not a good reading app weekly prices. lowest I could see was 9.99 a week. $40 a month!!! but I'll give 5 stars just for the coins. doesn't give you anytime to actually read part of a chapter after the "free" chapters to prompt for a 5 star rating. there are many other apps for a LOT less money. I bought 500 coins so we'll see how long that lasts. I'll probably uninstall after I use them.
Reviews for Goodfic - Web Novel & Booktok
← Back to Goodfic - Web Novel & BooktokIt says bonuses expire in 30 days, but most of the bonuses I got from yesterday, are already expired. It takes 2+ days to get enough bonuses to open 1 chapter, but they expire before I can even use the ones I saved from the day before. You can only do a very limited number of things daily for bonus. It's extremely frustrating and it's the reason I really dislike apps like this. There are a lot of good stories, but I'd save your time and money. Save $ and buy the book on Kindle or another format.
Terrible. I thought I was buying coins, but nope bought a subscription. it kept charging my card 10.69. it took me forever to figure out how to cancel my subscription. Just go to your Google play app and type in goodfic. go to the bottom and click app settings and then type in cancel my subscription. Hit manage subscription and hit cancel subscription. I hope this helps other people who has this problem too.
That 1 star is for the prices not the stories. Too expensive. One chapter for 199? The daily reward is 5 to 10. You can't earn enough to get 1 free chapter a week. The popup ad is annoying. You could offer a weekly and monthly membership to read an entire book. Your memberships will at best allow a few chapters of a story to be read. I definitely won't try to finish this book. 50 chapters x 199 9,950 that's the $99.99 package 10000 coins. NOT 👎 FOR ONE BOOK? Make your prices affordable
Unlike a lot of these webbooks, they only let you read the part they offered in the ad for free. Then they want 199 coins to continue reading. You haven't read enough to prove its worth paying for yet. I uninstalled the app. I have Kindle. I have no interest in repeatedly paying $5-10 for a neverending book when I can pay a one-time price for a Kindle book.
Too Expensive. I downloaded the app because the first few chapters of the story I read seemed like a good premise. When I went to try and read another chapter, it states I need 199 coins to read the chapter. That being said, the coins you're allowed to gain without buying are 5 at a time. It would take me over a month of checking in daily to raise enough credits for 1 chapter. I removed it immediately.
It is stupidly expensive just to read more than a few chapers. The chapters often repeat entire paragraphs, or double charge points, even charge you and nit give you your purchase, or take coins and not unlock chapters, or relock chapters in stories you already paid to unlock. Its also super glitchy, constantly freezing ir not loading stories. Overall this is probably one of, if not the worst of these kinds of apps. Not worth it at all, and a lot of their stories are stolen anyway.
this app is too expensive tbh, I opened it and barely scrolled through 1 chapter (which I paid for) after putting 500 coins and already the balance was eaten up, next chapter was costing me 199 coins to read. not even the other apps cost that much, at most 70 coins (which is already expensive) I feel like I wasted my money. won't continue using, I'll delete immediately.
I'd give lower if I could. My first locked chapter I ran into demanded 199 coins. Logging in gives you 10 with 3 videos available a day. It will take you 20 days without videos just to unlock a single chapter with no cool downs for a free chapter. I also got a notice that I got a free unlock for a chapter and then it wasn't given to me. I wanted to use the app for a book I got an ad for but this isn't worth it. 0/10
I just started using the app. But it's pretty easy to navigate and find a good book. BUT, they give you next to nothing for coins, the chapters are overly expensive, and they need serious editing. The geammar is beyond bad, the misspelled and misused words are rampant. Not worth your money.
Not worth it. expensive and too many ads. I thought this would be like some of the other apps I have used where it is easy to get coins so you can unlock chapters. Or read more than a short blip and then watch one add to continue. Not this one. You get maybe a minutes worth of a chapter, and then you have to watch 3 lengthy ads to unlock the next short chapter. I didn't even try to buy coins. Too expensive with too low of a return for coins. the chapters cost too much if you plan on using coins
The story I started to read was really good. The problem came with the cost to open the chapters. 199 coins for 1 chapter? Seriously, that is too much, especially considering there is no way to earn coins except for a measly 5 coin check-in daily or 5 coins per ad and of course we are limited on how many ads we can watch. It doesn't matter. At 5 coins a pop, it would take forever. The only choice is to pay and as usual, the value isn't there. You're overpriced, considering what you're selling.
I downloaded this after reading part of a story that seemed interesting, but to finish the short story of 23 chapters, I would need to spend around $30 which I'm not willing to do for a one-time read of an online book. You can watch ads to earn coins but the coins expire which basically make them useless and forces you to pay. The navigation in the app is also terrible - it contains pop-ups when you try to back out of the story which was really annoying. I would not recommend this app.
DO NOT TOP UP OR MASS UNLOCK CHAPTERS!! I purchased coins to do a bulk chapter unlock and it took my money, the coins, didn't unlock the chapters, and now every chapter (even the previously unlocked ones) is only showing the first paragraph or two and nothing more. I reached out to customer support 3 or 4 days ago and have gotten no response or attempt to resolve the issue. I was really enjoying the story I was reading, but it's definitely not worth all of this!
I bought coins once for a semi-interesting story. I ran out and couldn't afford to buy more. Today, I got an email telling me that 9.99 had been charged to my card. I couldn't figure it out. The symbol for the app was unfamiliar to me--that's how infrequently I've used it--and I had to look through my apps to find it. Turns out they signed me up for a weekly subscription without my permission. I have since canceled it, and I will be deleting this POS as soon as I spend my coins.
Another app where you're forced to watch the ad so you download the book app, which by far are the worst. Each chapter costs so many coins that you're forced to pay. But it's never worth it because you don't get enough to read the book. You can buy a physical book for $15 so why pay that for 9 or 10 chapters in a book that has 100 chapters. Uninstalled for sure. Just watch video apps that are much cheaper or almost free.
This app is ridiculous!! I read 5 chapters and then it tells me I need 199 coins to open the next chapter. I even checked the options to pay money and it's even more ridiculous! For $9.99, they'll give 1000 coins and 200 bonus that gets you 5 chapters ( as long as they don't charge different amounts per chapter ). Needless to say I am uninstalling the app.
Great stories. Awful amount of rewards. The chapter cost? 199 "coins" My login bonus? Only 5 tickets a day. I'll be reading that next chapter in a few days, logging in daily and completing the extra tasks. How dumb. If the prices continue to rise, it'll take weeks. Other apps have way better programs and chapter progress. Some have ad options to unlock chapters for example, and others have tons of free reward tasks with more affordable chapter prices. Maybe this app should look into adding some.
i started a story because it was good from the ad and it said it was free in the app. by once i downloaded the app its not free and the chapters are really pricey. each book would cost $30 or more to finish. you do get ads to get free coins but not enough to read one chapter before they start to expire. they did update the app to watch a few videos to get a couple of chapters for free.
F.Y.I.:The story I'm reading is good & interesting, but I paid $5 for coins, to read a "WHOPPING 3 chapters", & the app would NOT SHOW how much it would cost to unlock new chapters. Looks like subscribing to buy even a small amount of coins is THE ONLY way they can be BOUGHT, then unsubscribe right after, otherwise getting charged every week, on a small budget will be an issue. I hope this helps others & their budgets aren't thrown off. I know people need to be paid, if course, but be up front
