Ratings and reviews

I love the app so much as it made me improve myself, the thing is, the rates were expensive and not attainable for some people that they as well read some articles for a short span. I wish that the developers would consider the underprivileged people who cannot buy a premium account or weren't able to avail subscription. I could suggest that prolonging the availability to read the articles would be beneficial to all, excluding the idea of decreasing the rates of subscription.

I'd love to read more, but it wants me to buy premium first before I can read. The app is really wonderful yet you first need to have money to experience it. I am a grade 11 student and I really want to read but books are really expensive so I could not afford to buy one. A classmate of mine recommended me this app just now and I was happy that I could read a lot of things from the app. Once I finished reading "Su*c*de is about wanting to live" and "The kindest thing you can do for yourself"

I already pay for a subscription for Medium. Almost every time I open the app to read a member only article, I keep getting asked to upgrade to a higher level. This is a ridiculous and non-sensical thing to do, but I guess Medium does not care about how annoying this is for already paid customers. Other than that, I enjoy reading the articles that I am interested in.
