I love this app, and use every opportunity for free reading to do so, as I refuse to pay when a lot of these books are officially available to buy, much cheaper than any monthly prescription, however, I have found by watching ads, or clicking on ads, all my options to gain free reading time, gets messed up, like it will say I used up all my times to watch an ad, which is supposed to be 30 points for every ad, with a limit of 5 ads, but it will take all my uses (saying I watched 5 ads) but not give any of the reward points for everything I watched or clicked. Proving my point is a screenshot I have, one that is supposed to be 30 points forfor clicking on the link and clicking 3 ads and waiting 30 seconds. Said I used all 5 chances, so I should have 150 points from all 5, but only have 50. This is not the only, the first, second, third, or tenth time this app has done this to me. Me doing the thing for free reading and not getting my points even though it’s saying I used up all my video watches or ad clicks. I’m not getting the points to use towards my free reading time. At this point, I feel like I’m owed a free subscription with how many times it’s screwed me out of points and my free reading time, it’s been doing this to me for 3 months consecutively and I’m about to delete the app and jus buy the books off another site because of this
I have earned over one thousand points but can’t use them. The app allows you to use 300 points a day (3x10mins) to read. When the ten minutes is over it stops you abruptly and when you use your next ten ten minutes, you spend some time to search where you left off. The app forces you to sign up for their membership. I’ll buy points but won’t sign up and give up more personal information than I already have.
I found an ad for the app on Instagram and was interested so I downloaded it. The first story I read relatively no issues. But there was noticeably poor grammar and spelling. I continued to try reading other stories but quickly found most stories on the app have atrocious grammar and terrible spelling, making it extremely difficult and near impossible to follow and understand what’s being read let alone enjoy it. One book even had most of its chapters locked (mind you this one actually had few grammar and spelling issues so it was more enjoyable). But after waiting 24 hours for it then to unlock, they didn’t. I then messaged the people who deal with the app twice about this issue and it’s been almost a week with no reply. It’s getting really frustrating and not worth all the issues.
