Qidian doesnt want us to read free
It's silly that they have not said anything about it, bug or intended. They could make a lot more money from a lot of people if they just added a way to view a bunch of adds for ss, lots of people could just run it in the background. Plus twice I actually tried paying for SS didn't work cause this site produced an error so oh well for them.
I just read a thing on the app: now daily won ss expired after 30 days instead of 120... QI is evil !!!!
Morning_dew Same for me, I only read one premium novel on webnovel for all my other novels, I was see elsewhere.
They already have regional prices on the app. In the UK if you buy in app you have to pay £9.99 for something that costs $9.99 on the website. £9.99 is $12.90

Same here, I've bought SS to read some novels because I knew that other novels will have free daily chapters. For example, I often start a new novel with a bunch of premium chapter (at least a hundred), I will pay SS to get to latest released chapter, then I will stop reading it (at the end of a mini arc) until a certain number of premium chapters has been released; in the meantime I'll read some other novels with free chapters or adwall or premium (but by using my free SS). Then when the previous novel has again enough released chapters, I buy them. However, if there is no free daily premium, it means that I would have to pay each chapter released since I stopped reading. Therefore, even if at some point I want to stop reading the novel for a year, no free chapters would have been released and I would have to pay a huge amount of money to get to the last chapter.
I'm sorry but I would never pay something like that, I would rather stop reading or finding an alternative :wink:

Let's boycott this app on play store maybe this might get their attention , we need to show them power of free readers ,those who agree please like and share this
SCARLETT_FEVER how would we boycott it?
If you have a login via the app, You can also login and buy via the web in which you use paypal. Its hard to tell which one is more cheaper buy for 9.99 USD i can get 500 + 100 bonus SS. How does that equate to buying via the app?
Marshala Same, just Webnovel need to pay 30% fee to Google or Apple. This is why you couldn't buy Amazon product with Google Play or Apple App Store. Apple and Google didn't allow double pricing between their website and the iAP.

MikiG As a American who has bought SS I second MikiG. I currently have over 700 SS but it seems it is time to say goodbye.

N0xiety so why are you for regional pricing if you understand this?
Regional pricing will just discourage people from affluent nations to pay more because the benefit is less. That is because the system in place gives a difference in benefits based on the # of ss that a user has.

Disperson yeah this sucks ass
Disperson They've stopped releases free chapters for premiuim novel and didn't say anything for the past 5 days. This is obviously to make us pay ss, which we obviously cannot afford. I suggest everybody to rate the app 1 star. If they don't fix their shit, I'm out and going to gravity tales.

Boycott!
LastEmailDeleted That's because of the Play Store & App Store. It's not Webnovel making the effort to use regional prices or something.
kulmai actually I think that the daily SS 30 day expire has been going on for quite some time now. I think from the start of this year? it's deffinitely not something new. I know I didnt notice the change and the site and app didn't even show you correct number of stones that expired each day so ppl kept loosing stones. (BTW I dont like it either)
