LikeRead for Negative User Reviews

Terrible - do not recommendThe principle of the app is that the more words you read, the more you have to pay. This creates an incentive for the writers to drag out the story as much as possible to make more money, rather than offering quality reading material. So if you have already spent a $100 reading a story you initially enjoyed and want to know the ending of, and the author decides to chase money rather than deliver a good product, then there is nothing you can do about it. Most of the stories also have 400, 500, 600+ chapters, which makes it excessively more expensive to read than normal books which have actually been through an editing and review process and doesn’t contain as many spelling mistakes and grammatical errors - sometimes it borders on not being English. The in-app reviews also don’t work, as any negative comments gets deleted / disappears. So the ratings of the book can be overinflated and not a true reflection of what the readers think and gets manipulated to show higher ratings than it has actually been given. This is really frustrating as there is no impact / incentive for the author to not play these games with their readers or to provide a quality product. If they don’t like your comments, they simply block you from commenting, which means new readers can’t receive feedback from other readers that have already paid lots of money to be disappointed. The app itself is also not that great - having lots of design flaws and frustrating features. Once I finish the book I’m reading, I will be deleting the app and will not recommend anyone start using it as you end up either having to shell out excessive amounts of money ($100+) to finish a story, or abandoning the story mid-way through (after you’ve already spent a lot of money on it) once you realise what is going on..Version: 1.2.3

It a good reading appThe app is have a lot of great books. But you have to spend money in order to finished reading a book and it get to be so expensive. I wish that they could increase the daily or lower the coin per chapter. Or the way to wait for the chapter to become free. Please do something to make it more affordable. Thank you..Version: 1.2.3

Total rip-offCareful, you need to unlock to read the chapter, and sometimes the total coin to unlock differ, mine increases as i read chapter to chapter. I prefer to unlock book instead of what happen to this app.Version: 1.2.2

Pregnant againI am unable to receive my reward bonuses.Version: 2.0.2

ReviewAlthough books are good reading, they are very long and cost a small fortune to read. Maybe some short read books and free reads once or twice a month.Version: 1.2.6

Wife don’t leave meI was wondering if the author only writes enough of the novel to get you in and than when you request more chapters he thinks up more I am getting sick of getting 5 chapters at a time and then still have to wait for them I think I will be deleting this app and go back to buying a book for the book store at least I will get the whole story at once and not have to wait only to find that they are going over the same thing over and over again and it will be a third of the price.Version: 1.2.4

Too ExpensiveThe books are too expensive to make it worth following the stories. Save your money.Version: 1.2.3

Costly! Don’t bother!Can any of these novel charge a standard price for us to read to the whole book?? From the looks of all these novel apps it take as much money as they can! The novel will cost more than if you buy a book, hence I am deleting this app also!!!.Version: 2.0.0

LikeReadExpensive.Version: 1.2.8

The born winnerExpensive and slow release of chapters, as for the incentive for authors, I really don’t think there are any here. Can’t even get the 15 min read time in for bonus coins,and if they think I’m gonna spend more money on another half written book to fill in the time. You gotta be stupid, would not recommend this app to anyone unless your a millionaire with a-lot of patience..Version: 1.2.3

Annoying messages overlaying end of each chapterAt the end of each chapter a message overlays the last paragraph advising it’s taking coins out of your purchase. The chapters are only a few pages each making more coins needed to buy more frequently. The story is good, however I’ve had to interpret some phrases to English in my mind. There are many typos as well. I will be deleting this app when of if I ever finish this book. I may just leave when my coins run out this time, due to frustration! No reply is required!.Version: 2.0.2

Very expensiveDon’t start reading it may cost $40 to finish a book.Version: 1.2.6

This App is ridiculousI’ve already spent £6 to read this book. I’m not even quarter of the way through and it wants me to spend more? I’m deleting this app immediately.Version: 1.2.3

Dont even try itI spent £20 and i can’t even finish 1 book is already asking me to credit again..Version: 2.0.0

Don’t botherThis is so poorly written and does not translate well. If translating to English, a qualified editor is a must. Don’t waste your time or money..Version: 1.2.8

