WebNovel - Read Novels & Manga

The app is really good and easy to navigate. There are lots of options for reading, and not only novels. The only downside is that if you miss Sundays on your streak, you can’t repair it like you could with other days. I’ve lost a streak of ~550 days and ~300 days like this. Heartbreaking to witness.

It has been quite frustrating starting to read books just to find out you need to pay an exorbitant amount of money to continue/unlock the chapters. Would not mind paying 10-20 euros, but, having to pai 150 dollars just for the remaining 1000 chapters it’s a bit ridiculous. Not even the vio/pass assists, as you also have a limited amount of reading. Wouls be great if an X amount could be paid to read/buy a book, rather than having to “top up”.

Dear developer, it would be nice if the app doesn’t drain the battery so fast. Hope that you would be able to revise the app to work more efficiently.

There are some great stories in there, but you have to pay for them after you've read 50 chapters…
Definitely not recommended!

The stories written are very professional but the amount of money you have to pay to read for the number of chapters there are is really absurd. So i don't recommend it to you…!

This was my go to app for novels the last few years but suddenly they have decided to place permanent ads in your screen while reading.
Not only does this make for a terrible reading experience. It also blocks the last line of a page and covers the page numbers. You have to change settings to scrolling just to get around that.
But no worries, they can be removed. Either watch an ad every 30 minutes or pay a small fee of 10$ each month.
The banner claims it is to support the author but if this was true then they would not be placed on uncontracted and fanfics as they get nothing anyway.
Like I said. Terrible reading experience.

Has it all and more but one extremely important thing that any good novel reading app especially since it's the second best, should have, the dictionary, we cant even copy/paste and search up the word online. That policy of not being allowed to copy and redistribute is working against have a dictionary so please find a work around please. Otherwise it's a really a 5 star app that I rated as 4 star due to the missing dictionary feature.

The stories written are very professional but the amount of money you have to pay to read after the number of chapters is really absurd. So if you don't have a lot of money I don't recommend it

Books cost a lot to read and app does not have reading in landscape!
I wonder if all the payment is going towards the translater or to the writer?

I just wanted to say that Webnovel is only focused on money. You’re hardly able to read 40+ chapters of ONE book before you’ll have to pay to unlock the other chapters. Ofcourse, you can wait for your daily 3 fast passes which will enable you to unlock THREE chapters. Now have fun and read books consisting of 250+ chapters, you’ll be able to finish reading the book in around 70 days without spending money.
And please don’t start talking about Membership. It is around $10 a month and it wouldn’t be so bad if it enabled you to read (certain) books for free when you become a member. Instead you’ll still have to unlock chapters with coins. The average chapter costs around 5 coins to unlock (and that’s only talking about novel chapters, comic chapters costs around 10 coins to unlock). Buying membership will give you 500 coins immediately and around 10 coins daily for the rest of the month. Now you’ll be able to read around 160 chapters of ONE book for $10. Have fun spending money (you’re better of with the ads on Wattpad imo)
I certainly don’t mind spending some money to read books especially if I have a lot of choices. The novels abailable on Webnovel are amazingly diverse (no complaints about that), but Webnovel is a moneygrubber and I’m better of reading novels on other sites that don’t require me to spend $10 to read ONE novel I probably won’t be able to finish without spending more money to unlock more chapters.
Webnovel used to be amazing when you could read most novels without having to spend so much money.
So, I hope Webnovel will change this aspect, but I’m afraid it will only get worse over time.

I get that some people are annoyed that they need to pay to read something, but i do like it! This way i also help the writers a bit... i love everything about this platform! I would recommend this to everyone

I like the fact that there’s lots of novels on here but it’s sad that you need to pay a lot to read a novel. At least make it like Wattpad and add ads and if you want the ads to be gone then you can just let people pay for a subscription or something

It’s a wonderful app with tons of content. I just wish they would try and force their own junk down my throat. Way too many chinese translated novels that I don’t care about.

I love this app you can read a bunch of different stories like you probably found out if you used the app for a day

Before the points came I had around 220 coins and now they have slowly just disappeared?! I also don’t understand the point system. I can’t redeem any fast passes. I am not giving up yet tho, because I love the stories I am reading to much.

I’ve had the app for about two years now and I’d like to share my opinion. In the beginning you could read awesome stories for free but with each update, you could do less for free. The app has been pushing users into buying things in order for you to be able to read by giving less coins for free and by making all popular stories locked. I do not like these changes AT ALL! Right now I’m hardly able to read anything without having to pay for it. Also, there was this recent update where instead of showing at which chapter you are out of all it now shows the percentage. It is so frustrating because now you don’t know how many chapters you still have left and percentages are relative, so for example 5/10 chapters would be 50% but 500/1000 would be the same percentage. Though the stories are great, the app isn’t...

Why can't we collect more coins with the daily reward. I need them or do you think I have money to waste on just 50 to 150 coins.
I don’t care if you change from spirit stones to coins bur do not change the way we earn them. Let me set an example. I had an amount of spirit stones before the update and then I updated the app, I had already upgraded to more chapters from a novel. Now I can’t even earn coins to continue reading after upgrading more. I want to earn coins with the daily rewards. I need them as I want to continue reading my novel. CHANGE IT PLEASE.

The only thing that this version is able to do on my iPad, is showing the loading screen before closing within a second.
