i love this app and the fact that its leaving breaks my heart
ive been an avid bilibili user for 2-3 years now and i have to say i love everything about the app. though i'll have to admit ive been using it a little less frequently since the wait times for comics were added, i completely understand why they were added and i am still a devotee and i absolutely adore this app and the comics on it. the stories i read and the experiences i had in the comments section of many amazing comics is unforgettable. i enjoyed my time on this app so so much. i have found so many of my comfort characters and countless beautiful works on this app, and i would be refreshing my page over and over again when new chapters were meant to be released to read them right when they first dropped. those times were some of my happiest.
this app literally impacted my life. it did so much good to me and for me. i adore it whole-heartedly and beyond comprehension. it is so so devastating that its going to be shutting down soon- it puts a void in me. it makes me unimaginably hurt and sad. i am going to be missing this app and all the beautiful times it gave me. thank you for existing me and comforting me beyond measure. i love you bilibili comics!! i will forever remember you and the experiences you gave me. thank you for everything. xx

Alright for the most part, but…..
It’s a good platform to find Chinese manhua and novels to enjoy, but only to a certain extent. The waiting system is good, but the time fluctuations for the waiting can make you lose interest in stories or even forget about them, it varies from 60seconds-24hrs. And that’s just for one chapter. And then if you buy coins you can run out fast as some stories are a few coins per chapter, and others are up to 80 coins per chapter. Which is crazy considering how many coins you get for the dollar amounts they cost to purchase! Overall, i use this to find stories, see if I’m interested, and then find them on other platforms, otherwise i just let them go if i can’t. Good concept, but with the way tappytoon, tapas, snd lezhin are set up, and the way folks scanlate stories online, they’re way too overpriced for how little they offer, especially when you can just buy the stories once completed (and a lot of them are completed) for cheaper than what the chapters on here cost.

Perfect Except for One Thing!
I got this app to read “Heaven’s Official Blessing” at first but now have a growing list of series to read. The wait times for series makes sense to me and is fair, and being able to decorate your avatar is genius! It brings you back to keep reading!
My only issue is the 30 day trial when you get those items. I had the idea that when you get the clothing items that you’ll have them in your inventory forever and there would be different seasonal events (somewhat like a gacha game except with avatar clothing and reading). However, you only get those clothes for a certain amount of time (around 29-30 days usually) which is a bummer. Besides that, this app is great and I enjoy it greatly! If that 30 day trial was removed, it would be perfect!

Screen view to narrow
I love this app, the reason why I am giving 4 stars instead of 5, is because, no matter where I read mangas when using the app, whether is on the iPad or Chromebook, the screen is too small, and zooming won’t help because it gets the picture out of range. Is there a solution to this?. Reading the mangas on the website is no use, it only allows few episodes and the rest have to read them on the app, which is fine if the resolution was to full screen. Also, when will Heaven’s Officials Blessing will resume? This is the international app and we do not speak Mandarin so we are missing a great story. As I mentioned before, willing to pay for it and of course, improve the app.? Thank you

Pretty good app but wait times
so i’ve been reading on this app for quite a while. what you’ll see is it will let you read a book to a certain number of chapters. it will stop you and have you wait like eight hours to read the next chapter and sometimes you even have to wait 24 hours until you get to read the next chapter. other than waiting for the comic. So yeah it’s actually a really good app to get

It’s ok.
I’ve been using the app for a while and I’ve noticed that almost ALL of the stories are one genre; romance. I don’t have a problem with romance comics but when the only thing on the app is romance it’s a bit frustrating. I hate that I have to wait so long just to read another chapter. A whole day?! WHAT!?! Most of the stories here are bland and you have to look very hard to find a good comic! Half of the time the biggest thing about the anime is just that they have hot girls. That’s literally it. I have only been able to find 6 comics that I like. Out of all those comics you have 6. Disappointing!

