The Archive Reader

Bro it was so good at first.. no interruptions, no ads , unlimited reading time, etc.. but now it randomly stopped working? Like I’ve been trying for like 6 hours but it just crashes and says it can’t pull anything up and that there’s an error. I’ve been downloading and redownloading, powering off my phone, exiting out of the app but it’s just not working 😭 this was the only app that actually worked for me so I don’t have to use my browser but now it’s not working and now I’m pretty sad :,)

i want to love this app so bad but the adds are just unbearable when the website has none. the concept is amazing though!

I am a writer, and I most definitely didn’t give anyone permission to put my stories on this app. If I could, I’d give it 0 stars. Stop stealing from writers! This app should be removed! This app is fake. It’s not the real AO3. Stop using it. They’re profiting off of the writers! If anyone knows how, is there a way to get my stories removed from this app?

I am leaving 1 star comments to all of these unofficial ao3 apps as a fandom writer because they are THIEVES. These apps are abusing free fandom works on ao3 for commercial purposes without any authorization. If you love those fandom works, go to the official website, and you can leave kudos and subscribe. Downloading this app does not make your life any easier, instead it seriously violates fandom writers’ copyright.

I’ve tried all the ao3 apps and this one is not good

Maybe I am just lucky, but I have not had any of the problems with paywalls anyone else is talking about. I find this app easy to use. The tags search is very easy for me and helpful in a way that the website doesn’t have. The other search is more general and can be used to find specific titles. :)

Honestly just disappointed.

idk what everyone is talking about with the paywall bc i can’t find any fics. like literally i typed in the names of popular fics/authors from ao3 and nothing popped up. 0/5 stars if i could

I opened the app this morning to a pop up asking to verify I’m a human but it doesn’t actually do that. It says they can’t verify and refuses to load so I can do absolutely nothing!

Great app would use everyday if i had it on my phone sadly its only on my ipad and isnt really convenient
