*2019-04-10, version 1.15*

This app is fantastic. I like the fact that beside writing stories, I can take pictures of my surroundings or my drawings that go with my stories. I have a few stories right now. And, I might have more in the works.

### 5/5 — Best creative space

*2018-09-28, version 1.13*

Hands down the best place for writers and all creatives alike. This has been the only 100% positive social media experience. Everyone here is passionate about writing, reading and everything cerebral. A supportive, constructive community of intelligent folks and in truly blessed to have found Commaful :)

### 5/5 — A happy positive home for writers

*2018-08-14, version 1.09*

I really love this app and platform.
I have never had the courage to share my writing before, but as soon as I joined Commaful, it was clear to me that this was a judgement-free place for all. 

I am relatively new to the app, but thus far my experience has been that everyone is very connected to one another, offering positive feedback, useful tips and suggestions to their fellow writers :)

I highly recommend giving it a chance! I honestly never write reviews, (so this is saying a lot, trust me ;)), but my positive experience so far on the app was something I felt compelled to share! 
Thanks for reading 
Love and light!

### 5/5 — Something fun

*2018-06-30, version 1.08*

I am not a huge poetry or reading fan but this app won me over. Tried it after seeing it recommended on a book blog I follow. I found the stories in the app really inspiring. Something fun, something to learn, and something to feel for all types of readers!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App is very slow.

*2019-01-25, version 1.15*

The app runs very slow on its mobile platform. The desktop version is much better and smoother.

### 2/5 — Commaful is great but the app has bugs.

*2022-08-08, version 2.11*

First, it takes ages to load, but that could be my internet. However, in this new update, I have one chance to tap on my profile icon. After that it disappears and I have to restart the app if I want to access my profile again. The notification icons will say I have 80 notifications and when I tap on it, it says I have no notifications. It's only when I restart the app that the notifications appear.

### 2/5 — Slow

*2019-07-17, version 1.17*

This app is very slow.  It always says I have notifications but never reloads the notification section so I can see what they are and half the time the app won’t even load to open .

### 3/5 — Freezes up often

*2022-05-16, version 2.08*

Other than that it’s ok. Good luck

### 3/5 — Crashing/White Screen

*2019-04-12, version 1.15*

I like this app but I haven’t been able to use it due to it crashing. I open the app and then shortly after the screen turns white. How can I fix this?

### 4/5 — Love The Idea

*2023-12-19*

I love the idea and I love the ability to connect with other writers but the glitches and freezing drive me crazy!

### 4/5 — Amazing!

*2020-11-19, version 1.17*

I have been using Ckmmaful for the past year or so now, and I just decided to get the app. It is super convenient and a really great way to write in a kind and constructive community! Only problem is that it takes a where tooad sometimes but other than that it is an amazing app and I highly recommend!!

### 4/5 — This app is awesome!!

*2020-08-25, version 1.17*

This app is great for kids to share their story’s!!

### 4/5 — Ok

*2020-04-07, version 1.17*

I think it is a great app but needs more categories.

### 4/5 — This all is just alright

*2020-02-03, version 1.17*

I mean this is a good app but it is almost impossible to write stuff on it ( you have to write on a computer instead) and the search almost never loads. Otherwise I think it’s a pretty good app for reading other people’s poems and stories ;)

### 5/5 — What a great app!

*2021-11-10, version 2.00*

I love writing, and I wanted to create a story that people from around the world can enjoy, with no payments from them, or me. I was searching on google for some websites that I could create stories on, and came across this website. I immediately created an account and downloaded the app. Honestly, I love it! I have just started a new story called One Night Stands and Quiet Guys. It’s a continuing story and I have only just uploaded part one, but I plan on creating much more in the future, including other stories that include LGBTQ+ and Pride. My account is kelsie_ryans and I plan on posting kid-based stories and adult-based stories on this app. I believe this is a good app for short stories, and if you want to create a series you can create it in sections. The community seems kind and respectful, which I am glad to have an app with such great users.

### 5/5 — It’s cool
