While you can change you reading screen to white with black text, it seems that the bronzing screen can’t be changed from black with white text. Also, the chapters are going out very randomly. I can see reviews that reference chapter 8, but I can only access up to chapter 5.
This app works really well- with a couple small complaints. The pros are that the interface is nice, tagging system is translated over, and it feels good. Cons though- 1. I paid for the upgrade (which is an ongoing payment, not a one-and-done) and yet though it mentions offline mode, I don’t see any way to turn it on for individual fics or the entire ‘library.’ If it’s there, it isn’t intuitive, because I did a fair bit of digging. 2. The search function could GREATLY benefit from the use of filters. This is a little weird because if you open an author profile, then you’re able to filter by fandom, relationship, etc. when you search a title or author name initially, however, the filter button doesn’t appear. Subsequently, you really have to dig to find titles that might have common names with an author with a common name as well. (Ex- if your author’s name is ‘Evidence,’ that search term will obviously bring up more than just their fics.) 3. The censoring of swear words is exhausting. And again, even though I turned that off, it’s still around. Maybe it’s a bug, but it’s annoying and definitely has me looking at alternative reading platforms.
This app has a lot of great features. The vast majority being hidden behind a paywall. Understandable, everyone needs to earn their keep. However it does feel super smarmy to put the disable censor filter behind a pay wall as well. The app is already rated 17+ So users have to pay $33 a year to read the stories as the author intended.
Honestly, the only thing I don't like about this app, is that it eats my battery. This app eats my battery more than any 2 games on my phone. Other than that, the app is amazing. Great search feature, the ability to create a reading list... it's almost ideal.
It maintains a library, lets you browse and search, comes with good flexibility of themes and has text to speech in any language you care to listen in. The one “feature” that detracts from it is a coarse language filter that doesn’t seem to have any means of being turned off in settings. I’m sitting in the privacy of my own home listening to a fic as an “audiobook” and instead of just saying what’s on the page it awkwardly spells part of the word around the asterisks it inserted into it. Wish there was some way to opt out of that, we’re grown-ups here.
App is amazing, an amazing alternative to the Lore.fm app. I just wish the TTS wasn’t so robotic sounding.
