Review summary

User reviews focus on reliability and UX problems: the app crashes frequently, ads disrupt reading even for paying users, navigation/scrolling is finicky, login/auth issues prevent subscription access, and device compatibility/offline reading limitations hinder usage. A few mentions of content quality exist, but persistent bugs and performance problems dominate the feedback.

Pros

Cons

Frequent crashes and stability problems across devices and after updates.
Advertising and data-tracking concerns, with ads disrupting reading even for paying subscribers.
Navigation and content discovery issues, including poor content structure and scrolling jumping back to the top.
Login/authentication problems where active subscriptions are not recognized in-app.
Device compatibility issues and platform-specific bugs (e.g., Android 15, tablets like Onyx Boox) and offline reading limitations.
