DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!

WARNING: Stay away from ReadShort!

This app feels like a complete scam! They make it incredibly easy to charge your credit card but almost impossible to cancel your subscription. There is no clear or accessible way to stop recurring payments, and the entire cancellation process is ridiculously frustrating.

It honestly feels like they are more interested in taking your money than providing a legitimate service.

I strongly recommend that you DO NOT download this app or give them your credit card information!

Customers should not have to jump through hoops just to stop being charged for something they no longer want.

Save yourself the headache and your money. STAY AWAY!

Too expensive Don’t waste your time!

This app is one of the most expensive apps I’ve been on for stories. It pushes you to sign in for bonuses yet there are none and 160 coins per 1 minute chapter is outrageous! Other apps offer far more for less. With bonuses and their chapters are 50 coins. Will be uninstalling it!

Unable to cancel

Rating low as it is still charging me despite having no way to unsubscribe. I am being charged weekly and cannot afford food now because of this. I only bought the trial, I never intended to keep the sub, I cancelled and now I cannot cancel and it’s still charging me

probably the most expensive short drama app

There isn’t any option to watch add or read articles to get coins. You have to pay subscription to watch the whole story or just watch 5 episodes by watching 10 adds a day.

Read short

I like it reading and watching the videos

Scammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

So you mean I have to watch TWO commercials just to get one free coin, and there aren’t even any free coins available? 🙄 You literally have to PAY for coins. At this point, just say you want our money and stop pretending anything is free! The attitude is crazy because why am I watching ads AND still expected to pay? Be so for real. 💀😂

Subscriptions Only

No way to earn points and watch. Sign up or don't watch and if you look at the reviews, you'll realize signing up is a nightmare. Avoid this one.

Great stories

Loving the stories so far!

Trap

They trap you into the subscription. There is no where to cancel it and the “directions” they give you to cancel aren’t even real and cannot be done. All the videos are the same as every other app too. No new one nothing original to watch.

Perfect Short Stories

I only watched the video stories but so far they perfect in my view. 20-30 episodes is a perfect time around 1 hour. The best is that the stories are complete. Many other short dramas apps, offer 25 episodes but the story just hangs in the middle with no end. I get super frustrated to waste time with that. Here I found full stories that as promised are short.

Scam

I have emailed twice and they do not cancel subscription. Oh they give you the line to go to apple subscriptions but that is lie. There is no place in the app to cancel. SCAM

Totally addicted to these short dramas!

I spend hours binge-watching every single day! This app is fantastic. The shows are really well-made with fun plot twists, there’s a huge variety of dramas to pick from, and the pricing is totally reasonable. I can’t stop watching, and I always look forward to the next episode. Definitely worth trying!
