### 2/5 — It can’t export!

*2024-04-20, version 5.1.1*

It can not export your project!!! That’s awful

### 2/5 — So Promising!!

*2024-02-24, version 5.1.1*

I really tho it this app would be fun! It looked great it looked professional. I loved the fact that I could map out my characters and stuff, it isn’t like this at all. Sure you can map out your stuff but it is very low quality and overall I would not recommend this app to any aspiring authors get google docs or something.

### 3/5 — Umstellen auf Englisch

*2023-01-22, version 5.1.1*

Ich gebe mal ungeprüft 3 Sterne. Die Umstellung auf Englisch ist etwas kompliziert bzw. irreführend. Standardmäßig ist die App auf Englisch eingestellt aber man sieht nur chinesische Schriftzeichen - bis auf den Button auf der Setting Seite wo English steht. Hier muss man die Sprache auf Chinesisch umstellen, bestätigen und dann wieder auf Englisch stellen. Jetzt sind alle Menüpunkte auch auf Englisch. Settings ist auf der ersten Seite der vierte Kasten von unten gesehen. Anmerkung: Zur Bestätigung geht ein kleines Fenster auf. Entgegen normaler Vorgehensweise ist der linke, blau unterlegte Punkt das ok. Hoffe konnte etwas helfen, werde mir das Programm jetzt mal ansehen.

### 4/5 — Decent

*2022-11-13, version 5.1.1*

By all means probably the best app to use free but oh man others look more promising for those who have money, although I do think this has some good features too.

### 3/5 — Add more languages, please!

*2022-07-03, version 4.9.1*

As I can see, your app is really good and deserves more people to use it, but it is almost impossible for people who don’t speak Chinese.

### 3/5 — Review

*2022-06-11, version 4.9.1*

So far so good. The layouts simple and it’s easy to navigate.

### 1/5 — Upgrade does not work

*2021-11-16, version 4.9.1*

I was using this app for about a week and decided I wanted to upgrade from the free version, paid for it but my account never updated. I kept getting promoted to upgrade and eventually just clicked on the upgrade button again to which I was then prompted that i already had the professional version. I emailed the customer support email proved, no response, then I just couldn’t log into my account. Still no response from customer support email, I now have an open dispute to reverse the charge.

### 3/5 — Question

*2021-10-05*

If I write something will it go public? Will people see it easily?

### 1/5 — BADD HORRIBLE

*2021-09-29, version 4.9.1*

Do not get this app!!!! It asks for your email!!!!! Come on!!!!!!!!!!!

### 2/5 — Great concept- poor execution

*2021-07-04, version 4.9.1*

Made an account to see the features. I was so excited… go to add a profile picture, and the app crashes and it logged me out… I go to log back in and I keep getting a message popping up in what I assume is Mandarin? Which I don’t understand and can’t copy to translate it. Thought I fixed the problem, but then it was constant loading with nothing happening… really disappointed, it looked like everything I needed in an app. Hoping to get an update when the bugs are fixed

### 3/5 — Interested

*2021-07-01, version 4.9.1*

The app has potential, I have just started using it and so far its a good way to organize your thoughts and ideas, this app would do well with a little more depth in helping you create characters and seance with more information to fill out. But other than that I still have some playing around with the app to do.

### 3/5 — English

*2021-06-18, version 4.9.1*

The app has a lot of great features and seems to work well in the short time I’ve spent with it, but for an app focused on writing there are an absurd amount of spelling and grammatical errors. Every instruction has at least one mistake. If you cleaned this up it would help this app a lot.

### 1/5 — Dissatisfied

*2021-05-13, version 4.9.1*

I had high hopes for this app. I’ve tried for days now...I can’t create an account, it just spins then nothing. I also can’t save a book or import anything. Needs a huge update!

### 3/5 — Parece bom

*2021-04-11, version 4.9.1*

Parece ser bom porém não tem em português e quando coloco a opção "english" não muda para o inglês

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — R

*2024-08-07, version 5.1.1*

It is really confusing and tricky to navigate

### 1/5 — Broken

*2023-12-02, version 5.1.1*

Absolutely doesn’t work on iPhone, there’s no way to start writing, I’d this another e-reader that sells already written books while pretending to be a tool for new authors? 
It is harder to work out than Pages or any writing app on the AppStore 0/10.

### 1/5 — ?

*2023-06-21, version 5.1.1*

Is it supposed to be in Chinese???🤔

### 1/5 — Laughably horrible

*2023-05-06, version 5.1.1*

The user interface shown in the pictures is NOTHING like the actual app. The app is horribly formatted and cheap with everything spelled wrong and instructions almost unintelligible. 
Opening line on the UI screen is “you have not writed anything yet. Press add button to start.” (There is not add button— and yes the writed typo was actually a thing…) 
You cannot even do the majority of the things that are promised in the app description. Pretty much a scam.

### 1/5 — 到底？

*2022-08-07, version 4.9.1*

根本不能註冊啊，這app 還能用嗎？

### 1/5 — There is no English language support

*2022-07-27, version 4.9.1*

This application is not support English language.

### 1/5 — 好難註冊

*2022-06-30, version 4.9.1*

不能註冊

### 1/5 — Tons of technical errors, bad UI and misleading

*2022-02-21, version 4.9.1*

Seems like more of a wattpad type publishing app, my app was bugging out like crazy and I couldn’t even find where to use most of the advertised features and even if they are there the point is that I couldn’t easily find and use them not if they’re actually there or not. Bad tool for writers 👎

### 1/5 — It’s not English app

*2021-12-18, version 4.9.1*

At beginning said that you can put the app in English or another languages and after the introduction the app force you to put everything on Chinese.

### 1/5 — Schlecht

*2021-11-30, version 4.9.1*

Gibt es leider nur auf Chinesisch:/

### 5/5 — Review

*2023-10-16, version 5.1.1*

I don't know why this app only has 3 stars it is the perfect app for filmmakers who could use a tutorial through.

### 5/5 — The best app I have got

*2022-05-05, version 4.9.1*

You can write books read others peoples.I don’t pay the premium but without it it is truly worth getting.How can a app be this good it just unbelievable.It has mind maps to help and a limit of words so you don’t write that much.So many people have interesting books they made or you can be a reader or the person that rates books.So many roles and things to do.5 stars!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2022-01-25, version 4.9.1*

I love this! Everything is laid out so nicely and you can build character and story maps!

### 5/5 — Just what i was looking for

*2021-10-05, version 4.9.1*

As a visual organizer the ability to map out your story in a visual web has been instrumental in helping me finally organize my story.

### 5/5 — >:(
