I got 16% into a book with $70??? Like it’s going to cost $500 to finish! Avoid purchasing ### 2/5 — Shame so expensive *2026-08-17, version 2.1.1* Love reading these but expensive to read. ### 1/5 — Too expensive. *2026-08-15, version 2.1.1* I buy books regularly. I don’t mind paying $20 or $30 dollars for a book. And would gladly pay that to read the story I have started. But the story I have started is over 600 mini chapters and they want 35 tokens per chapter. This means it would cost me like $150 tokens per purchase enough tokens to finish this book. So I will finish this story reading a chapter for free every other day. And then I will delete the app. ### 2/5 — Don't bother *2026-08-13, version 2.1.1* While some of the stories are amazing, the app itself is not worth it. Do not waste your money on the "subscription " it does not unlock all stories as it suggests. Only 'short' stories ### 1/5 — No finish *2026-08-13, version 2.1.0* Just goes on and on not making progress ### 1/5 — Not worth the time *2026-08-11, version 2.1.0* I knew there was a reason that I had deleted this app! The reward you can earn are one or two cents! OTHER of the many apps have used you get $.20-$.30 for every ad ! Deleting this app again ! My time is more valuable and reviews saying that it’s good or lying ### 4/5 — Billionaire’s Match *2026-08-09, version 2.0.9* For the love of God, you Chinese writers have to & need to quit writing in these stories that ‘the husband ruffled his wife’s hair’!! These stories start out great & then you have to write one of the most stupid idiotic line there is…AND HE RUFFLES HER HAIR. No husband in the USA ruffles their wife’s hair. No one. The 2nd most idiotic line is when they bow to their bosses. WE DON’T BOW TO ANYONE let alone our bosses or our families. PLEASE leave those two lines out of your stories!!! Please!!! ### 1/5 — Cheated *2026-08-08, version 2.0.9* I was going to write a review but d’you know what, I just can’t be bothered. The app won’t let me turn pages forward, it just goes backwards and when eventually it does let me go forward, it has stolen all my tokens. I’m so fed up with all the promises that disappear into the Ethernet, I’m just going to cut my losses and delete the app. All these book apps are the same; the promise the world but deliver nothing. ### 1/5 — Can’t use purchased coins!! *2026-08-06, version 2.0.8* Purchased top up coins but still can’t purchase chapters. Why offer top up if you can’t spend them to purchase chapters and still require membership???!!! I spend money and still can’t finish the story. ### 3/5 — Why *2026-08-04, version 2.0.8* Why is an ad keeping me from my story ### 1/5 — NOT FREE *2026-08-03, version 2.0.8* Should have read reviews ### 1/5 — Gag *2026-08-03, version 2.0.8* This garbage app charges real money for AI written stories… the stories aren’t even that good?? ### 3/5 — So expensive *2026-08-02, version 2.0.8* Want to love it, books are decent and somewhat well written compared to other sites but it’s so expensive. You’re reading a story and it’s not clean if it’s a short or long story and then they have two memberships for both. Then the one for regular novels is just some coins that don’t really pay a “week” even tho their charging a weekly amount. Literally spending over $100 on a one book. I might as well buy regular books or ebooks that were actually published and well written. ### 1/5 — Do not waste a cent *2026-08-02* Writing was terrible. Made the child have an adult voice. Quick script to cruise through different crisis. Just another terrible book app. ### 1/5 — Expensive for what you get *2026-08-01, version 2.0.8* Started reading book as an advert thought I’d download the app paid £9.99 thought I’d get at least the one book I was reading but no got to chapter 38 and now have to pay if I want to read further. There’s some other books- or the beginning of them- but I want to finish the book I started… wasted a tenner ### 1/5 — Pricing *2026-07-29, version 2.0.7* Books are good but you lie. I’m in half a mind to take legal action because why misrepresent your app?? Please change your marketing because what you are doing is illegal. ### 1/5 — All chapters are NOT free *2026-07-28, version 2.0.7* You have to unlock chapters with coins and buying them or going through affiliates, etc. really frustrating when You advertise all chapters are free when they are absolutely not. ### 1/5 — Why dude *2026-07-27, version 2.0.7* Why do we need money to read books it doesnt make sense I’m better off getting books ### 1/5 — Stupid expensive *2026-07-27, version 2.0.7* I expect if I pay $15 bucks I will be able to read a whole book. If you want to read a full book you will have to drop $50+ dollars to read or only a chapter a day waiting for bonus coins. So disappointed as I started a pretty good read and after 4 days and $15 bucks it’s only at 6% read. