How do you search a novel. Been trying to look for a search bar or icon and I’m not seeing one

That’s what I thought l read. That l didn’t have to pay for chapters like on other reading apps. Did l misunderstand something? Because it looks to me after the app. Hooks you in with a few chapters then you have start paying. Now is what was said about the app. a mistake? Or it a misprint? Could you kindly clear up my confusion about your app. Please? Thank You for your time and patience on this matter.

There’s literally ONE story I’ve been reading, Little Ruby Red. At first, it wasn’t a ton of coins to unlock chapters. I even bought a pack because I was really into the story, and I got bonus coins by doing so. Then the chapters bumped over 100 coins to unlock. 132 on the current chapter. Let me just break this down, for logic’s sake. Something I SHOUL’VE DONE when I bought my first pack so I didn’t waste my money. At an average of 113 coins per chapter - and approximately a coin equally a penny ($19.99 for 2000 coins) the full book would cost $146 (give or take a few dollars depending on if you bundle unlock chapters, use free tickets, and the variance in coin cost). That’s insane. Oh! And while I’m on the free tickets (which are treated as coins), heads up THEY EXPIRE. I was checking in, everyday, trying to get over the 132 hump to get the next chapter, and noticed I wasn’t. So I checked my “expired” tab to see where they were going. The 60 tickets I got on day one of the week? Expired 8-5-22…I GOT THEM ON THE FOURTH. Therefore, there’s NO WAY to earn enough tickets with the daily gift to be able to buy chapters. You HAVE to purchase coin packs. Which, ya know, great for the app, but not great for us readers. I’m NOT shelling out over $100 for A SINGLE BOOK.

I bought 1500 coins and was asked twice to buy the next chapter. The first was 93 and the next was for 117. I was not asked to buy the next chapter until the third time where it told me to buy 1500 coins for 14.99 again. It’s a total rip off. I can buy an entire book for 14.99 elsewhere. Would rate it a 0.

To read you need 117 tickets to read one chapter . I was disappointed I don’t mind buying coins but 117 to read a chapter no thanks