Do NOT useTotal scam. $9 in coins purchased and did not even get through one completely unedited story before running out. There is no way to tell how much money it will require in order to read a complete story, but it is more that just buying a published (and edited) book in digital format. I would like to read the rest of the story, but I am done giving them money. ———- Based upon the developer’s response; I found that I am not even 1/3 of the way through this story so it would cost me well over $30 if I want to read the entire thing. :(.Version: 1.2.2

Terrible translation and extremely expensive!Books are translated by non English speakers, seems like they use google translate or other electronic translator service. Books are all written in present tense. Also, is get to under the stories and keep reading they charge you 17 coins per chapter, and some times in the middle of the chapter they charge you 8 more extra coins, just because. I spent $9.99 dollars for 1000 coins and it will not be enough to read half the book..Version: 1.2.6

Way too expensiveThe app is very clunky to use. Can’t even get the rewards. And it is way too expensive to read. No matter how good the regurgitated story may be, and make no mistake it is , it isn’t in any way worth what is being charged. These apps should be ashamed of taking advantage of people in these hard times..Version: 2.0.2

Good book hate recharge every chapterGood books but I hate to keep spend so much money in just one book and the recharge for every chapter instead of getting all the book.Version: 1.2.4

Outrageously ExpensiveMost chapters are written half the standard length and books are poorly written exceeding over 400 chapters. With the cost of each chapter roughly being 12coins you would need in excess of 5000 coins costing nearly $80. I don’t know about you but for such poorly written books that’s way too excessive. The app needs to have some sort of standard that makes it more accessible and affordable for a reader..Version: 1.2.3

Don’t get sucked in 1 book around £50Is out of rages ! I have picked 2 books very similar with 1000 mistakes, inconsistency and not making sense will 100 repeat it self. I’m sorry I never payed £40 for paper books, so how come every 3 days £8.99 cousins lasted just 1/5 of book is totally rip of afte £40 still not enough!!! Useless!.Version: 2.0.2

Too ExpensiveI already spend £10 and I am only in episode 68 not even in half of the whole episodes😡😡😡 your ripping us off! I’m not recommending this apps. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼.Version: 2.0.0

Don’t waste your time414 chapters to unlock?!? This will take a year and a half to read one book. If I bought coins it would cost a fortune for one book. Also the coins earned for time reading do not work..Version: 1.2.4

App seems unstableAfter spending money to read book, app will not open saying network unavailable BUT every other app is working perfectly. Have tried trouble shooting but nothing. Completely ripped me off..Version: 2.0.2

Fraud!Do not buy this app. You might agree to pay one amount but they will charge you more than 10 times what you agreed to pay. This site is a hack!.Version: 1.2.0

Wife don’t leave meUpdating chapters take along time chapters seem shorter the closer you get to an author update leaves you waiting at points where waiting becomes annoying when you get into the story line That’s my feedback this far.Version: 1.2.3

Waste of moneyThis app takes a lot of your money for stories that never get updated. Waste of money.Version: 2.0.2

ReviewToday I had charges on my Apple account from Read Writer that were not authorized Would like money back.Version: 2.0.2

Summer sweetheartYou don’t deserve a review. I have already spent over $30.00 to read this book and am not even close to the end. This is a ripoff and I encourage you NOT to join this book club. Just to think how many books I could of bought with this money . Very unhappy customer . I won’t be buying anymore ..Version: 1.2.7

The app double chargesLess than a week ago I downloaded the app and purchased enough coins to get started reading a book. But, it was a little pricey, so I uninstalled it.Yesterday I decided that I missed the ending of the book enough to pay for it. So I reinstall the app. And I purchased more coins. The app charged me again for every page I had previously paid for. It seems more like a scam than a reputable app. I am surprised that Apple allowed such an unethical app in their store. I refuse to continue to pay and re-pay again and again for chapters of a story that I have already read in order to try to get to the ending..Version: 1.2.2

Point usage keeps going upI really enjoy the stories the app has but the fact that the chapters go up in points is extremely frustrating. It doesn’t show the price of each chapter either so I never know what to expect. It would be nice if there was one point amount or price to buy a whole story..Version: 2.0.0

Hate needing the coins to read the book!!!I love the books, but I really HATE that I can only read one chapter a day. There are so many other apps where you could read as much as you want..Version: 1.2.3

HORRIBLEThis app is a total disappointment if you love to read. The stories are horribly written and seem to drag on. I’ll stick with Radish and Dreame..Version: 1.2.4

