The animations are so smooth especially tiger by the tail. I’ve finished two stories now and there were absolutely no ads or any need to sign up to any paid for memberships . You can just watch and enjoy ☺️ ### 2/5 — Needs more content *2024-09-23* I've been a member ever since this started. It has originality, promise, potential...yet I am always left slightly disappointed with the lack of regularly new content. At this point I wish they would just charge for the app with the commitment of releasing fresh content every week. Also, they loose a star for content that is only available in their new watch mode. Do better and make me a fan again!!! ### 5/5 — Very fun app, and a great way to find upcoming creators *2024-08-23* TL;DR: great and promising app, excellent algorithm and I love that we can support the creators of these animations. I never write reviews, but I had to for this app. I download random apps I see and know nothing about time to time and usually just end up disappointed and uninstall it. I love this app a lot. It’s only the beginning of their journey so I’m confident it’ll only get better from here. The algorithm does a great job of catering the stories to my liking. I love that I get to experience the stories and animations of wonderful creators I may have never gotten the chance to see without this app. I do wish we had the ability to create folders or some sort of way to organize our bookmarks. That’s basically my only qualm for now. I really like the swipe system instead of having a whole gallery, otherwise I’d be scrolling and cherry picking without giving some of them a chance. Finally, I was hoping there was a way to see more work of a specific creator. Overall, very solid app! ### 5/5 — This has potential *2024-07-13* This is very good and has a lot of potential if you’re reading this devolopers don’t become money hungry and this app will blow up and become popular and try to make the storys longer like maybe 30 minutes to 25 minutes and if you include some anime type books or manhwa this could be close to 1# maybe even 1# ### 2/5 — Honestly kinda disappointing *2024-06-23* I found this app through youtube shorts it was a really good ad. One of those doesn’t feel like an ad type things. Tried it out and…well…This app is basically if youtube shorts had a section for story telling. You cant really get attached with the characters its just boom and gone. The stories are so incredibly short and un-interesting. I’ve seen kids books that were longer and had more personality. So far most of my experience is just they read like someone just writing down their own personal issues and calling it a character and then have said character live out the author’s personal fantasy. Im not saying there arent some gems in there but the way its designed makes it hard for good stories to work. Character development, tension, mystery are all practically non existent in these 2 minute stories. There isnt time for it. And even if you get attached the story is already over with an ending thats meh at best. Im surprised there isnt more negative reviews but in all reality the good reviews could just be bots. ### 1/5 — ChatGPT Stories *2024-06-21* Each one of the stories in this black substance and has a format similar to what you would get out of a single prompt in ChatGPT. I suspect that they have a animation studio, animates, some illustrations to the stories provided by the text generation AI. The story I got the app for it was about a boy with a lackluster dragon, but the story didn’t end with anything substantial. It was just simply this is my dragon I’m happy and then it ends with nothing of significance happening. The reason I deleted the app is it started asking me for personal information like photos and microphone. That can only mean they’re trying to gather as much data as possible to create generational AI. The stories are not worth it for an app though. **Developer response:** All our stories are written and animated by real creators who put in a lot of hard work into both the writing and animation. Additionally, we value your privacy and do not ask for any personal information for Gen AI purposes. ### 5/5 — Very neat! *2024-06-18* It’s a nice blend of having animation with a written story, I just finished “Would you still love me if I was a wrym?” and it was so cute! I like the main page where you swipe to get a preview of the stories ### 5/5 — Loving it as is! Here’s some potential features I think it would be cool to add: *2024-06-02, version 1.1.1* 1. Being able to comment. There’s a lot of cool and unique stories here and I’d love to be able to see how others react or what they’d do in similar circumstances. Or there could be a forum section where people can ask other users and these questions. It would also be cool to be able to ask authors questions about their stories directly! 2.I also think it would be cool, if possible, to have a user uploads section where it can be mostly still images if the user doesn’t want to animate the whole thing. Maybe some premade filters based on different genres? I know these features would probably require additional moderation and work, but I think the app would grow faster and go farther if there was a community people can interact with, and people would stick around longer after viewing a story. Maybe there can be a subscriber option to use these potential features, like $2-10 to deter people who troll? I think when people pay to use an account they’re more careful with what they post so they don’t get banned. Anyways, I would absolutely love these options, but they’re not required for me to enjoy and continue using the app, keep up the good work☺️ ### 5/5 — woah *2024-05-26, version 1.1.0* tbh i’m too lazy to review things bu i had to come back and give 5* bc how tf is this free??!! idk if it’s also because of how annoying other apps are with subscriptions etc that my standards have lowered but wow im surprised there aren’t ads that can be paid to remove, or a payment scheme like Webtoon or other apps. anyway good job making this and it is really well done, also thank you for it being dark theme with no hud overlay when reading!!!! ### 5/5 — It’s FREE! *2024-05-24, version 1.1.0* Okay, downloaded this considering trying the free trial etc. There is no free trial because the app is free. Great animations and stories! Wishing the creators all the best! ## Frequently asked questions about Storiaverse ### What kind of content does this app offer?
