I was teased a bit with the first few chapters of an interesting romance, then was prompted to install this app to continue to read. But you have to pay to continue, of course. I gave them $5 (which buys a lot of WEBTOON chapters) and got 350 “coins.” Then I had to pay 15 coins per chapter. I got to chapter 34, which still felt like beginning chapters, ran out of coins, and closed the app for good. The story was fun but the chapters were short and not edited very well, if at all. I can spend my money better on Kindle Unlimited. And since this is a review of the app, let me say that the features are lacking- very little you can adjust for your reading comfort, and while you can search for a title if you know it, you can’t browse a genre or just look at random titles. There is only Their Recommendations and an Easy To Subscribe $10 monthly subscription that is easy to find. The WebNovel app is better, as far as apps go. (Also a waste of money) There are no free stories in this app. Pay per chapter or pay with a monthly subscription but you must pay to read anything here. I’m not above paying a bit for a good read, as I spent $5 just to check this story out, but I’m not going to spend $100 for a long unedited web novel when I’m buying award-winning books on Amazon for $20 or less, often much less. So, don’t waste your time or money on this app. Unless you’re rich. Then you absolutely have the right to waste your money wherever you want to. ### 1/5 — Can’t read *2023-06-05* Loaded a book and I can’t read it. Half of one page is overlaps on the next and it seems like the page is maybe half missing ### 1/5 — No way to Log in *2022-05-07, version 1.9.3* On the website, you can log in using Facebook, Twitter, Google, or Apple, but if you use the different methods, it will create a new account for you each time! But for the app, it ONLY has log in options via Facebook, Google, and Apple! Since I opted to log-in using Twitter on their website and that’s the account I used to publish a novel, I have no way of logging into the app at all to access my novel. You also can’s search books up by genre. Back in 2021, their site said they would be going through maintenance, and I thought this would be one of the things they would update. But now it’s 2022 and you still can’t search up genres. You can only search up titles which is inconvenient, because you would have no idea what title to look up if you’re trying to discover a new book. ### 1/5 — Frustrating App *2022-04-17, version 1.9.3* When I click the icon to open the app it crashes. Normally, it happens at least 4 times before the app will open. Once it opens and I click on a book, it says loading but nothing happens. It spins but never loads the book. Books aren’t loading and app crashes a lot. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2022-01-06, version 1.7.0* Payed 5$ and get 24 chapters! So I’m looking at 20$ for 100 chapters! Not sure how many chapters this book has but I’m not paying anything else until I know what is last chapter. There should b a cap on total cost per title! ### 5/5 — Good app *2021-10-24, version 1.5.3* I wish they would include how often the novel updates or when the novel is expected to update but overall this app is pretty good. ### 1/5 — don't download this capper *2021-10-09, version 1.5.3* Was suckered into this by an ad in Google saying I can read a full story for free ... You can't. This is just like all the other pay to read apps. I've only found one that lets you read a story for free, as long as you watch a short ad between each chapter....wish this one was like that. ### 1/5 — I have several reading apps and this is by far the worst one. *2021-10-09, version 1.5.3* Downloaded this app cuz I got sucked into a story on a Facebook ad. I was really enjoying the story but could only read a couple chapters before you need coins to unlock more. You don't even get enough daily coins to unlock one chapter. And your coins disappear. I had 15 coins this morning and when I opened the app later in the day all of my coins were gone. I'm not paying $20+ for a story when I can find similar ones free elsewhere ### 1/5 — Search not working *2021-09-05, version 1.5.1* Wheee is search button ### 5/5 — Help *2021-07-11, version 1.4.3* I keep trying to access the pro subscription but it keeps taking me somewhere else… do you guys not offer the pro subscription anymore?? ## Frequently asked questions about Sofanovel ### What kind of content does Sofanovel offer?
