4/5Great app but please fix this
The app is really good and I love the books. However, since the last update I find it very annoying to have to wait for a whole day for the app to convert my points into free coins so I can can only 2 characters even though I have over 700 points. When I go to watch 2 videos to unlock a chapter, I watch 2 videos it says it’s unlocked when it’s really not so I have to watch 8 and it says the same thing until the videos don’t play anymore and the chapter doesn’t even unlock. Please fix this. I really enjoy reading and I really enjoy this app. I used to be able to convert my coins on my own and watch all the videos I wanted to unlocked chapters. Having to wait is very frustrating and annoying.

1/5Lost content and no support!
I was in the process of purchasing a four book series. I had purchased all of books 1 and 2 and part of book 3. I would have purchased the rest of three and all of four after I finished reading what I had currently purchased however after reading on the app for several days and having no issues, I got up the next day went into the app to continue reading where I had left off, and all of my purchased content was gone. I reached out through the app, chat platform asking for Assistance to correct this problem. They asked me to log into my email which their app would not allow me to do stating that it was attached to another account which only would’ve been on my iPhone and I was reading from my iPad so they should’ve been connected anyway they asked me to provide proof of purchase which I did on more than one occasion they closed the chat at one point they have refused to reinstate my purchases or refund my money. This is not the app to purchase from they are deceptive in their practices. They do not provide support even when you provide proof of the purchases you made. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS APP. YOU WILL LOSE YOUR MONEY. I have reported this to Apple.

1/5All books
Here to address your misrepresentation of earnings of rewards for free reading. Supposedly you check in daily and receive a certain amount of COINS not points. However you don’t receive these coins and if you do they immediately disappear. The conversion from points to coins NEVER happens so again another misrepresentation, or lie. You get a lot of opportunities to unlock chapters by watching ads, however after a certain amount of ads it requires you to purchase a chapter before you can continue watching ads to unlock chapters. This would be fine if they actually gave you the coins you earned from checking in and the coins from the point conversion. I was allowed 1 time when first opened app to use free coins obtained from checking in. Then all this started, so I believe you see that I am not spending actual cash so now you will make sure I can’t EARN coins. So I will delete your app. Because as with ALL these reading apps, I refuse to pay $100’s of dollars for mediocre at best usually sometimes a decent one but definitely none worth $100. Sorry but not really sorry. I’ll watch your ads, do your tasks, but I won’t spend a dime.
