Chapters are missing whole pages and story beats. Far too expensive for the amount of coins you spend per chapter vs. the length of the chapter. The chapter price also increases as you progress through the story. Dodgy ### 1/5 — Stolen content *2024-09-21, version 1.0.10* Stolen content from Wattpad. Charging you per chapter to read books that are 100% free in another app. ### 3/5 — Love it *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* But it’s expennie ### 3/5 — Shattered *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* Loving the story but hate waiting to get the coins ### 5/5 — Awesome stories *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* Great selection of stories.

Purchase content for them to log you out and delete the content. Absolute scam. ### 1/5 — Not worth the cost *2025-10-26, version 1.0.10* Being forced to pay outrageous prices to read books is ridiculous. For the prices they want I can complete ebook series by authors I already read. ### 1/5 — STOLEN WORKS *2025-05-12, version 1.0.10* They illegally steal copyrighted works from authors and refuse to remove them. I’ve messaged them multiple times and they still REFUSE to take my work down. Do yourselves a favor and google any title or book you find on here, it’ll be 1000x cheaper and you will support the REAL authors not these thieves. Shame on them AND apple for allowing their app to be a thing. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste tour time *2025-03-15, version 1.0.10* It takes so long to earn enough points to read a chapter that it is a joke. The daily bonuses start of at 10 whereas an average chapter is around 80 and some as high as 140 ### 1/5 — Sells stolen content *2024-12-04, version 1.0.10* Please don't waste your money on this app. Many of the books included on here are stolen from authors without their permission. ### 1/5 — Stolen work *2024-11-30, version 1.0.10* This site is stealing from reputable authors without their knowledge or consent. Do not support this app! ### 1/5 — Sells stolen copyright work *2024-11-25, version 1.0.10* This app steals work that is copyright protected from authors on Kindle, Wattpad, Inkit, and other apps. They charge outrageous prices to read the books that they do not have permission to sell or resell. By the time the authors find out the apps and sister apps that they own have made thousands off of protected work that doesn’t belong to them. Stop supporting and buying from this app! Google that name of the book or the characters before spending with this app. Apple remove this app! ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2024-10-22* Overpaid chapters with incomplete stories ### 1/5 — After effects *2024-09-24, version 1.0.10* Need to be taken down selling stolen free books ### 1/5 — PROOF READ! *2024-09-24, version 1.0.10* I read one story, some of the sentences I could not understand. There were misspelled words, words that shouldn’t be in there and words the made no sense whatsoever! I skipped a few chapters, then went to end, I guess you could say I read what I thought could be in it. Had to delete this app. Not spending any more money when it makes no sense!😏 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good app *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* They have a lot of amazing books. ### 5/5 — Pocketbook *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* Has amazing stories that we call can relate to in our lives ### 5/5 — Just Started *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* I just started using this app for reading books, so far not bad. ### 5/5 — Very good *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* Very good ### 5/5 — A great range of stories for all tastes *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* A great range of stories for all tastes for those who love to read. ### 5/5 — Amari *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* Good story so far…I wish there was a flat rate to read a book. ### 5/5 — Great Book App *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* This App has the books I like to read! ### 5/5 — MC *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* Love the books ### 5/5 — Great reading *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* Keep up the great work ### 5/5 — Good read *2024-08-29, version 1.0.10* Easy to use app with lots to choose from.
