$10 a week!!!šŸ˜­āœŒļøhell nah

Used to get in this all the time but not for $10 a week that’s crazy who In their right mind would pay $10 a week to read horror stories

Use to be the best app

This app used to have stories that actually spiked my adrenaline. Now, all this app is, is a money grab. You have to pay $9.99 just to get anything. Worst thing they could have done to this app.

$9.99 a week?

I remember when this app was completely free to use. I decided to redownload it because I had not used it in a few years and figured why not. After seeing that I had to pay to even get to any stories I deleted the app again. I did go and read some other reviews and am glad I did not opt to pay because I suppose there is a huge increase of AI stories and I do not superhero use of AI. I just wanted my cute free story app back but I guess companies just like being greedy with money than actually keeping their apps the same when all users initially enjoyed them.

Forced subscription

I haven’t been able to use the app for a while and after updating, the only option is to sign up for a $9.99 weekly subscription?!! I won’t be re installing this app.

Worst update, want my stories back

Don’t know what AI trash this is, but I miss the old version of this app when it was real stories which now I can’t access and are all gone. 1) the app won’t open on my phone(it stays stuck on the blinking owl eyes), 2) when I try to access on my iPad I can’t create a login. It forces me to use my Apple ID and to only sign up for the $9.99/week subscription, so I can no longer access my already purchased stories. Again, all gone. And no idea if those stories are anywhere else. The worst.

Miss the old app features

When I was like 12 this app was free and then all of a sudden I want to download it and now you’re gonna tell me, I have to pay to look at words on stories that are sometimes not finished please bring back the free feature

Money hungry

Nowadays especially in this economy I don’t need to add another subscription to my paycheck. You can’t even login to see the apps stories, there are no ads or free stories you might as well just be paying for the app in the AppStore because you can’t listen without paying first.

Can’t load

It will not load at all can’t read anything

Not working

I have this app for a while now; however for the past 2 or 3 was is not working…. Every time I clicked on it, the app eyes pop but does IT; never goes to the stories or anything… any ideas about what it’s going on??

No longer free

After spending hours reading on this app, I can no longer finish what I started because subscriptions are mandatory. I’ll be deleting it.

No longer works

All of a sudden I’m unable to login. One device will not even let it upload. The other stalls on forcing me to sign up for a trial. I’ve purchased several books on this app yet cannot access anything now. Fix it! Otherwise it’s turned into a bad scam.

Not working

Hooked stopped working weeks ago, maybe months. Every time I try, it doesn’t open. I used to like the app. It’s too bad.

No longer free

Changed without warning

I had points saved up to read stories, opened the app today and it’s changed to subscription. I’m so angry and annoyed

Where’s my points

I’ve earned 5000 points , and now suddenly I have to pay Ā£9.99 to access the books

Subscribe or bust

I can’t access now because I need to have subscription. When it used to be free with daily logins. No thanks.

Sucks

I use to unlock chapters by checking in and watching ads. I finally was able to unlock a book I wanted to read and now you can’t even get on the app unless you pay a subscription. They’re ridiculous and I will deleting the app and continue to use the Dreame App that’s a really good one.

Octavia

Great stories but looks like I won’t be reading anymore $9.99 a week NO THANKS

Rip off

I accumulated over 4k free coins and today I go onto the app only to try and force a subscription!!

Disappointed

I’ve had the app for awhile and I logged in today and it became a paid subscription reading app only. I really enjoyed before but deleted today
