User reviews

Very disappointed

I’ve been a user on this app for years and it’s genuinely one of my most used apps. I’ve read countless great stories that I’ve followed for years and to see all of it disappear with no other way of seeing them again or getting to keep anything that I’ve spent my money on, and trying to support the creators I love is very upsetting and disappointing. The company should at least make it free to view comics and read stories until they shut down since we can no longer buy ink to continue supporting reading comics and stories. Especially for those of us who still want to at least finish the comics and stories we have in our libraries. I hope something is done about this to at least give a sort of thanks to us customers who have been on this app for years and supported them.

Horrible company

Removing content forever

Love it

I've loved this app for so long!! I will miss it a ton. It has such a good amount of comics and some good ink events.

Pls don’t leave us

This is always my go too app to read stories and this app has always brightened my mood up no matter what happened on in my day so pls don’t leave us we will miss you please come back soon

address this IMMEDIATELY!!!

I know it said that you're no longer accepting sign ups so I could read a manhwa, ad you say you're ending your service next year. That's a bunch of bull for people who want to read the manhwa they want to read. You should at least make it free for all of you're going to pull something like this
