I do have to say the adds are more frequent and annoying, plus at times the app will glitch and put me on the home page instead of a book. I personally love the app, I've used it for years and hope to see better results in the future. For some reason, most of the ads will become stuck and will freeze. Causing me to exit the app and close it completely just to be able to continue what I'm reading. This happens almost everytime I get an ad.

I've been on this app since 2014 and it /used/ to be good, even with ads. Now, there's problems. The phone and computer browser don't match. I add something on one app, it doesn't carry over to the other. It takes away my edits and added photos almost immediately; if not, then it's the next time I go on Wattpad. DMs were taken away, despite it being important to many of its users. Like, I said, it used to be good now it's just...Eh 🤷‍♀️ Please fix the formatting and notifications.

The app is great for reading fanfics and other stories. However, there's too many ads. I get every single ad every time I complete reading a SINGLE chapter. It's really annoying, and I do not want to waste $60 on just a year of ad free. I would suggest reducing the number of pop-up ads when reading chapters . For example, an ad shows up after reading around 5-7 chapters. I don't see a reason as to why there should be an ad after reading a single chapter.