Almost, but not quite, great.
My only wish is that the App would stay in landscape mode. If I select to get access by selecting twitter, most of the time it switches to portrait mode, and the little orientation icon disappears. It stays that way until the app is closed for a few minutes. It sometimes happens when choosing Facebook as well. I tend to operate my Ipad in landscape. When the app does this, it squishes the portrait mode into taking up the middle of the screen, too.

I love Bilibili!
Bilibili is a great app, I’ve discovered so many more mangas to read! And I’m absolutely loving all of them. This review as going to be short as I don’t know how to make it ridiculously long like others. I think Bilibili is great to find more mangas to read, I recommend it. (Although Bilibili is sucking my money up like a black hole) The waiting time tear 1 for some are so long 😭 Sometimes it’s 1 minute, I’m thankful for that but sometimes for tear 1 it’s 6 hours.. That is how my money is just gone 🫠

It’s alright if it weren’t for what I experienced.
I just downloaded the app today. It was very good until it reached the point where I have to either wait or buy coins. Not that I’m against supporting the app and the authors buy paying but what was supposed to $0.99 plus tax, went through my card as about $22. Of course it may just be a different purchase of mine that went through late, but because it is just named as an Apple app payment I have no clue as to what it actually is. I’ll change my rating if I find that I was wrong of course. But it’s late at night right now and I’m frustrated with the sudden payment that I have no recollection of and this is the only payment I’ve made so far for an app in the past few weeks.
Again, I will apologize if I’m wrong. I really am hoping that I’m wrong because this is a really great app from what I can see so far, but if it turns out that I’m right, I hope people will be able to see this and learn from my mistakes. (Though I’m probably the only one)

Love it! A really good place to read stories~
Okay, so I was sad at first that most of the stories I was reading changed from a waiting timer system to payment system to be able to read.
However, Bilibili was able to change all or most stories back to the waiting timer to be able to continue reading for free!
It was a change that is just highly appreciated as it allows more people to continue reading without needing to pay money in exchange of coins.
I am just so happy I’ll get to continue reading my favorite stories after all without having to buy coins constantly. Thank you!! <3

Paywall messed everything up
Ok I had the app when everything was either you wait a certain amount of time or you can pay. The times being 1 minute then 6 then one hour then 6 hours and finally 12 hours being the longest countdown. However now the countdown is 1 minute 1 hour 6 hours hours 18 hours and finally 24. Im sorry but the absolute difference in time? And now there are some comics where you HAVE to pay. And it doesn’t even tell you that when you first start reading so you can get totally invested in a comic and suddenly your on chapter 54 and now it’s paid to read. I try my best to read comics on their original websites to support the creator but sometimes I have no choice but to use other websites just because of the pay wall. Also before when you first opened up the chapter the countdown started but now you have to read through the whole chapter just for the countdown to activate. This means even if you read the whole chapter if you didn’t scroll down far enough the countdown wouldn’t have started and you wouldn’t get your free episode. These updates keep making the app worse instead of improving it

love/hate relationship.
so i really do like the platform layout, it’s pretty easy to find things and understand how everything works. having to wait up to 24 hours to read a chapter is also kinda annoying but it’s fine since most apps are like that these days. i think my biggest complaint is the fact the avatar cards expire after 30 days. it would be nice if you actually got to keep and collect them, or maybe even make them more ‘limited addition’ and having people be able to add eachother and trade cards. i like that you get a sort of reward after each chapter honestly it’s really fun, but when i realize you only have them for limited time it kinda made me not wanna use the app all together. i hope they make it so you can actually keep them permanently. :(also it would be nice if you can save different outfits. you can only piece together one outfit at a time, i think there should be a feature where you can save multiples. otherwise you just have to re-apply all the items over and over again. i hope someone takes my thoughts into consideration! lots of people on reddit complain about this so i’m just spreading the word and also agreeing entirely that some changes with the avatar stuff need to happen!!! also making the shoes separately too. that bugs me a little bit 😭😂🥺

