Period. Not only that there is so many glitches I am in the us my day restarts after 12 pm est where I’m at but the stories don’t up date till 4-6 pm est. sometimes due the app difference it glitches and I won’t get updated for several days at a time. When I have contacted them about the issues sent screen shots to show that it drops 2 new chapters daily, that the last update was more the 24 hours ago sometimes it’s been 3 days and that I haven’t gotten any of the new unlocked chapters that it shows is out. The immediately instead of trying to fix it go oh those are privilege chapters I said no they’re not I even text the writer her is what should be out but they’ll tell me I’m wrong and double down on its “privilege chapters”. Just do your job and fix your app and stop chafing ungodly amounts for the stories if that was changed it be a 5 start rating for sure. **Developer response:** Thanks for your support cuz it helps protect the rights of creators to receive remuneration for use of their works :) Our next version is in progress and more opportunities will be available for you to get more free coins and fast passes. ### 4/5 — Walker of the worlds *2026-06-06, version 4.3.6* Wish there were more ways to earn coins in app, great overall though. ( one of my favorite novels ever though!!!) ### 4/5 — Updating slow or not at all *2026-02-10, version 4.3.6* I love this app but I found that things are not updating correctly in multiple areas. Like the Free reads section. I tried to read a Limited Time Free and it was not free. ### 2/5 — Normal *2025-10-01, version 4.3.1* Tienen muchísimas historias que te enganchan al máximo, pero me parece abusivo que cobren tanto por capítulo, así nadie puede permitirse leerse muchos cómics a la vez, debido a su gran costo. Lo que menos sentido tiene aún es que al tiempo vuelve a bloquearse y hay que volver a pagar. Si ya pago una vez, no me parece justo volver a pagar lo mismo. ### 4/5 — How Do I Become an Author? *2025-09-02* I really don’t have many problems with it as a reader, except maybe that I can only get rewards reading for a maximum 4(?) hours. I’m really interested in becoming an author on the app but I don’t know how to do that or if it’s even possible. I’m really hoping to get an answer on that, but I suppose it doesn’t need to be this app I post on. ### 2/5 — Better than most (Changed my mind…*edit) *2025-08-21* Cons: After reading for less than four hours it makes you wait until tomorrow to get more coins (The reason I didn’t put comics coins as a con is because comics take longer with more thought and time than a book could ever be, so it’s understandable why it’s more). *edit* Getting a tad more money hungry by the day. No more ads to watch for passes or coins 😐 Pros: You can get coins EASILY by reading, if you have a book you want to read but can’t bc you don’t have any coins, pick a new book in the FREE library and read that until you have enough. Books in the FREE library are actually goated too, it’s not just random books, it’s UNDERRATED books You can do missions to get coins and passes for FREE, with just a little time commitment ### 3/5 — Too expensive *2025-08-18, version 4.3.1* I have found some stories I like but you get to where it’s money, money, and more money to continue reading. You could buy a whole actual book a lot cheaper. There is No way to watch Ads to continue like most other apps. Some of the wording and translation is not correct - so I struggle to keep up at times. Misspelled words also have me guessing at what the writer is trying to say. I just wish it was easier to continue without killing the pocket book. ### 2/5 — Bound to the three Alphas *2025-06-29* I already had up to 174 chapters read and every day two chapters were released. But suddenly today I couldn’t access chapter 175 because somehow my story was now on chapter 11 and it would only go up to Chapter 140 and I would have had to add a”lot more money to get it back to chapter 175. I’ve lost all those chapters and now I don’t know how this story is progressing. ### 1/5 — Preços irreais *2025-06-15* Coisa cara demais,sem clareza do custo das moedas, sem opção para outras formas de continuar a ler. ### 1/5 — Expensive difficult to cancel *2025-06-15, version 4.2.5* Typical pay to play after getting you caught up in story ultimately costing far more then reading book series in existence. ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-06-10* Die Preise sind wucher. Dazu hab ich die App sehr lange nicht benutzt und wollte jetzt meinen Account löschen. Dies geht aber aus irgendwelchen Gründen nicht? Ich hab Chereads kontaktiert und hoffe darauf, dass eine Antwort kommt. Diese App will nur Informationen klauen. Absolut nicht empfehlenswert. ### 1/5 — Can’t unlock the chapter *2025-06-01, version 4.2.1* I am trying to unlock a chapter but it doesn’t load. Says retry 1002 or something. Please solve the issue ### 1/5 — Log In Issues *2025-05-27* Be super wary. I spent more money than I care to admit over three-ish months reading a story I was hooked on. I purchased coins and privileges so I could read the chapters as they came out. Overnight, the app logged me out and I’ve not been able to log in since. I’ve tried every account from Instagram, tik