Ratings and reviews

very little in this app works. Bought coins, my bank was charged, but no coins delivered (but thank you customer service for saving the day!). using the search function or the filter function on Titles does literally nothing; no matter what it still shows every single title. if I've already purchased a book, I can read it, but aside from that it's essentially useless.

The app is really lightweight. The reader does not use a lot of power so your device will not overheat during long reading. They have a good library of manga. The only thing they really need to work on is the search function. It is unable to search for anything by title and it couldn't tell the difference between a manga and a novel. They seem to just add the word manga to the title and it is up to the user to find it by scrolling through the library.

I love the concept and the content. I think the app could be improved to provide a better reading experience. It works as it is but doesn't make it easy to discover new content or keep up with a series that you haven't bought or followed. Going through the whole catalog on the app is an annoying process. You can't sort by tags, and you have to go into the volume page to find a synopsis. There's more small things, but because of those small things, I don't want to use the app very much.
