### 3/5 — Ai Writers

*2026-08-17, version 5.10.1*

Can the writing be consistent, remembering names, spelling errors

### 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

### 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

### 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.

### 3/5 — Negative rewards

*2026-07-15*

The stories are ok. You have to watch an ad for each episode. Rewards are a joke. Today I had 25 points. I checked in for 10 points. My total points are now 2. Yes two. It happens all the time so it’s not just an occasional glitch. All the time.  I would recommend going with a different app

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing this — we understand how frustrating it must be to see your points drop so unexpectedly, especially when it keeps happening. Just to clarify: coins are used up as you watch episodes, and reward coins also come with a lifetime limit, which could explain some of the change you're seeing. That said, we want to make sure nothing else is going on here. Could you write to us at support@shorts-drama.com with a bit more detail on when this happens? We'd really like to take a closer look and make things right.

### 3/5 — Legendas

*2026-07-05*

Onde configuro a legenda gente?! Deveria ser uma coisa óbvia! Preciso de suporte…

### 5/5 — Great Reads

*2026-06-29, version 5.8.0*

These are really great short reads for sitting in waiting rooms, flights and passing the time.  Not before bed, tend to lose track of time.

### 2/5 — Canceled

*2026-06-29*

I canceled my subscription with these people and I just got charged again from these people when I say I want my subscription ended I don’t wanna send money to you anymore especially $20 a week if I wanted to go any further than one week I would’ve gone a year and it would’ve cost me 92 maybe $120 you’re

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to share this, we're sorry to hear about the extra charge after cancelling. If this is still an issue, please reach out to us at support@shorts-drama.com, we'll be happy to look into your subscription and go over the options with you.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-06-27, version 5.7.1*

There is no way to cancel and I don’t even know what is enrolled because there’s nothing that comes up under VIP but yes, it says the Apple Pay is linked. You call the number and it’s a message in French

### 1/5 — Fraud

*2026-08-30, version 5.11.0*

Company will keep
Charging subscription fees even when you cancel

### 1/5 — Why No Yearly Option?

*2026-08-29*

First off, I don’t like how we’re prompted to leave a 5 star review the first time we ever open the app. What am I rating exactly? Secondly, why isn’t there a yearly option? I like watching verticals and I have a few subscriptions to them but I pay for them yearly not weekly or monthly. I was looking forward to watching some of their dramas but I guess not anymore

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for taking the time to share this - we really appreciate the feedback about the review prompt, that's genuinely helpful for us to hear. We're also sorry the dramas ended up feeling out of reach because of this we do actually offer a yearly subscription option, so if you didn't come across it, we'd love to help you find it and answer any questions. Just reach out to us at support@shorts-drama.com, and we hope you'll give the app another chance.

### 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!

### 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.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2026-07-14, version 5.9.0*

It said on the add that you don’t need to pay and you can just use adds but you have to app after you watch 5 adds.

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-07-08, version 5.9.0*

Rip off $9.99 got 5 minutes of video!  These APPS are total scams and wicked expensive.  You should be banned from the system!

### 1/5 — Unable To Cancel & I Keep Getting Charged

*2026-07-06, version 5.9.0*

Unable To Cancel & I Keep Getting Charged the $19.99 I like the short dramas & considered paying for a whole year but if I can’t watch even though I am still being charged. I may have to report fraud on my debit card just to get them to stop charging me for content I can’t seem to access even though they keep charging me like it is acceptable when it is not ok.

### 1/5 — Sprache

*2026-07-03*

Es wird mit verschiedenen Sprachen angeboten im AppStore bei dieser App, aber man kann weder Sprache noch Untertitel in einer anderen Sprache einstellen

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! Aktuell ist der Ton tatsächlich nur auf Englisch verfügbar, aber Untertitel gibt es bereits in mehreren Sprachen bei allen neuen Serien, und wir fügen laufend weitere Untertitel bei neuen Serien hinzu. Ihre Meinung ist uns wichtig, und wir werden die Sprachunterstützung für unsere Serien auf jeden Fall weiter ausbauen. Vielen Dank!

### 1/5 — Just a comment

*2026-07-02, version 5.8.0*

I love how they say free and then ask for payment information. To me this isn’t FREE!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Shorts

*2026-06-29, version 5.7.1*

Cheesy not good at all story lack in depth, would not recommend to anyone.

### 5/5 — I don’t even each tv now been watching these

*2026-08-28, version 5.11.0*

I love them

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

*2026-08-19*

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!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're so glad to hear you appreciate our commitment to real human creativity — and we're happy to say we intend to stick with that! Your support means a lot to us, and we'll keep doing our best to bring you genuine, human-made content. Thank you for being with us!
