### 5/5 — Please continue what you're doing!

*2026-08-19, version 5.10.1*

I think another recent comment I read is mistaken on which app they intended to review, as they were complaining about the use of AI over real humans. I have yet to see a single AI release on the Shorts app, which is why I'm leaving this 5-star review! In the vertical universe, it's getting harder and harder to find apps that aren't overrun with AI slop. I'm so thankful that you guys have stayed true to the real human creatives involved in these productions, and I hope that never changes! I've been canceling a lot of my annual VIP subscriptions because so many apps have begun churning out nothing but AI garbage. Shorts is one of the few I'll gladly continue supporting so long as you keep giving me real human content! Please don't ever cave to the pressure in the vertical world to go the lazy, AI route!

### 3/5 — Ai Writers

*2026-08-17, version 5.10.1*

Can the writing be consistent, remembering names, spelling errors

### 5/5 — Super

*2026-08-17*

Ok

### 1/5 — Real Actors over AI

*2026-08-16, version 5.10.1*

The trend to crank out AI generated stories instead of employing live actors makes me want to delete your app and not pay for any more content. Please go back to using real actors and producers!

### 3/5 — Log in

*2026-08-11, version 5.10.1*

I have an account for my android but it’s not letting me log in on my new iPhone for some reason and it’s not sending a redemption link why

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-31, version 5.10.1*

Love the shows

### 4/5 — Three out of 10

*2026-07-30, version 5.10.1*

I just don’t like how you make us pay for tickets and stuff just to watch episodes that’s why you got a three out of 10

### 1/5 — No customer service

*2026-07-26, version 5.10.0*

The Facebook login stopped working and after contacting customer service almost a week ago, I’ve gotten no reply.

### 4/5 — Alle

*2026-07-26*

Übersetzung ins deutsche ist wünschenswert, dann macht das Anschauen noch mehr Spaß, da man sich nicht zusätzlich auf den geschriebenen Text konzentrieren muss.

### 3/5 — Too expensive

*2026-07-24, version 5.10.0*

Great Stories, but these type apps are too expensive.  My hubby would be extremely unhappy with me if he saw $80.00 coming out of our account for an app like this! I love pocket FM because each day when I check in I get free episodes, and I get the option of watching ads if I want to watch more episodes. I was getting that option with this app but now I am not so I am most likely to delete this app.