StolenI was reading chapter 21 on a book, next thing i know i’m back at chapter 19, and can’t carry on from where i was!!!.Version: 1.2.3

Not enough chapters a day!!!For the amount of money you charge to read a book with the only way to get bonus points is to check in or read for over 10 minutes. Ask your authors to upload more than 5 little chapters a day please!!! A very unhappy reader.Version: 2.0.2

ScammersI’m so angry that I don’t understand why the apple keep taking money out of my account but not even connected me to the app so I can read the book. This is not the first time and this beyond scams and ripping me off. Can I please get my refund back or allow me to read the book up to a $51 worth. Saane Garrett New Zealand.Version: 2.0.2

Too much moneyIf I pay out for every chapter I read this book will cost 75.00 way too much money like book but will be deleting app chapters are too short makes book drag on and you can’t claim bonus you earn doesn’t work.Version: 2.0.2

More coin opportunitiesThis app is ok. I wish there were more opportunities to earn coins. Can you add more opportunities to earn more coins? What about coins to add books to our libraries? What about upping the coins earned for daily check in to 20 coins instead of 10? Check out other apps to help your readers earn more coins..Version: 1.2.0

Good but bad....I have never seen a reading app limit you to 5 chapters a day, Summer Sweetheart let me read all the way to chapter 806 without stopping other than to buy more coins, then decided to only release 5 chapters today, the 5 chapters were basically a paragraph with no new development, after spending over $100 to read this so far it’s beyond frustrating and disappointing. I don’t mind the money as I look at it as buying multiple books to a series but once I put a book down I won’t pick it back up I’ll just go find another book to read, sorry to say but it’s back to Dreame for me. “Like Read” do better.Version: 1.2.7

Not worth the priceSo far I have spent $14. On this book while the story line is good the translation into English is terrible. And for the price I paid I’m not even have way into this book. I don’t even want to finish it now. 🤬.Version: 1.2.2

Book/priceI started a book and absolutely love it so I paid $2.99. Well that didn’t get me far so I paid $9.99. It says I’m on chapter 127 out of 724? At this rate I will spend $50+just to read a book! As of right now I’ve spent $13 and still have 699+ chapter to finish! 😡 I can buy a book from the book store for less then this! Ridiculous! Wouldn’t recommend this app and sad I wasted my money and didn’t get to finish this book! Disappointed User.Version: 1.2.6

Greedy appIt start with small amount of coins and day by day it increases the coin amount. It’s not free rather it’s a paid version. Deleting this app..Version: 1.2.6

SVery good books/stories but the prices are ridiculous. I have no problem paying a reasonable price to read a book and to help support the writer, but purchasing the book at a store is far far cheaper to purchase than to read on this app..Version: 1.2.4

Poor1. The writing and grammar is poor. 2. The wrong name is used multiple times in the story I was reading. 3. I could have bought a published book for what I paid to read a portion of this book. The plot was great and intriguing. I could have over looked the price if the quality was better or the quality if it wasn’t so expensive. Now I’m just mad that I’ve spent the day reading part of a book I’ll never finish, and I wasted $10..Version: 2.0.2

Summer sweetheartYou have banned me from commenting in the story. we’re just asking you to finish the story. most of us know that there are different versions of this story on different platforms.. please finish so i can support you instead of taking my money to somewhere else..Version: 1.2.7

ExtortionThis app is just an App for Extortion, I pray it is removed. $10 wont even finish a book..Version: 1.2.9

CUSTOMER SERVICE IS ON VACATION???I just downloaded the app and purchased coins. My account still shows No order in Recoverable Order. When I go to Customer Service I am sent straight to Facebook Messenger to be sent the message that it is ON VACATION and to leave my ID # and explain my problem. I guess I am out of luck until ‘Customer Service’ gets back from vacation? Not impressed and want a refund!😡.Version: 2.0.2

FraudDo not use this app. I purchased coins on this app. Prior to purchasing coins, the chapter I was going to read was to cost 11 coins. Once I made the purchase, it tripled in cost to read the chapter. I cannot believe Apple is allowing applications to exist on their platforms like this. I am disappointed more than I can say. I will be seeking a refund. And warning everyone I can of this fraudulent app..Version: 2.0.2
