Read full description

Rivly is where romance readers come for the stories they can't put down. Mafia bosses with a secret heir. Alphas who reject their fated mate and regret it. Billionaires who buy everything except the one woman who says no. Every book on Rivly is built the way you actually read: short chapters, fast escalation, and a cliffhanger you feel in your chest. WHAT YOU GET • Start every book free. The opening chapters of every story are open — no trial, no card, no countdown. If a book doesn't hook you, close it and open another. • New chapters every week. Our library grows constantly, and your library page tells you the moment a story you follow continues. • Pick up exactly where you stopped. Your progress syncs to your account, so the phone, the tablet and the laptop all open on the same paragraph. • Read offline. Download chapters before a flight or a commute and keep reading with no signal at all. • A reader built for long nights. Dark mode, adjustable text size, and a layout that stays out of the way of the story. THE GENRES OUR READERS BINGE Dark Romance · Mafia Romance · Werewolf & Fated Mates · Billionaire Romance · Enemies to Lovers · Secret Baby · Forbidden Love · Second Chance · Sapphic Romance HOW READING WORKS Every book opens free. To continue past the free chapters you unlock them with coins, which you can earn by reading daily or buy in a bundle — no subscription, nothing renews behind your back, and what you unlock stays yours. Rivly is made by a small team that reads what it publishes. Every book is finished before it goes live, so a story you start is a story you can finish. Download Rivly and find the book you'll stay up too late for.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Poth at none against Rivly's 8. Poth also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). Rivly's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
