Some of the stories suck you in before you realize how expensive it is. If you don't wanna pay the $15-$40 per week, you have to watch a ton of ads to earn coins to "buy" an epidosde. Each little episode is barely 2 min long, one was only 58 seconds! But they cost like 78 coins per episode. I'm even doing this review to get coins to finish just one story then I'm out. Huge waste of time and money.

The stories can captivate, but can be simple, predictable, and melodramatic. Despite that, a bit of schlock can still be fun and satisfying. Like a favorite junk food. That said, I agree with others about pricing. Subscribing could be good, but lower quality content over double the price of big name services is absurd. A la carte price isn't better and worse is intentionally unclear. And free credits require excessive ads, connecting socials, etc. It's not scammy, but is definitely scummy.

I like it, but it's too pricey. At 1st, they let you watch a lot of episodes, and then you have to pay weekly, monthly, or watch ads to unlock which the ads are longer than the clips and are very repetitive. if your a 1st buyer, they'll give you a deal that I bought because I really like one of the stories, but after I finish my coins, I won't be buying it again it's too expensive.

The app Net Shorts, runs very well. I haven't had any glitches, so that's a plus. I like the selection, so much to choose from, it's great. However, I give it 4 stars at this time because it's getting to be ridiculous on how many times I have to purchase coins to continue. I think the stories are good, at least the 2 I started, but 98 coins for a 1 minute chapter, in my opinion, steep. I won't be finishing these stories anytime soon. 😒

Atrocious? It never kept track of where the former session ended and it kept trying to get me to pay for more episodes. I bought coins for about $10 and got only a few episodes. Then, it was back to prompting me to pay for more. It was never clear how many coins were needed per episode. There was no consistency. I'm uninstalling it. I'm so done. There is no watching an entire story. After a couple of sessions, it starts making you stop by every day to earn points, but you see no episodes.

If I can give 0 stars I would. The money grab on this one is crazy. They raise the price of each episode the more you buy and it'll be applied to all shorts. Even with that, they lower the bonus points you receive so that you spend even more money. The only option is to buy a subscription from them. You also have to unlock an episode in order instead of whichever one you want. Will be uninstalling this sorry app

absolutely useless app. every 5 star review you see is fake. it cost you over 15 dollars to watch one full movie and when you buy coins to unlock the 1 minute segments of the movie you cant skip the segments you already watching. you have to unlock each one 1 at a time. you end up spending more time watching ads than you do the actual movie. absolutely ridiculous to even have this on the app store.

Terrible experience on this app. I've watched ads trying to claim rewards and it doesn't register that I have watched them. I get no credits. even the Days in row that I have watch doesn't work correctly and tells me I'm still on day 1 most of the time. episodes are way to expensive to be worth the wait for getting credits and no way I'm paying for credits that will be used up before I'm done with a series. because they just keep costing more to unlock. very unhappy with the user interface.

I was enjoying the ad that was advertising this app. it showed me the one with the Celine turned Stella Sleep Program, and I got the gist of the story so I went to download the app to finish the show but I could only get to as far as what was already shown in the ad preview. after "catching up" on the show the only option to finish it was to "collect" coins to unlock episodes but really they just want you to pay for the coins so you can finish your show. TLDR: This app is just a money grab 🙄

Another borderline cash grab, for the most part. Mostly overacting, but they're designed to get you hooked and then charge out the behind for credits for series. Yeah you can watch ads, but you progress ever so slowly that way as well, and there are limits. There's subscriptions too, but at over $30 a month for that, YouTube premium or Netflix has much higher quality for cheaper. Wanted over $15 just to get halfway through a 50 ep series. Ridiculous pricing for subpar quality. Just not worth it

Chapters are more like social media clips, very short. Ads are more than 60 seconds each. And if you select watch ads to earn points, it actually USES any points you already saved up in order to watch the clips that you are supposed to be earning points on. You actually end up with less points than you started with. I was going to watch the end of this movie I started, but it's been 4 DAYS! That's ridiculous. I'll be uninstalling asap. And $30 is too much to spend on poor acting.

The stories are surprisingly entertaining, even if the acting isn’t top-tier. I just wish I could watch more shows without spending an hour watching ads for only 3-5 minutes of actual content. $19.99 a week is way too much! Not even the major streaming apps charge that. I dont have the budget to buy coins either. I’ll be deleting the app once I finish what I started watching, unfortunately.

The app has a great selection of series and is easy to browse, but the price is noticeably higher than competitors. While the quality is good, it’s hard to justify the cost when similar apps offer the same or better value at lower prices. Worth checking out if budget isn’t a concern, but overall it feels too expensive compared to the alternatives in my opinion.

This app is not worth your time. The content is entertaining, but if you would like to watch for free, you're going to be watching about 6-8 minutes of ads to every minute of actual program. And if you want ad free, it will cost you 19.99 a week. There is no way this should be 4x the cost of a Netflix, Hulu, HBO max, etc subscription while offering a fraction of the content and quality offered on any of those platforms. Shameless greed, I would have a subscription if it was like 9.99 a month...

Although the quality is good the fact that you have to watch a minute or 2 worth of commercials to see, maybe 1 minute of the drama is crazy. The only other option is paying for coins 🪙 even then the costs are high. Also half the time it doesn't even read that I've watched the ads, so I have to watch 3 or 4. instead of 2.

they get you hooked on a book and then tell you that you have to pay for the rest... so I paid a one time fee of $5.99 to purchase 600 points, which should have allowed me to finish the book. but the points never showed up and after two more minutes of the book they were prompting me to pay for a WEEKLY subscription at A DISCOUNT of $19.99.... I'm not paying $20/week for any book app, much less for one that's just steals your money and doesn't give you what you paid for...

took expensive or way to many ads to watch a series. I have watched over 20 ads today and got no where near watching a full series. does not get you far as episodes are very short. I would maybe be able to deal with half as many ads to watch. I do not see how it is necessary to need this many ads when you can watch full show with better acting and story for less ad time.

All I get is network error. very bad product. on a pixel Edit: Redownloaded and was able to start watching. however, I will not change my review of one star. it said you had to watch TWO ads in order to watch the next episode, however, each one of the ads played Three ads each. So I had to watch SIX ADS for a short episode. not worth it. deleting again.

I've only been trying to watch one show. You get to watch more ads than the show. It starts out with 30 points, 25, and then 15, with most being 2 ads per click. I clicked 6 times on the 15 points to get the 78 points to continue the show to only get a few seconds of it. Will be uninstalling. It should cost 15 points per clip because of how short the clips are.

Love the shows on here! Used to have to only watch two ads to see an episode. Now, it still says I only need to watch two ads, but I get FOUR ADS. I have to watch 10 minutes of ads to get 1 minute of episode. I do pay now and again. If it doesn't change, I'll probably delete it for another app. Have to follow my favorite actors. Lol.
