, version 1.6.2* I pay for the VIP Platinum solely so I don’t come across ads, yet I’m still seeing them. ### 1/5 — Browser extension *2024-12-08* The browser extensions don’t load even after deleting and reinstalling app. Was using it fine for a while but then browser is just constantly stuck on the yellow loading circle ### 1/5 — The app with not open *2024-09-16, version 1.5.2* I literally have been sitting on the starting screen for 5 hours I’ve deleted the app I’ve restarted my phone idk what to do but this sucks ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Update error *2026-04-08* Love the app it’s amazing but I feel like with every update something goes wrong ### 5/5 — Top 1 *2026-04-08* This is Probably the best app I’ve seen to read novels, manhwa, and comics. And the fact that I have a plug in on my phone which gets rid of ads makes this 100x better. Being able to click on different sites with a few button without having to search in the sites on browsers makes it even better. ### 5/5 — My library won’t load *2025-10-18* My library won’t load at all every time I try to use it all I get is a gray screen. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app twice and it still won’t work. I can’t even access any of the websites because the same thing happens. **Developer response:** please update new version ### 5/5 — Good *2025-09-14, version 1.7.1* Finally no ads ### 5/5 — Asura *2025-09-10, version 1.7.1* honestly jus amazing been reading for over 2 years now ### 5/5 — One of the best Manhwa, & Manga Apps *2025-01-21* I have used a lot other Manhwa & Manga app readers, this app has them all. It’s a little different having to go onto a browser, but it works. There are of course some glitches but nothing you can’t overcome. They have anime websites, Manhwa only, Manga, or Manhua sites available. Highly recommend, you can even log into the browser options and it’ll have your info when you click back into whatever site. ### 5/5 — Good place to read *2024-12-31* The app is a link to websites were I can read the stories I want to read WITHOUT all those shade and gross adds and other stuff. It also loads things pretty smoothly. I like it so far ### 5/5 — Perfect *2024-09-18, version 1.5.3* This app literally allows me to go on any manga/manhwa site I want and save them to access later. ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2024-03-02, version 1.3.4* I can continuously read the stories I want ### 5/5 — Manhwa unavailability *2024-01-13* I really enjoy using this app but what bothers me is that when I’m reading something after a couple of days it becomes unavailable on the app is it a way you guys can fix that? --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