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Awful app *2026-09-01* Stupid authors get to add one or more chapters a day leading you on. Very frustrating to say the least. Very expensive to read too. Better off using Audible or Kindle or something like that so you don’t waste your money ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-08-23* You know what I hate the most. The book gets juicy then bam slap you in the face and there is no other chapter and you have to friggen wait for the writer to add more chapters. Grrrrr! Why are authors allied to post a few chapters and making readers wait for more to be added. So stupid ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-22* I appreciate that it’s free, however, to have to watch a 3 minute ad after each chapter (that is 4-5 pages) is extremely annoying and completely ruins the flow of the story. Not worth the time ### 1/5 — Trop cher *2026-08-19* Extrêmement cher aucun moyen de lire gratuit ou avec pub ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2026-08-18, version 2.1.1* This is one as a sleazier apps that I’ve seen. They promise you when the commercial that this book is free when you get in there, they start charging you right away and here’s the kicker for every chapter. You open the price gets higher. The first chapter was 14 coins, and it kept multiplying after every chapter. There’s no way to earn free coins. And they totally lied about the free novel. Not even worth the download deleting the app right now ### 1/5 — Music *2026-08-18, version 2.1.1* Not sure why you think we want to hear music. I won’t be reading anymore on your site for that reason. ### 1/5 — Pay for subscription but can’t read the books , rip off!!! *2026-08-18, version 2.1.1* Maybe you should be up front and honest about what titles are available under subscription. You can’t access all the books and therefore your subscription service is a scam and waste of money. I’m so sick of these apps taking money!! Why do I want to watch 27 ads to read one badly worded chapter. Unsubscribe and delete !!! ### 1/5 — STAY AWAY!!! GREEDY APP! *2026-08-17, version 2.1.1* I purchased a week subscription only to find out that the weekly subscription does not include the book i want to read. Greedy App! I hope you get shut down! ### 1/5 — False advertisement *2026-08-16, version 2.1.1* Clearly states free, but you need to pay to read and this is all ai slop ### 1/5 — Why bother *2026-08-15, version 2.1.1* Liked a story but disappointed very quickly on the purchasing options ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — . *2026-08-12, version 2.1.0* Awesome website works great super easy to setup and cancel subscriptions has tons of good short stories overall 10/10 website ### 5/5 — Fun Novels *2026-07-26, version 2.0.7* Except for the over-serialization, I am thoroughly enjoying The Almighty Indominance. May take forever for the novel to finish, but I have the time. ### 5/5 — Frustrating *2026-07-01* Thus app is expensive and you get a chapter to a book here and there as the author is writing it as you are reading. So frustrating. And the spelling errors, don’t get me started grrr! ### 5/5 — It’s one of the better reading app’s *2026-06-26* I really do like this app I can get a chapter daily after collecting log in rewards and for watching ads some days I get 2 chapters from coins adding up in my person opinion chapters are on the shorter side but are well written with minimal spelling errors I do recommend this app if your not in a rush to get through the book for me unfortunately I can not afford to spend money to read books so I have to take the slow way to get through the books ### 5/5 — Thank you *2026-06-24, version 2.0.5* You said I could read the whole thing free 😡 NOTHING IS FREE ### 5/5 — The Alpha’s Contract *2026-06-01* The book itself is excellent. Well written and addictive. Your advertisement said THREE DAYS FREE READING. I didn’t even make an hour! It is wrong to mis represent your intent. Of course, I will not continue to read this book because you have failed to adhere to your enticement. I do not pay real cash to read. I will watch advertisements to open Chapters but that is as far as it goes. I feel sorry for the authors of your books as, clearly, they are paid from the subscriptions you receive. Or maybe not 🤔 Maybe you con them as well! If this is the case, I truly hope they find an alternative platform where their efforts are appreciated and paid for. ### 5/5 — Wow *2026-05-28, version 2.0.4* So far so good ### 5/5 — The King *2026-05-22, version 2.0.4* Good story, hate an add every chapter. Like the storyline ### 5/5 — Master Wade is an Exceptional Story *2026-05-20, version 2.0.3* A well written and intriguing novel enjoying this immensely ### 5/5 — King of war returns *2026-05-19, version 2.0.3* So far a good read. I was enjoying reading for watching ads It said I could the whole book that way then the book disappeared and had to read a chapter every other day as I don’t have funds to pay for reading --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
