### 1/5 — Loading problems

*2026-05-31, version 1.9*

Bought the no adds version and have had multiple different manga that I started where you get a few chapters in and it will no longer load pages it’s highly frustrating and I haven’t found a way to fix it

### 4/5 — it’s alright

*2026-05-23, version 1.9*

the app would be better if it was faster and had better ui, but overall it is one the best apps you’d be able to find of the app store

### 2/5 — Fix it

*2026-05-21, version 1.9*

Has very good stuff to read but the app goes down every other day.

### 1/5 — I paid for the subscription…

*2026-05-20, version 1.9*

Ever since I bought subscription this app started bugging out so much. Everytime I tried to load up a new manga/manwha it would never load. This is either a scam or some type of bug that needs to IMMEDIATELY fixed otherwise I might have to report this.

Edit: it seems like deleting the cache helps load the stuff faster. It doesn’t delete all of your book marks or anything so it seems like that was intentional. I wish they had js told us this before having people think they got scammed or something. Also I would recommend deleting the cache when it nearly gets around 35 or so (depends on the type of phone)

### 4/5 — Hello your app isn’t working currently just so you know

*2026-05-16, version 1.9*

Very good app but us not working right now

### 1/5 — Fix your app!!!!!!!!

*2026-05-15, version 1.9*

All the manga alway getting deleted and having to relook up every single manga I read and try to guess what chapter I am I am tired or have to do this all the time I even payed for premium

### 1/5 — RUIN ANIME FOR YOURSELF USING THIS

*2026-05-12, version 1.9*

Every 10th slide won’t load I try all my different WiFi’s and data. So frustrating missing ever 10th page

### 2/5 — Not forever subscription

*2026-04-19, version 1.9*

I purchased the forever subscription for $8.51 “including tax” 2 years ago and now it says I never had it even though I’m looking at the purchase right now

### 3/5 — How to access my downloads?

*2026-04-16, version 1.9*

I’m having trouble finding my downloads

### 2/5 — Would be good but there’s always a bug

*2026-03-14, version 1.9*

Too many bugs, the same bugs keep reoccurring. Would be 5 stars without the consecutive bugs.
