User Reviews

Users praise the breadth of poetry and the clean UI, plus a useful Favorites feature. However, recurring drawbacks include intrusive ads, missing search/sorting tools, reliability glitches (poems vanishing), licensing concerns for newer poems, and at least one report of favorites being wiped after an update. The app is valued for content and ease of use but would benefit from monetization options, better search/organization, improved stability, and licensing clarity.

Pros

Extensive collection of poems accessible in the app
Free to use, providing good value without a subscription
Favorites feature allows quick access to saved poems
Elegant, simple, user-friendly interface for reading poetry
On-demand poetry access makes it a handy quick reference

Cons

Ad-heavy, intrusive ads (long/unskippable)
Lacks search and sorting features (no search bar; limited organization)
Reliability issues including glitches and poems vanishing; loading problems
Copyright/licensing concerns for newer poems and compensation questions
Data loss after updates (favorites wiped) and broader UX issues

‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️Severe Recent Glitching Where Poems Vanish off App. Tried twice both shutting off the app and deleting and reinstalling and still stalls a lot and refuses to load all the poems that were given for some poets.

Great app, especially for being free, I just wish it had the following: - a ONE TIME payment option to get rid of ads. The ads it has are very intrusive. Please do not add a subscription option, I will not pay for it. But I would pay $10 or $15 dollars once - searching and sorting features - be able to search for authors or lines. sort by date written, or just different sorting options in general. Sort by authors birthdate, date written/published, length, type, prose vs verse, etc

I used this app-or at least a close cousin-I suspect the same developer- years ago when I was just a tiny middle schooler. It’s simple interface and great selection opened my eyes as a kid to poetry in a way nothing else had. I poured over them, memorized a fair portion of favorites as well, and had an extensive starred list. (Even made a cringy middler school poetry-focused Instagram account. This app- the source of most my “content”.) Then for a long while, it wouldn’t open. Imagine my delight when I found, myself now an adult, my old friend re-emerged on the App Store. Unfortunately, the hyper-long ads for just a few clicks make the beauty of this app- casual scrolling and exploration- impossible. Unfortunate as I miss the curation of this selection. If developer had a one-time payment in return for no ads, even without search functionality, I’d happily pay it and return to using this app.
