“Daily Limit”? Seriously?

Wanted to enjoy this, the concept is really cool, but immediately realized that this app’s free version has a daily time limit to how much you’re allowed to listen before you pay for Pro, which I assume gives you “unlimited listening time” or whatever. The fact that it corners you to pay with that limit is ridiculous, I read for much longer than the time it gives you and the idea of having my music just cut off because of some paywall is really annoying. Going back to YouTube for my music.

Response from developer

Hi! Just for some context, Moodreads is an indie app I’ve been building and maintaining myself for years, alongside being a dad of two. There’s no big company behind it, and streaming music has real monthly costs that I personally cover. The free version gives a reasonable amount of listening time for people who read occasionally, and I cover that cost myself. For people who want to listen for longer, Pro helps keep the app running and allows me to continue developing it. I’m sorry you see it this way. It makes me sad.

Makes me want to read more

I mainly listen to audiobooks but this is such a nice concept. Read a book and play this in the background to set the soundtrack for the book. The music is great and really does make the read more fun!

Response from developer

Thank you so much! I’ll soon implement optional random scare jumps sounds for horror books. Keep reading!

Unique idea!

It’s difficult to find a really unique app these days. It seems like everyone is just redoing the same thing. More to-do apps, more note apps, etc. This one gives you a non-obtrusive soundtrack to listen to based upon the book you are reading, and so far it has done well! I’m in the middle of a Spenser novel (classic detective genre) and it provided me a suitably dark playlist. Just for kicks, I tried it with a Dogman graphic novel, and the soundtrack is suitably bright and adventurous without being distracting. Give it a try if you’d like some background music with your books!

Cinematic reading

I love how this app turns my reading time into an adventurous cinematic experience! You can feel fully immersed with customized soundtracks to your book, or just feel super cozy with thunderstorm sound effects. Highly recommend :)

Response from developer

Love this!

Great idea and well done!