It is so bad I wanna give a it a zero, but that’s not possible, so I give it a one
At first it was great; interesting comics and it free comic as long as you waited but as time when on the comics that you could wait for we’re now costing coins. I mean I wouldn’t have been mad about it If they had just told me that at a center point it would cost coins but no they let you get into it then start charging you. ALSO idk if it was just my phone but the picture would come out blurry or the word were either too zoom in or zoom out making it difficult to read/see what’s going on. So overall I give it a 0️⃣ not a 1 a 0️⃣

Was amazing before the coin system
It used to be completely free with wait times for some stories. However, now a lot of stories you must buy coins for because there aren’t wait times anymore. Very disappointing especially since now I won’t be able to finish many of my favorite comics. Even if the wait times for chapters were a bit annoying, that is 10x better then not being able to read them at all. Hopefully a compromise can happen in the future or I’ll probably just delete the app.

Trashy asian comics AND dress up?!
I think I may have found my favorite comic app. I love the ability to dress up an avatar, though I wish there was a way to only get clothing of your preferred gender. At least you can fuse or dismantle unwanted stuff. I don’t mind having to wait to read the next chapter if it means I don’t have to pay- Though I’ve run into comics that required you pay with coins and didn’t have any timers. That’s why I gave it a 4 star, I love it, but it has its little issues

Great App, but I’m poor
I love this app! I love the exclusive comics, I love reading Heaven Official’s Blessing, I love the variety of genres. But, I started to become a little confused when wait times were added. They weren’t horrible, but just annoying. And now, I can’t even read some of my favorite comics due to the new purchasing system. I’m not finically well off so I can’t buy coins to continue reading some comics, which can be annoying when I’m 48 episodes into a comic and can’t continue reading. I love the stories and the wait times were alright, but this new pay to read system infuriates me and make me feel like I’m poor.

No point in downloading this anymore
I’ve loved this app, the fact that I could read all the comics I love for free or with a wait timer to access the episodes, but now they’ve added a paywall to almost every comic I read. There’s no point in even reading the new releases because they end up being pay only. This goes against everything and the reason I downloaded this app. Literally ALL of my favorite comics are now pay to read. And while I would love to read them I’m broke and can’t afford to. Before there was already the option to pay AND a wait timer for those who can’t afford it but now it’s just not possible. Definitely not worth getting if you’re broke like me. Bilibili I think this was the worst thing you could’ve done for this all. Goodbye everyone I no longer have this app.

Paywalled
Used to not be paywalled and you just had to wait a set amount of time for the next episode to unlock. Which you could pay to skip the wait.
But now they’ve started paywalling a majority of the comics. There’s no way to filter which ones are and aren’t paywalled. So you could be reading one and start with timers and then just get cut off.
No way to earn coins through watching ads or anything either.
Paying for access for episodes for like a couple of titles may be economically feasible, but it adds up quickly. Especially when the episodes are generally pretty short and may update more than once a week.

I wish I didn’t have to write about this
I really love this app, truly. However, the app has been making a majority of their “free comics” locked behind a paywall. I really didn’t mind having to wait for hours to read an already-released chapter of a series, but a mandatory payment in unacceptable. A lot of people are unable to enjoy comics now since they have to pay but are unable to do so. This goes against what this app promises: having free comics to read. I’ve had this app for awhile, as they’ve adjusted waiting times and gotten rid of other comics, but this is the last straw. Please, don’t support purchasing episodes.

Disappointed
When I first got this app I was so happy I didn’t need to pay money to read, there wasn’t any blocked chapters, just had to wait a certain amount of time until I could read the next chapter. And now suddenly almost all the comics I had been reading, I can’t read anymore because in order to read the next one I need to buy with the apps coins. The problem is you don’t earn the coins through reading or prize boxes you have to buy them with actual money first and I can’t afford to buy thousands of coins just so I can read. If this can’t get fixed back to just the timer than sadly I’m going to have to delete this app. :(
