Flying Lines: Yaoi & BL Novels 12+

Overdue review

When it comes to technical support this app is literally the best I reported a problem yesterday and they already solved it in less than 24 hours

My problem is with some of the translators I don’t know if they take on too many works or just get lazy some of the translations are really bad they be mixing up names and stuff and yet the books are still very expensive and I think it’s unfair since I just renew my VIP pass I’ll continue but I’m pretty sure I’ll cut it off when it’s due cause the contents are not worth the money

Some novels are terribly translated

I’m 100% grateful for the services Flying Lines provides but I feel that some of their translators do not care. Even though I haven’t read a lot novels from Flying Lines(because I’m picky), I’ve noticed that most of the novels I read are poorly edited. There are some obvious misspellings, grammar problems, etc. I feel like the translators just machine translate the chapters and post that, with little to no proofreading or editing. When I say “poorly translated”, I meaning that you can definitely understand the overall plot/story line but I know that some people(me sometimes) really likes to read each sentence carefully to gain a better insight of the characters and plot. However, it’s gets hard to concentrate and continue on when you know that the translations are not clear.

There are people who pay in order to access chapters in advance or read VIP chapters and at this point getting a machine translated chapter is infuriating. I could literally do that by myself without wasting any money. I expect the chapters I payed(which is by completing daily missions) to have been edited, proofread, have correct grammar, flow nicely, etc., or least some sort of editing done.

I’m not saying that all the novels Flying Lines translates are terrible, but there are definitely some poorly translated novels. However, I do want to point out that some translators have listen to their readers’ comments/complaints and have made changes.

some good content and has potential, but currently can be a fussy app

There’s several novels on here I enjoy and (when it works) the table of contents and page-turning setup makes navigating through and reading novels it pretty straightforward, but there’s occasional issues with the app perpetually loading or saying it can’t connect, and it has a bit of a clunky interface on the main menus/pages.
There also used to be an occasional issue as well with jumping to the ends of new chapters instead of the beginning that seems like its maybe been resolved but it hasn’t been long enough for me to be confident about that yet.

I think for the most part it just needs more time and work to fine tune some things, but as of right now I still encounter frustrating issues with the app itself pretty frequently.
(There’s also occasionally issues with chapter uploads and translations themselves but that’s more a problem with some of the users/translators than the app itself, and it’s at a level/frequency thats generally to be expected with fan-translated web novels so that’s not actually something I hold against this app).
