Inkitt: Books, Novels, Stories 12+

The app is optimized but it depends on your hardware

I’ve been using this app on multiple devices and there seems to be a significant performance gap from using an A9(Dual Core) device to an A10X(Hexa Core). The reading experience on this is amazing since it lets you download all of the books in your library but when launching them, even on online mode, you still notice the lag when changing chapters or books. It seems that this application has a better optimization for devices with more cores even though the device is on a generation above the previous. For example, on my A10X device, even on low power mode, it only takes me around 4 seconds from homescreen to the last chapter I’m reading and an instantaneous response when changing chapters. But on my A9 device on full power, it takes me around 40 seconds just to go back to the book and around 10 seconds to load the next chapter. Hopefully you guys would be able to make a lite version of the app or limit some of it’s capabilities when run on older devices. Other than that, all of the stories are great and free. Thanks

Good

I keep on removing books from my library but they re-download when I go back online, it’s a massive hassle. More font style options please, preferably sans-serif, I’m not that fond of reading in serif fonts. Please add a “completed” section of books in discover, that would be a massive help. Searching for tags or sub-genres would be easier for those who wishes to indulge in a specific type of genre.

Everything’s good! Just don’t make me pay for books and limit my offline library, thanks!

An update to my previous review

I really like the new update because now, I can see if the book is completed or not. It is also easy to find stories because of the genre selection button. Thank you for taking our reviews in consideration! 😊

(This app is somehow provide good stories and I like how we can rate and review the stories where you can give honest feedback for the writer to digest. However, It’s quite difficult to find books because the recommendation page always show same stories and it doesn’t say if the story is completed or not (hope this feature will be added soon))
