*2026-08-14, version 5.6.3*

新版流畅多了

### 1/5 — Not good

*2026-07-16, version 5.6.0*

Force the users to stay on the ad page with no exit, this app is scamming the ad system.

### 1/5 — Keep pushing Spam

*2026-01-13, version 5.5.7*

Keeps pop spam ad and trap user by cheating operations.

### 1/5 — 可怕的广告

*2025-12-12*

理解广告的意义和必要性。可是每看一两条新闻就来一个裹脚布长的全屏广告，必须看完才能关上。 体验太差。

### 1/5 — Half of the content shown

*2025-10-22, version 5.5.5*

This is terrible.
I like this app fonts over 掌上文学城。但是现在这个app无法使用。所有的内容都只能显示前一部分。这个问题已经很久了。这个问题很难解决吗？

### 1/5 — 用文学城APP，手机会发热

*2025-06-18, version 5.5.4*

每次在回复读者的评论的时候，发第一条没有关系。如果再发第二条消息，就会非常缓慢。而且手机开始发烫。很可怕。

### 1/5 — Many articles can be read only half

*2025-06-05*

非常差的阅读体验，不能改改吗？

### 1/5 — 很难关掉的广告很烦人

*2025-05-17, version 5.5.4*

应用本身还行。但不时跳出来的全屏广告很烦人，因为需要放很久菜出来换掉的按键，或者根本没有办法关掉。

### 1/5 — Only display half of content

*2025-04-13, version 5.5.4*

Only display half of content
