What reviewers actually said

1. [R1] 5/5 · US 👍🏾: a little pricey but good books
2. [R3] 1/5 · US The five stars are bots: Personally stating that as of today May 18th i found this app in an ad on facebook! I downloaded to complete a story called Your late love means nothing, and i got to chapter 8 and had to pay over $30-45 for coins to continue it!!! this is outrageous for a book !! Then i came to app store to read reviews and what i seen is grounds for a lawsuit, not only are you taking mon
3. [R41] 3/5 · US Good: I love iReader and have used it for 5 years now. The story are good but the price keeps going up. It’s getting to expensive. Wish they would go back down in price.
4. [R45] 1/5 · US Buy a real book: I spent over $100 to finish one story. I could have bought several paperbacks.
5. [R7] 2/5 · US Chapters lock after already paid for: I really enjoy the books on this app, however they say that once you’ve paid/read an entire book you have access to them forever but I’ve had books get re-locked and I can’t go back and re-read them with out paying for them again. Please unlock all the books that I have previously paid ALOT of money for!
6. [R28] 1/5 · US Split chapters: After so long they decided to split chapters up and relock them so you have to pay more and good luck getting them unlocked. It has happened with four books I have read now.
7. [R30] 1/5 · US Recurring Split Chptr Issue and then Customer Service Support doesn’t Respond: I am writing to express my growing frustration with a recurring issue on your platform. Several books I’ve purchased have been split into multiple parts, and I’ve been charged again for chapters. When you write to customer service, they do not respond. It is very disheartening especially after spending so much money on
8. [R31] 1/5 · US Thieves: They are a pay by chapter reading app. But when a book is getting lots of reading they split the chapters to get more money from customers even the chapters the customers have already bought.
9. [R2] 1/5 · US Cancellation: This app sucks they will not respond to you when you try to cancel. Only a email available to contact them no phone number. Do not download
10. [R4] 1/5 · US Scam: They do not cancel your subscription. Terrible customer service.
11. [R8] 1/5 · US Take advantage of their customers: You’ll set up an account and tie your PayPal to it and then they’ll never allow you to cancel. I have been attempting to cancel my subscription for months. They send the same generic email on how to cancel where the link provided does NOT work, and they continue to charge you WEEKLY. I’m now attempting to work with PayPal to stop payments. This is frustrating and
12. [R10] 1/5 · US Keeps charging: I bought this subscription over the summer. It’s fine, whatever. But I decided I didn’t want to pay the subscription fee. I canceled auto renewal. Wasn’t in my Apple subscriptions. I used PayPal to pay and I’m still getting charged. There’s no way to contact the provider and I can’t dispute with PayPal because I approved the original payment and the app never sent an email or text
13. [R17] 1/5 · US Don’t believe all the 5 stars….: They give you coins/ivouchers for 5 stars. Each chapter so far is 180 coins, which is ridiculous. And they don’t give many options to earn like other apps do. Watching adds takes 5+ minutes because of the add, then have to wait another 2 minutes before you can watch the next one, and it doesn’t give you the 75 coins like it says. You only get 6, so you have to watc
14. [R48] 1/5 · US Scam: Having to spend hundreds of dollars to read a single book is INSANEEEEE. Also “leave a 5 star review for coins.” One, it gives vouchers not coins. Two, that’s faking reviews. Three, doesn’t even explain how to use these vouchers. Save your money and support real authors or enjoy FREE fanfiction. These apps are an embarrassment to the reading community
15. [R52] 5/5 · US Not free- You have to buy coins or earn daily to read: High rating may not truly reflect the app. If you leave a review, you get bonus coins to be able to read more chapters. Like most apps, I’m sure it goes quickly especially if you’re like me and read a chapter quickly. I feel these apps shouldn’t make you buy coins to read, or at least give a few chapters at a time with the coins earned and all
16. [R6] 4/5 · US It’s ok: Lots of stories but expensive and takes long time to earn rewards.
