## Goodreads Reviews in Japan

### *---- "Only supporting PST time zone"
It is genuinely annoying that Goodreads only supports PST time zone.
-- K***********h, 2025-03-20

### *---- "I really like this app and use it a lot BUT…."
The number of times I have foolishly typed in a lengthy review only to have it disappear for ever because I clicked outside the window. Never, never, never type a review in this app. Type it outside in a proper notepad application and paste the review into the app when you have completed it to avoid losing all your work. 

More stars lost because it is hard to get your data out of the app. I don’t think I have succeeded once in being able to export the data out from the website. you can’t do it in the app.

More stars lost because the API was taken away. That was a real bonus to power users but admittedly the API was pretty terrible.

Another star lost because I have never dared to connect my Kindle account to Goodreads because I don’t want all my book purchases to be public. I have read other comments where people are saying the opposite, “Where are my purchases?” Apparently, you have to enable them to be public. Maybe it’s clear to the developers but there seems to be a lot of user confusion about this.

Lastly, I don’t recall a single improvement to this app since it was introduced. It looks the same and has the same clunky feel. I kind of doubt that there is anyone working on it apart from making sure it still runs the latest iOS version.
-- Nermal Stretch, 2025-02-16

### *---- "Upset"
I’ve been using this app for many years and was recently booted from the app and asked to sign in, but apparently I never had an account and I’ve lost all my data will never use this again. I wouldn’t recommend it.
-- johnny103, 2025-01-28

### **--- "Reading challenges"
Bring back the option of easily accessing your friends' reading challenge goals :(
-- epionnea, 2025-01-04

### ***-- "Language preference"
Results often include many entries that are not relevant because they are in a language the user does not understand.
A preference for primary language(s), and additional language(s) would facilitate presentation of relevant results in the preferred order increasing utility and discoverability of new texts.
-- ph0|0n, 2024-12-23

### ***-- "Good!"
Love that i can follow my friends and check what they have read. Also a nice tool to track your books too. One thing to improve would be the UI UX. Extremely slow.
-- Emily in Japan, 2024-11-05

### ***-- "REDESIGN UI/UX PLEASE"
Ive never written a review for an app but I feel so strongly for this that I had to write. 

I love this app. Lots of users and reviews of books that make me feel like Im part of a huge book community. I get to yap about books digitally and it’s great. BUT. 

The UI/UX design for this app MUST improve. 

Reviews/Star: 
Why is there no option for giving .5 ratings? 
Please make it like letterbox where you can do that so it’s more accurate. 

Friends: 
I don’t even know why it’s so hard to navigate and add friends. Or look at their updates. The design of the app itself feels like it’s meant for desktop computer… it should be adapted to a smartphone.
-- nnn86763, 2024-10-10

### *---- "Wouldn’t stop quitting by itself"
It was a great app but there are just so many bugs. It wouldn’t stop closing the app on me especially when I’m typing out a review. After the third time I just start typing it out somewhere else. The notification to update the app will pop every time I open the app even though I have checked app store multiple times but theres nothing to update
-- al-91, 2024-01-27

### **--- "Consistently crashes"
right in the middle of a long review I’m reading. For real: I’m doing nothing but slowly scrolling as I read, and the app disappears. Happens every time I try to use it!
-- pgm60640, 2023-06-28

### *---- "Problems with users"
A large number of users if this application are harassing authors even before their books are being published because the story in the book doesn’t agree with their wokey world views. There is a major news article about this in the NYT today.  Please put a stop to this or I and my book club friends will be dumping this ‘application’.
-- Stoogez, 2023-06-27

### *---- "very bad"
This app is very bad app you can select only "Want to read"  but you can't read any interesting book Very poor bad app 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
-- Hapana888, 2023-03-04

### ****- "only problem i have"
plz plz plz add a function to be able to add books that are not in the library yet, for rating and recording :(
-- ffffiiiixxxxx, 2022-08-13

### *---- "Not supported on my device."
I used to have this app but it disappeared at some point...

What’s up with apps that only support newer iOS versions :(((
Is it sooo difficult for you to make your app compatible with earlier iOS???
-- Errant Knight, 2020-04-21

### ****- "CAN’T CLICK ON THE “READ MORE”"
i’ve been using this app since 2014/2015 but just a month ago, I couldn’t click the “read more” signe and I couldn’t read the entire synopsis 😭
-- iamsupermaine, 2019-05-05

### ***** "Kindle books and goodreads"
I linked my amazon account(kindle) and this app, however I can’t see the purchased kindle books yet. Why though?
-- hiiiitoooomiiii, 2019-04-25

### *---- "Bookshelves"
What happened to the app? I loved it, I sill love it but I can't see my currently reading shelf in the app and if I search within my shelves, there's no button to go back to search within my shelves. Bugs???
-- Tifch, 2018-02-11

### ***** "Very handy app"
I can keep a record of books that I've read, and to read in the future. Thanks to goodreads!!
-- Khin YM, 2017-05-04

### ***** "Awesome!!"
Amazing conveniency, bookworming up!
-- kaanmetu, 2017-03-15

### ***** "Love it!"
Love it!  I wish it was more popular in Japan.
-- chheeeeeez, 2017-02-09

### ***** "Love it!!"
I can use it as diary of books, and possible to search many interesting books, quite good 5 stars! :))
