Great Stories - Issues w/App

This is the first reading app I downloaded and I’ve definitely been addicted from the beginning. Most of the stories are amazing. I’ve read so many great books! Lately, every time I come out of a book, no matter the reason, I lose my place. This I beyond frustrating when I’ve purchased or downloaded the entire book and I have to hunt and flip through chapters to find my spot. Also within last few week to a month, it stopped notifying when a new chapter has been added to an ongoing book I’m reading. There has also been a significant increase in the costs of books, which saddens me greatly! By the time you purchase enough coins to buy entire books, it far exceeds what the typical cost would be to purchase an actual book. Also, I absolutely despise the short time limit you have to use the bonus coins when using a “coupon” to top up!! I try to use them wisely but am often rushed into using them before I lose them. I think it’s unfair that the majority of the top up in this situation is switched to bonus coins anyways, I’ve spent money and earned the points for that top up, it should remain the same balance of coins vs bonus as is when a coupon isn’t used.

All about the money

This was one of my favorite places to read, and it still is. They still have some of the best stories. But one thing I’ve noticed since I’ve been back, it’s all about the money. They changed so much. They took away the wait for free method of reading and changed the read and earn method completely. Before the purple unicorn coins (now point) were enough to open chapters, but now you have double/triple what you used to to covert it to gold coins; and the conversion is very steep prices and expensive — 40 points = 2 coins. That gets absolutely nothing in the terms of chapters even with the supposed “50%” sale they have. On top of that the method is harder than it should be because the system doesn’t acknowledge your reading accurately. If I spend 1 hour reading it will acknowledge 20-30 minutes; and I know this for a fact because I timed myself multiple times. And the icing on the cake that makes this even harder for people who can’t afford to buy coins is that they expire, and quickly. If you’re tying to save up for a book that is 30 gold coins (and that’s the sale price) it’s hard to do with coins expiring within 5 days of you earning them. And to make things even worse, they have a limited amount of points to coins conversions/limited time to convert them. Let’s say their system may have 100 conversions per category for a 6 hour time frame, and if you miss it because they sold out or cause you didn’t have time you lose out.

Lovely idea

I love the idea of this app and what it has to offer but I am discovering more issue with it the longer I use it. I love that it offers writers a place to post and put their names and ideas out there. But I dislike that we have to pay for books per chapter or that depending on the story it has a timer that is a longer wait time for every chapter. I dislike that your “daily bonus points” often times don’t show up in my wallet and if they do it’s only in certain books. I hate that there are many books available that have multiple chapters that are the same writing and some books are missing chapters all together. I don’t like that I spend money on a chapter and go back into it later and find that my points are gone and the chapter I unlocked is no longer unlocked. I don’t like that you have to spend your “daily bonus points” within a week of getting them or they just disappear? This is the apps way of making you spend money to get enough points to read A SINGLE CHAPTER. I have tried re-downloading the app and have even gone as far as making a second account on a different device and I have the same issues. I am seriously dealing with this app because I am invested in a couple stories and I will be deleting it once done.
