I did a three day subscription canceled after the first day email because it did not show up in my subscriptions on my phone. There was no way to cancel in the app. They have not even responded to the email except for an initial blanket response so I’m having to do a fraud investigation with my bank cancel my debit card. Strongly advise against this app.

There’s no option to cancel subscription.
Good! Love it! Books are awesome!
I’ve tried to cancel subscription but they won’t respond I’ve been charged once since asking and I’m due to be charged again in a few days
Fingers crossed it stays that way
Horrible app!!! Don’t waste your time. I wish I read the reviews before I started the trial. It doesn’t pop up on your subscriptions but they also don’t email you back
Great app and good stories to read I love it
Only a few chapters in but the stories are well written and catch the readers attention.
2 adds a day for 1 page and they just upped it to 10$ for 3 days disgusting and they have 4 apps attached so even if u pay doesn’t mean ull have access to the story’s u want
That’s it’s and that’s all
Do not download, they tell you to contact them to cancel a subscription I have done this with 2 days before renewal of the subscription and my request was ignored. Via the contact us button and email. Another payment taken today and again contacted. There is no option to cancel subscription via the app/App Store just via a stupid contact us button l/email that they do not reply to! Reporting as fraud as they have taken money 2 day after a cancellation request!

Nothing worth reading on this app. They WILL scam you with a 2.99 “subscription” but will not give you any options to cancel the subscription and will continue to charge you. DO NOT trust them.
Love love love
Horrible app! DO NOT GET THIS APP! The books are not finished and after reading about 10 chapters, it goes into a completely different book! Also makes it impossible to cancel any subscription. I signed up for a $2.99 trial and it has repeatedly charged me every day! I tried to cancel it and it tricks you by saying you sign up through apple subscription but it doesn’t show up there AT ALL! You have to go through your bank and get your card changed and report it as fraud! 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Paid for week subscription and app doesn’t work. Give me my $$ back
This app and company have been horrible! The app doesn’t load if it does you can’t use the coins you earn each day. The app requires you to subscribe. If you try the trial, you cannot cancel and no matter whether it works or not PayPal will not refund they want you to reach out to the company. The company does not respond! Horrible experience!

Purchased a discounted rate for the week did not get it and it charged me twice for it and not only two days later charged me TWICE AGAIN for 15$ been trying to get help cancel subscription which I can’t find ! I don’t recommend! Very upset how they are scamming
If I could give zero stars I would. Paid the promotional 2.99 to read a story which was terrible. They have now charged me twice of 14.99 after making it impossible to unsubscribe
Don’t fall floor it
This app should be taken down for false advertising nothing about it is free like they advertised you only get to read 5-6 chapters before they make u pay and WEEKLY at that as if people don’t have real bills,clothes, and food to pay for DO NOT DOWNLOAD
