Good to read new authors and established ones without cost (mostly). The range of genres is extensive and I have been reading for over 5 years. The app is easy to operate, but the occasional glitch with end of chapter emojis causing a jump back to the start of the chapter. Some stories require a subscription, but these are (usually) announced before you start reading. There is a good alert system for new episodes of current reads, and updates to an author's wall.

I do love this app, it gives people a way to express their creativity, professional or not, my only problem with this app is that there is no filters. I would recommend adding filters to help navigate the readers on what kind of book they wish to read, for example add filters such as: 'completed', 'uncompleted', 'werewolf', 'vampire', 'explicit content', 'teen friendly', 'romance', 'erotica', ect. You get the picture. I ask of this because it's very hard to find the exact stories I wish to read.

This is a great app to get free books and discover awesome writers like Elsa Green for example. You can also subscribe to certain writers for a small fee to get access to paying books. From what I gather, for writers, it is fairer than other apps who barely pay them anything. You can interact with the writers by leaving comments on each chapter or reviewing the books.
