Ratings and reviews

This app was fine until they started having ads for Garmin watches. Every time. EVERY TIME that ad pops up, my phone freezes. I have to turn it off, restart it, and do something else besides read for several minutes. Then, sometimes, I can get the story back. It's just not worth the hassle. Authors also do way too many silly "author's notes.". This distracts, and detracts, from the story, especially when they are formatted like a new chapter, which means even more ads. I give up.

The app is unique and very well made, all things considered after using it for 10 years. However, I use many different tools, apps, and translating tools while writing, having to go back and forth between many different apps while I write. This causes the app to crash every time I'm doing the translation process of my light novel very frustrating and downright makes me want to throw my phone at an orphan (just an analogy im not actually going to do that.) the stability of the app needs work.

This app is great! However, I've had some issues where my published stories aren't showing up (although they show up on the web), when I got to notifications it says user not found, and when I try and view my reading lists, none pop up and it says "cannot connect to internet" even though I am connected and the rest of my apps work fine. Please look into! Thank you :)
