Pocket FM: Audio Series 17+

An app that caught me by surprise with addictive great stories 🌷

This book is the most addictive greatest written book that I have listened to in 30 years. The writer I salute you and I am so grateful for having the chance to experience this wonderful story. You have given me the incentive to write one myself I . I always have kept journals and have been very proud to have been given high marks in my English courses. Especially loving mythology, old English literature, Shakespeare and his book Macbeth as well as, The taming of the shrew where the two I read a few times each. ‘World Mythology’ in which is touching distance from me right now. Has the greatest stories of mythology example … like Achilles, Poseidon, cyclops. My adult daughters have always told me that I should write a book I love reading to educate myself about almost everything that calls my attention and I find it’s a subject that helps people for the better! So grateful for coming across this app, that not only keeps my mind busy listening to something entertaining but written so eloquently that i felt as if I am living the story not listening to it. Each account compliments the last! something that I look forward to listening to every day as well as giving me incentive to write myself being that I love to read and write thank you. Yet THANKS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR HOW I ACTUALLY FEEL!!!!👍🌷❤️💋🌸💐🌻🥀🌼💮🪷🪻

I love the App

My only complaint is that you can only hear a few chapters or episodes & then you have to wait usually 20 hours for them to open. The first time I was really enjoying the book & it said that this would be the last episode. When I downloaded the App, this week it gave me 10 free coins, so I used 9 of them to open more episodes. I’m a single mom of 3 so it’s very difficult to find time to sit & enjoy a book. So when it cut off again, I decided to treat myself to a $4.99 pack; which included some extra free tokens. I began listening again and then it stopped again. It had said open for 9 tokens but I had bought more than that, plus with the free ones, it should have lasted longer. Waiting 20+ hours for more episodes to open after listening to only 5 episodes is just too long. Then I started looking ahead, to see if every day, more would open. I’ll still have to wait or purchase more, as some that I’m listening to now don’t open for months (June, August, September) for episodes to open. That’s just too long; especially most people like to read/listen to a book within a month or two. I get that creators need to make money off of their Apps but if I can find this series at the library on audiobooks, then why would I spend money & not own it for good. Besides, it’s not like it’s a classic novel by Jane Austin, it’s just a guilty pleasure of a fantasy novel. That shouldn’t cost anyone $50-$60, if I’ve calculated each time I’ll be asked to pay to listen to it!

Love it but…kind of like a drug addiction

Ok so I would like to start off by saying I love the app, but I feel that it is quite pricey. Starting out your listing to the stories getting invested. Then you either wait tell the next day or buy coins to continue listening. Now I will say you could just wait but the further yo get along the less free episodes you get. This means more interest you get the less story you get. So you buy some coins, now the episode prices very(1-12 coins) depending on how much you listen. This is where my issue comes in again as each episode is from 6-10 minutes in length (very little story progression. Basically for you to progress in the story you start spending more and more. Now to tie this all together you purchase coins and continue listening not aware that the story will continue play tell you run out of coins each episode (5-10 minutes most episodes are around 8min) continuing to get more experience until you are out of coins. I’m just saying be wary listening for and hour or longer your coins are gone. It will get to a point where you are spending $1 or more per 6-10 min episode. My rating would go up if there was a way to regulate the money/time ratio or reward the ones who want to listen instead of punishing.
