Ratings and Reviews
Missing text on every page
There is text missing on every page. I have tried changing the font size and some extra text appears but it is still not all of it. I am not sure if this is an iPhone 6+ issue only.
I will have to use the website instead until this gets fixed.
Ignore those other ratings, ace app.
I'm also baffled by those low ratings, as this is a fantastic free app. I have spent the last 10 minutes browsing the very interesting (and free) collections available and now have a big collection of contemporary short stories. Cheers. The app is well designed and user-friendly and all I can say is - get it!
The app is fine!
I don't actually leave reviews in general but had to comment - don't be put off by the low rating, the app is absolutely fine! If the low raters are judging on the quality of the stories then they're missing the point! It's a great app for discovering new short fiction from new and aspiring writers.