tok, Facebook, Apple and Gmail. Somehow, all of my information from the past couple of months is wiped. I can still see all the receipts of payment and subscription in my Apple account but magically my account on this app no longer exists. I emailed help support and still have yet to receive a response 5 days later. Good stories but high prices and potential risks. Very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Money gone *2025-05-23, version 4.2.1* I randomly woke up today to find my account gone!!!! After I had spent so much money on here for months. Reached out to customer service and nothing smh. Never again!!!! ### 3/5 — Not one of them but three *2025-05-22* Book is amazing however I am up to 118 chapters. Spent over $50. Just bought 500 more for $9.99 and can’t use them unless I subscribe to a plan. Way over priced for books. I agree this one is one you can’t put down but very greedy. Now I guess I wait who knows how long to get finish it ### 1/5 — Rip off *2025-05-16, version 4.2.1* Stop making people pay to read ### 1/5 — Unexpected romance: love & hustle *2025-04-25, version 4.0.1* They say u get 1chapter/day but u can go weeks without any updates. And not just this book but a lot of them. I’m finishing the 2 I started and changing apps this one is terrible ### 1/5 — free library doesn’t work *2025-04-09, version 4.0.1* i can’t use my free library in random chapters of the novel ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — What a ridiculously expensive way to read a book. *2026-05-31* The book I’ve been reading is about 1000 chapters. The chapters are quite short, some repetitive, and I’ve done the sums. It’ll cost over $400 to read the book. Just crazy. Guess I wont be reading it. When you can buy published novels in paperback for a fraction of the price. What a stupid system. ### 1/5 — Irregular charges *2026-05-26* The app made weekly irregular charges to my credit card, without a subscription and refused to proceed with the refund, instructing me to contact the card company. ### 1/5 — NÃO VALE A PENA *2026-04-02* Tiraram todos os benefícios gratuitos. Não vale amai a pena. ### 1/5 — Do not get sucked in *2026-03-13, version 4.3.6* This app is horrible. Error messages all the time. Emails to support go unanswered. Lost money I spent because the app logs you out and you can’t get back in. On top of that, authors go months without updating their “ongoing” books. Ugh! ### 1/5 — Won’t cancel my subscription *2026-03-05, version 4.3.6* Decided to cancel . They keep pulling money every month. Disputing though Paypal now. ### 1/5 — Error while logging in *2025-11-10* Just took payment for monthly subscription and have been logged out - can’t log back in due to error, can’t get any help 🤬 ### 1/5 — Greed? Yes please *2025-08-05* If you want to breath more than once you have to pay ### 1/5 — Expensive *2025-07-20, version 4.3.0* Did you end up here from Facebook too? Total letdown. You’ll end up spending 100+ dollars and the book isn’t even complete. The so-called “chapters” are so short, It’s a crime to even call them that. Don’t waste your money here! You could have multiple books for what it cost to read on this app. I am embarrassed to say I’ve spent money here . Don’t be like me ! Fair warning. ### 1/5 — If you it read to you for accessibility reasons don’t waste your time! *2025-07-13, version 4.3.0* There is No way to have it read to you on the app! Not inclusive at all! ### 1/5 — Total waste they keep making you pay money to read episodes *2025-07-01* You buy coins then you have to pay to unlock chapters. So you can buy coins then they purposely lock chapters up and you have to pay for privilege and the privilege expires then you have to do that again. Real money scam. If you want to rad a book on this app, find it on Chereads then search for it on internet at least it’s better than this scam ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Tuan Smith *2026-01-27, version 4.3.6* Seru banget👍 ### 5/5 — 273 *2025-05-04, version 4.2.0* Excelente aplicación ### 5/5 — Great for reading *2025-02-19* Wish the chapters were cheaper or it was easier to earn free coins but I now addicted to all of these wonderful stories and can only read a few chapters a night. Or save my coins to read a great. ### 5/5 — Dokter jenius tunanetra *2025-02-18, version 4.0.1* Jalan cerita nya bagus ### 5/5 — Better than most *2025-02-06* Cons: After reading for less than four hours it makes you wait until tomorrow to get more coins (The reason I didn’t put comics coins as a con is because comics take longer with more thought and time than a book could ever be, so it’s understandable why it’s more). Pros: You can get coins EASILY by reading, if you have a book you want to read but can’t bc you don’t have any coins, pick a new book in the FREE library and read that until you have enough. Books in the FREE library are actually goated too, it’s not just random books, it’s UNDERRATED books You can do missions to get coins and passes for FREE, with just a little time commitment ### 5/5 — y emocionar en cada página. *2024-11-21, version 3.10.5* [Nombre del escritor] es un talentoso autor con una pasión por las palabras y un estilo único que conecta con sus lectores.
