It was good at one point. I love the stories creator's wrote and fanfic and other for example. however, everytime you scroll, ad if you scroll back in case you missed a chapter, ad. and I haven't been on this app for a while but I just tried logging on to my old account apparently it doesn't exist anymore when I was just on it the other day. I've also don't forget password amd other stuff and it still won't work. especially with how laggy it has been lately. I might just give up. not worth it!

Absolutely love it!! Coming back to edit this year's later after my 1st review. There has been a slew of new apps that claim to have free stories but end up costing 50-120 just to read one. The only story app that I still trust is Wattpad. It's stayed true to it's writers and it's readers, yes there are adds in-between chapters, but they're short and I love the writers. And if you do buy a book on here to read the prices are reasonable. All in all, 100% recommend over any of the other apps.

very good app. However, authors, who I follow, have said that when they publish a new chapter, wattpad doesn't notify the audience. one of my favourite authors has considered taking a break because of this, they are not getting enough reach. furthermore, sometimes it unlikes chapter that a reader previously liked. the final glitch I know isn't that bad but it's just kinda annoying. when u go to view an authors public reading list for suggestions, it only shows 7-8 of the books on the list.
