Radish Fiction

I had a subscription to this app that I cancelled because even if you pay for coins every month, they expire. I figured if they’re going to go away anyway, I might as well just go back to the free version. I think this is really a ripoff! If I purchased the coins, they’re mine! You don’t get to penalize me because you think I don’t use them fast enough. Sometimes life happens and you go through a very busy time in life when you don’t get to read as much. I finally had some time and went back to this app thinking how I had been paying every month, so therefore I should have a stockpile of coins I PAID for to binge read for awhile. I had zero coins! Turns out even the ones you buy go away! In the free version, you can earn coins by watching adds, but I am now on the second day of not being able to watch ads because a notice comes up telling me there are no ads available to watch. There’s the lucky draw, but I have never won more than 4 coins with that. Then waiting to read a free chapter is fine, but the chapters are so short, it’s like you only get two minutes of reading in. Also with the waiting is that different books have different wait times. Waiting 24 hrs to read for two minutes is just dumb! You can shorten wait time to an hour or even ten minutes by watching an ad…but then we’re back to the problem that no ads are available, so you still can’t read. I don’t understand creating a reading app that makes it so hard for people to read.

I like the fact we can earn extra coins. But if we earn them they should not expire. My phone died and for several days I’ve had no phone so I lost anything I had. U must think we’re stupid to offer 35 coins for reading a book but we have to pay more than that many coins to read the book. Several times I’ve not received coins I’ve. At least little by little we can read a whole book without having to buy coins. There have been several books I would of read after reading the 3 chapters to get 3 coins but the rest of the the book took coins anywhere from 25-+ chapters. Which would take days or weeks to finish the book only earning 6-9 coins a day. Plus the books ur reading ain’t always up to the point of being able to use the coins. Hence we need to be able to store earned coins till we need them. Still better than the apps where u HAVE to buy chapters to finish a book. I’m not gonna do that when I can go to my library app and read for free and as fast as I want to read.

I think that this app should not charge people such large fees to read books that would cost a fraction of the cost in a real book store. With how short most of the chapters are, it is ridiculous to have to wait 24 hours to have to read another equally short chapter. I enjoy reading these stories but it is starting to get annoying that i can’t simply read the book the entire way through. Personally I have used and still sometimes use a different reading app which I sometimes enjoy more because only a few of the stories cost coins and also the other app gives you the ability to leave comments which I enjoy reading because it allows you to know what other readers think. For example while reading a romance where the main character has two people chasing after them it is interesting seeing who people think is right. Even with the ability to receive 3 free coins each day which is enough to read one short chapter of only one of the books I am reading. That leads me to the fact that 3 is an odd number and i don’t understand why it can’t be 2 coins per chapter especially when the packs you buy are not even multiples of three. It is obvious the owners are more interested in putting extra cash in their pocket then giving the customer the experience the want and deserve. The only reason it isn’t a one star review is because there still seems to be good stories on the app.
