I have this problem as well. The app has basically been unusable for the last week.
It prompts for a login, but as i try to enter my login, it logs in as guest??! I then click the my profile it then takes
me to the login page, i then click "login witih email" then the same thing happens, it auto logs in as guest.I basically can't log in via the app.
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?

Its a shame actually i really liked the way they did scrolling between chapters. I loved the free chapters which allowed me to be exposed more novels and potentially buy. I had 3 in my library that i would have begin reading in the near future, but having had to drop 6/7 of my fav novels i have dropped these as well. Thus the potential exposure it could have had (and possibly buying ss to read it is) is now gone.
It really boils down to greater exposure with more occasional buys or less exposure with more dedicated buys. I thought the free daily chapters was actually a perfect middle ground.
Yeah i have one left. A few of the others are in various advanced stages. I said somewhere else that for 100GBP I could get 5-7 Hardback book or 7-10 softback book. Obviously there is a translator here too i would expect prices to be higher, but 100GBP will get me enough SS for 650-750 chapters. This is barely 1/3, 1/4 or even 1/6 of a novel in some cases ....
This is actually fine with some free books mixed in, but its not fine when there are 0 chapters from novels i like.
it was a sad day, i removed all the premium novels from my library :'( Once the other ones go premium then i'll probably remove them as well.
I don't buying some SS a now and again (i have done a few times already), but i definitely will not buy for everything.
so many good novels ... all will be unfinished .... :(
From a part-time buyer i don't mind spending some occasional cash to buy SS for the novels i like. I have absolutely no problem supporting authors and site like this. Stories are good and varied and premium always get a little more than the non-premium. But also non-premium did get something with the free unlock.
If non-premium = no chapters beyond a certain point i can't see many people buying massive SS. Instead casual spenders like me would be leaving in a mass exodus style. I don't mind paying for some, but i will not pay for all.
The crux of the matter for me is that unlocking a whole novel is so much more expensive than buying a hard back, which as mentioned above where author and editor have spent a long time on a polished product .... If the unlocking a whole story was equivalent to buying novel then that would be palatable for me,
The comparison for me is that If i spend 100GBP i could get somewhere between 5-7 (complete) Hard back books or 9-10 complete softbacks. If i spend 100GBP on SS i might get 650-700 paid chapters. is that even 1/4 or even 1/3 on a novel. I see novels some novels at 2000+ chapters.
It looks like this has happened now. However, how i can tell between soft locked and hard locked chapters.
I've put SS into various books and have kept up to date on 2 and then switched over. As far as i can tell i have no soft locked chapters on any of the novels which i used paid SS to unlock.
