| 2024-10-10 |  | | I used to love the app, but in the past year, I can no longer refresh for newer prompts. Supposedly, I think the app no longer works for Android, so I'm glad I can still access my past stories, but I wish I could continue to use the app as it continues to develop. I really hope this either gets fixed or the newer updates are made for Android as well🙏. |
| 2024-06-05 |  | | Love the app as it really gets my creativity flowing but I hate the word limit. I tend to write in a more complex manner with lots of details and I was frustrated cutting out some things that I really wanted in the story to fit the word limit. Other than that love the app. I especially like that I can choose a specific genre as I tend to write in only three genres. |
| 2023-08-31 |  | | I hoped for some simple prompts to exercise my creativity with, but most of the prompts on this app are fanfiction-tier, over the top nonsense that could only possibly fit into a very specific kind of writing. It also doesn't help that the character limit for submitting a prompt is so short. You're not leaving things open to a lot of ideas by forcing those ideas into such a small box. |
| 2023-07-16 |  | | I really like the idea of the app. I want a way to get ideas for writing and create prompts, but there are a few things I wish were better. The prompt I posted never showed up, I don't know if it just takes a while. It wouldn't let me change my profile (not a big deal but still something I wish I could do). The biggest thing is, I kept getting kicked out of the app because it was telling me it had a bug. So if that's fixed, I would definitely re-download the app.🙂 |
| 2023-06-27 |  | | 5/5⭐️ for the concept, 3/5⭐️ for functionality. I absolutely love the idea of the app. I just wish it worked better. It frequently crashes when I try following other users and is completely unresponsive when I try using the "Request a feature" and "Contact Us (Feedback)" features of the app, which is a real shame because I would like to give the creators my support and suggestions. It also takes a long time for my prompt feed to update, sometimes up to a month. |
| 2022-08-12 |  | | Don't get me wrong, I love app! I really enjoy how if you like someone's prompt you can favorite it and like it and follow them. It even has many different genres you can look up for specific prompts. Edit (I have re-gotten the app and loving it even more! There are more prompts and feeds and my prompts showed up. The ones I submitted were a while back, so I need to make new. But if your looking for a fun way to share your creativity and skills than this is the app for you, it just takes time! ) |
| 2021-10-26 |  | | It is day three of the app opening up to the same three "most recent" prompts. It refuses to refresh, load new selections, or even allow me to write and submit without a number of failed attempts. Might re-download at a later date simply because I like the idea of the app. But for now I just don't think it's working well enough to justify putting up with it. |
| 2021-09-10 |  | | I absolutely love this app! I always have so many ideas but I don't put them into action. At least this way I can get my ideas out. There's many apps like this but this one is just perfect because it's simple, smooth, ad-free (please support if you can) and you can write a story based on someone's elses writing prompt if you want. There's dark mode too lol. UwU |
| 2021-05-13 |  | | This app is great! I love that there's also a community you can share snippets and prompts with. Although I do wish there was more ways to search for prompts, and a way to change the pfp, but so far it's fine! EDIT: My only real problem I have with this app is the notifications system 😅 it shows me notifs WEEKS after I actually receive them, and even then it doesn't show all of them—it adds the rest later down the scrolling list like an afterthought. Is there anyway to fix this? Thanks! |
| 2021-01-31 |  | | Well, I'm a few weeks into the app and I just love the writing community this app affords us. With a constant stream of prompts to write and stories to read, this has helped me to write more consistently. However, my feeds are never up to date when I log in, and my follow feed and interactions took a few days to show up, even when I was following people. Even now, it only occasionally shows the updated feed, and this is really a bummer. I really hope it can be fixed soon 🙏. Thanks😊 |