17. [R44] 4/5 · US Hidden gems. Need more ways to earn coins.: I have really loved some of the stories. I only wish there were more ways to earn coins or maybe the ability to unlock chapters by watching a couple ads. I refuse to pay what eventually equates to the cost of a college textbook to read a novel that hasn’t even been properly edited.
18. [R54] 5/5 · US Reading: I enjoy reading and just watching the videos and doing task if it means me not spending money to earn coins to read I do it even if I do pay for coins I don’t mind every once in a while.
19. [R18] 2/5 · US Wish the prices on chapters were lower: Honestly loving the app so far but i really wish the price to unlock the characters was lower 180 points for 1 chapter is a little high in my opinion. Also I just realized that there is an expiration date for your ivouchers witch is only a 7 day expiration time aka only available for 7 days witch is really bad since that ends up meaning if something happe
20. [R36] 1/5 · US Deceiving: I purchased a week pass which was supposed to award you with 12000 iCoins. I was awarded 3000 for the week and the coins expire in 1 week so, even if they award me the rest after the week, they’ll expire before they are awarded. There is no way to contact to complain without joining a group chat on WhatsApp and it would share your phone number and complaint with the other 200+ people in
21. [R9] 5/5 · US Great stories: Originally had the OG iReader but that version of this app has been changed to a different language. Lost all my previously read books but they are available on here. Some amazing authors wish I could move my previously purchased reads over to this new app.
22. [R53] 1/5 · US Cannot Log In/Log Out: I ended up with 2 accounts (one on my phone and one on my tablet). I wanted to add the app to my tablet and log in with the same info as my phone but now the account from my phone is gone along with the books and coins I’ve already purchased. Currently I cannot find any way to contact any type of support. Wry frustrating!
23. [R70] 1/5 · US Lost purchases: I got a new phone and lost everything I previously purchased. I have tried leaving feedback and it still does not work.
24. [R218] 3/5 · US Will steal your coins and books - Buyer Beware: UPDATE - After 3 months of trying to get answers on my feedback tickets my account has finally been restored. Upgrading feedback to a 3, average, as they were able to fix the problem but customer service is horribly slow to respond and correct issues. This app will one day steal the books you purchased and your coins. They will not respond to the F
25. [R5] 5/5 · US So far so good: I got interested in reading a story I saw on insta and downloaded the app. The pages are a little short but I like how well written the story is. Naturally it’s like any other app, you can get free vouchers but if you’re impatient, you can buy them.
26. [R19] 5/5 · US Great: Being able to earn enough credits to finish a full story is awesome
27. [R22] 5/5 · US At least they don’t have a subscription lock: Unlike Galatia, you do not have to have a subscription to read certain books in a series. Also according to authors it pays much more fairly
28. [R42] 5/5 · US IReader app: Very wry similar to the good novel app in regards to rewards and voucher. Appreciate the library selection
29. [R81] 4/5 · US God stories and reasonable requirements: While other apps make you jump through a lot of hoops just to read a chapter, this one has good options that don’t require you to pay. The chapters are also a decent length. There are some really good stories as well.
30. [R71] 3/5 · US Good stories..: Love the stories….just wish it didn’t cost cost much to unlock chapters. It discourages readers who are looking for good books to read for free. I won’t spend money and end up leaving stories half read bc I don’t have time to watch ads for coins, then sit and read. I’d rather read free fan fiction online, or go to the library it’s free and you get the whole book to read at your lei
31. [R100] 3/5 · US Good stories but..: You need coins and most of the books ask for 180 coins, there's no way for North American users to log in like using email.so you can’t get free coins just for logging in its a huge let down.According to the faq you can use vouchers to pay for chapters I don’t see that as an option. I’m about 20+ chapters into a book and that’s not cool at all. Hopefully the developers and etc
32. [R46] 1/5 · US Overcharged!: I signed up to pay $9.99 for one week to see if I liked it. It charged me $129.99 and after 23 chapters in the first story I read, it showed that I needed to pay more money to continue reading. I feel as if I were misled about my initial payment and this is a scam app.
33. [R55] 5/5 · US Good but costly: I am enjoying the book I got this app to read however it is really expensive. Way more that a regular book you would purchase.
