### 3/5 — Loading

*2026-07-22, version 2.5.0*

It keeps reloading author page and can’t save story
Also have to keep restoring purchase 
Please fix this

### 2/5 — Good but keeps booting me out of my book

*2026-06-17*

I haven’t used it that much but what I do know is that it keeps booting me off my book when I’m reading and goes back to the search thingy. I think this could be a good app but that one feature hasn’t made the experience enjoyable sooo.. 

Short but sweet :P 
Xx

### 1/5 — Most egregious ad placement I’ve ever seen.

*2026-06-13, version 2.5.0*

This isn’t an app, it’s a slideshow of ads with a .5 second break between them. Even the page to look at the paid subscription will have an ad pop up as you’re looking at the extortionist prices to avoid further ads. The log in page to sign in to your account gets covered by an ad when you open it. 

The worst part is, the ads are bugged or just aggressively app-breaking on purpose and they can’t be closed, not after 5, 30, or 60 seconds. I respect my own time to have not waited longer than that. 

Genuine scrap app and company, feels like this level of greed should be gassing the app ToS.

### 1/5 — simply Unusable

*2026-06-12*

The app spam add, and can't load stories. Can't believe this pass store review

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-04-27, version 2.5.0*

I use to love this app. I even paid for the ad free version when that was a one time thing but now with it being a monthly subscription… I’d leave 0 stars if I could.

### 3/5 — Issues Loading Story with Chapters

*2026-04-19, version 2.5.0*

I have had this app for several years now and anytime I save a story with chapters to read offline, it’s quickly saved. 

But now, I have noticed when I try to save a story with chapters, it takes forever to save or does not save at all, which is very frustrating. As for singular stories (with no chapters), they are saved just fine. 

So if you can please fix these issues, that would be great.

### 5/5 — Mha

*2026-02-01, version 2.5.0*

I LOVE MY HERO FAN FIC NOW

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2025-12-13, version 2.5.0*

Bought the month subscription for ad free still had ads and could not access my profile. It kept trying to open an ad every few seconds. Very disappointed in this app.

### 3/5 — Needs Some Work

*2025-12-02, version 2.5.0*

Overall good app. I'd give it 5 stars but there is one prevailing issue preventing the issuance of five stars that being the fact that I can't save any stories to my library. It used to work, I used to be able to add stories, close the app, and come back to them later but now nope. No more it just will not work please fix this.

### 1/5 — Seems abandoned

*2025-11-24, version 2.5.0*

I used to live this app. But it seems abandoned now. No updates. Developer website not found, last copyright was 2021 and it's the end of 2025. It auto renewed by subscription for no ads but I have ads.
