Would've gave it a 5 if only the app didn't deny me 5 times whenever I try to make an accout. And I really loved that app. I felt like for the first time I finally belonged somewhere ...only to find out that the doors locked and the key is nowhere to be found..

Gosh this is frustrating. I couldn't even sign up with my email. Wattpad is far better than this.

Penned wont let me on it right now, don't know what's wrong with it, but it's on my friends account too so its not my phone. Please fix this, Penned has become my life and with this happening I cant post or see anything. Other wise this is my most favorite app ever.

Don't waste your time. What used to be a great app has all but died. Customer service refuses to answer. You can't sign in without data error messages. I've lost all of my work on Penned. Shame on the dev's for letting this go.

If anyone is looking for a good free reading/writing app try Wattpad. I've used it for 5 years and you can read free stories and write. It's better organized too. Not so crowded looking.

What happened? The app is no longer working. Thank god I know my password, but it won't load anything. Uninstalled and reinstalled but nothing works. Plz fix!

Try as I might, I can't make it do more than the basics as a writing tool. I can add text and save but the chapter feature just tells me I don't have a story to add a chapter to - huh? There seems to be no help at all within the app and the online help is woeful.

Why I can't like or follow others? When I like the story I WILL HIT THE LIKE! What is this kind of sh*t! Although, app is okay...because you can at least READ!

Though the app is a great way to get stories to the public, there are some flaws. If you forget your password, you can forget about ever getting on the app again. If you sign up via Facebook, you do not have an email or password set up, and cannot change the password or even receive notifications if someone commented on your story. Customer support is quick to respond, but they will just tell you that the creator and owner of the app pays out of pocket to keep the app ad free and that the tech team was over worked and neglected to include basic features found on every other app or website. It is bothersome to send myself an email to upload a story I had written on my computer; the website is difficult to use and seems unfinished. There is no way to tag other users if you respond to a question they asked about your story, so you do not know if they received your answer; this cuts down on user interaction, basically isolating you. If you like writing stories that are under 1000 words, it is the perfect app. If you write stories that are 50,000-100,000 words, it is difficult to obtain input from others. Needs a lot of work.

I like the application. It's really good when you're writing stories and a great app alongside Wattpad. I would prefer having it more "Android L" style and making it more easy to maneuver with the app. Overall, one great app. Keep up the good work.
