Here we go again...the story/movie says "Free", which only pertains to the first so-called chapters, which are about 3 minutes long, and then the ads...too many of them! Then you expect me to pay $19.99 a WEEK to watch the end? No thanks...I can spend that money on a book, and dont have any ads to watch! This app isn't worth it to me...maybe to others.
I can't watch a full set of episodes. I'm not a cliffhanger fan, so watching a single 1 minute clip at a time is frustrating. I get that you have to make money, but there is currently no subscription model and the rate of earning credits is WAY too time consuming. Also, to watch a 70 episode short at 50-70 coins each requires at least a $30 investment. That's insane. I can see a movie in a theater for that price. Buying enough coins for a single drama series should be $5-7 to be fair IMHO.
After seeing part of a story in an ad while playing a game, I got out of the game after downloading this app. Wasn't expecting all to be "free" stories, there's even ads/commercials on TV. Not knowing how the rip off works, after watching a few episodes and paying $4.99, thinking it covered the complete story, I found out it was BS. Probably could buy it in paperback for the price I paid to watch 37 of 83 episodes, and the actors were just as cheesy. Uninstalled after sending them an email!!
There are so many ways to watch the drama but only when u watch a lot of ads but at least the bonuses stay till whenever u need them unlike other apps where the bonuses disappear after the next day. I just noticed that they force u to give them a five star and afterwards they increase the number of bonuses to watch one episode from 20 to 35. Frauds!
This app is absolute garbage. I've been waiting for over a week to advance to the next chapter and it keeps showing me chapters I've already seen. Then wants me to watch another ad to see more of the same stuff I've seen or buy coins, which aren't cheap. My streaming services are more reasonably priced! I'm uninstalling. There are better apps out there.
The stories are entertaining in the same way that trash TV and books are, I like them, but, there's no way to buy just one story or get like a VIP day pass. $20/week subscription is ridiculously high. You can watch ads to unlock the story for free, but, you can only do that for 5 "episodes" a day and each episode is only somewhere between 5-20 seconds long which makes trudging through it really slow. You'll lose more users than gain any if you keep the subscription platform as it is.
It locks you into stories and then makes the coins that need to be used go up more and more every time you buy. And $19/week, maybe worth $10/ month. I see people are saying there are ads, well I haven't seen a single ad to keep going. Do like some other short story apps and let people watch ads for more episodes, not puny pts. Shouldn't the ads pay more for the actors in these anyway. I love the story lines,but when I can't watch from start to finish because I'm can't afford $19/week, pointless
Advertise with a partial story showing you multiple "episodes", then force you to download if you want to see the ending, only to make you start at the beginning again. Each episode costs 50 "coins" and you can only watch 5 ads a day not to pay for those coins. Oh, and $5 only gives you 500 coins and they don't indicate how many episodes per story. Very expensive for subpar stories. Once I'm done with the story I'm on by watching ads, if I can put up with the frustration, I will uninstall.
the only thing that is irritating is the ads for GoodShort says watch from beginning to end free. yes it is free but the amount of ads and usually the same one over and over again is the irritating part. I think for every ad you have to watch a person should get at least 3 or four episodes. other than that i love it and the stories.
The ad is a fraud. it states that it's free and you can watch it from start to finish. No cost and then to watch it requires either a payment or watch ads and only a few daily. The stories are really good but the cost is high and really hard to get bonus rewards. When you get 40 to 50 bonus rewards that only covers 2 episodes. It can get very expensive. Wish all the ads that you do get bonuses on covered more than 2 or 3 episodes.
