Tapas – Comics and Novels | unitQ Score

NEW REVIEW: Oh, how the mighty have fallen! I used to love MANY things about this app...until they got too greedy! I WILL admit that I BELIEVE my connectivity issues mentioned in my old review may have been due to my device (s) reaching the end of their ability to have their hardware & software mesh together properly because I haven't had that particular issue since upgrading my devices. However, I only use tapas to read stories that have completely free stories now as all the things that made it possible to earn ink in the past are no longer possible/effective enough to make it worthwhile to subscribe to any of the 24 hour WUF or even the 3 hour WUF stories either when all ink that are possible to earn have expiration periods! At least that is the case for any ink on any of the Apple devices that my husband insisted on getting &, unfortunately, the only android device I had isn't capable of having tapas installed and I don't know if it's because my Kindle is too old or if tapas is no longer available via the Google play store anymore. Either way, the point is that I have no way to earn free ink that doesn't expire and...at this point, there's no point to using the tapas app to read anything that isn't already completely unlocked and free! Especially since even the WUF stories are only free until the last however many episodes which you HAVE to use ink to open! OLD REVIEW: I'd GLADLY rate this app higher if it didn't have such regular issues with it freezing up! There are SO VERY MANY things to absolutely LOVE about this app! Sure, like all apps, there are both pros and cons to it but I strongly believe that (for the most part) the pros outweigh the cons...or, at least, they WOULD if the app itself didn't have such issues causing it to consistently freeze up and shut down which makes the most important pro (which I'll put a "*" next to in my pros list {since there are actually 2 pro's that make this a great app, I'll put 2 "*" next to the reason why I would rate this 5 star's if it wasn't for the shut down/connectivity issues}) almost useless! As I just mentioned, I'll list the pros and cons below, starting with the cons and I'll put a "*" next to what I feel is the best and worst: CONS: ~*Regardless of your WiFi or Data connectivity the app has times where it will simply freeze up and shut down and/or simply fail to sign in to your user...it will literally NOT connect to the tapas server AT ALL despite the fact that both my iPhone 11 AND the app are completely up to date and I have even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app to see if that would help...it seems to be a server issue!* ~While you can unlock new episodes for ink, too many episodes cost 300 ink per episode and too few comics are available under the "Wait Until Free" category ~I don't like how quickly titles are taken OFF of the "Wait Until Free" category and I don't like how the titles on that category have such a WIDE range of available episodes...some allow all but the last 2 episodes, some all but the last 6, 8, 30, and EVEN 300?!? PROS: ~*You can earn 10 ink per ad you watch and you can watch 30 ads PER HOUR every single day!!!* ~Every Monday you are given a "Fortune Cookie" with free ink ~Every Saturday you are given free episode tickets that do not expire so...even if you are COMPLETELY up-to-date with whichever comic the ticket is for...accept the ticket/tickets (sometimes it's for 3 episodes)! ~Sometimes, like now, they run promo's where you can get a free "Fortune Cookie" daily for extra free ink on top of the Monday and hourly!!! ~They have ink sales on a fairly regular basis for, in my opinion, a fairly decent price...although I'm not going to be able to buy anything I did want to mention it as a pro since I consider the sale price as pro compared to the regular price and I consider the fact that they have the sales fairy often another pro of the app. ~**You can/use your ink for things like"Weekly Missions" or "Events" and even earn ink by using ink that you have earned! LOL!!!!** As I said, that LAST one would be reason enough to give it 5 Stars if it wasn't for the connectivity issues!

I love. The app and would give it a 5 star rating. But I don't like that. The points you earn disappear by themselves.

Very hard to organize titles you are reading, also very hard to check on title quality. Webtoons is better because you can see user ratings. Lots and lots of titles. I like how you can filter for completed titles.

It only has English and Spanish, then it doesn't work, I just wanted to read the rest of The Beggining After The End

Has a wide variety of stories and novels but the ad system is so buggy. Whenever I get 2 ads that play consecutively, the second one never plays and I don't get my reward altogether. Massive waste of time watching ad after ad just to not be able to read the next chapter.

I can't even make an account. I've tried for 3 days but its just keep sayin try again later. I just uninstalled it.

I do like the variety of stories on this app but the prices of episodes have gone up, the number of WUF 3hr stories has fallen and trying to use their watch an ad for an episode more often than not doesn't work. I feel like it used to be a lot better which is really disappointing

It's okay but in the Spanish part there are very few to choose from from their list

It just keep on loading, worst comic app 😕
