User Reviews for Pocket FM: Audio Series

Almost 5*

Add to settings a way for one to put a limit on how many coins we want to use for the day.E.G.: My brother loved the app, but no matter what he tries, paying for coins ruined his experience.1) He fell asleep listening to a story and it burned all his coins.2) He tried to download stories so that it wouldn’t burn all his coins the next time, but now the app refuses to believe that he listened to the stories since he listened to them offline, so he can’t unlock new episodes every day.Please allow users to limit how many stories become automatically unlocked and fix offline mode (so that it registers an episode as listen to)so that users don’t accidentally ruin their free experience after having paid.If a user paid for coins, there should be a way to stop the app from burning coins on the next chapter whilst still listening to the entire chapter. I shouldn’t have to pause with 1 second left on the chapter to avoid coin consumption.This is a small fix, admittedly, since we get so many coins for free, but still has to be addressed to stop newcomers from getting a sour taste in their mouth after supporting developers.Most importantly, offline mode should properly flag stories as listened to so that we don’t have inconsistencies. Beyond these small things that need to be ironed out, the app is best in class for audiobook experiences. The recordings with sound effects and everything beyond just narration is priceless.

Love it but….

I am totally hook with this app! Love the stories that are played!! Love listening to the stories/episodes.. Saving Nora, Trading up, the Return and Crowns Obsession are my favorite stories to listen to plus several more stories. I’ve had a hard time reading books but these audio series are perfect for me, giving me the chance to envision what going on! The disappointing part of this app is now that I’m so engaged with these stories they start only releasing one episode a day vs the 8-10 a day!! I’m almost wanting to stop listening to the stories all together! I don’t like the fact I can’t stop the stories that I don’t want to listen!! I’d prefer to let the auto play continue the stories that are in my library not just random stories that I’m not interested in. I just wish that I could listen to the stories that I selected. This one free episode a day is really frustrating. Please do something about the auto play and only releasing one to two episodes per day! By this rate it will be two years of listening to one story! Absurd that it takes this long to listen to a story! Please please help fix this! I don’t want to lose my interest in listening to this app! This is why I have 3 stars and not 5 stars!

Great app with great material but some glitches

It’s hard for me to get entertained and listen long enough to even start books but this app has had a few good reads so far that have peaked my a.d.h.d interest. I did purchase a coin pack to dive further into chapters of a book faster instead of waiting for chapters to open tomorrow for available reading. This is where my glitch comes in…. So each day they open let’s say 4-6 chapters in a book but my issue is if I do not read all 6 chapters(say I only read 3 out of 6) that were given then my free chapters for the following day will not be given. So I have to read all chapters til the notice comes on saying this is the last episode for the day and next chapters will be free tomorrow. It shouldn’t matter how many chapters I read, if chapters are free for tomorrow then I should be given those allotted chapters no matter how far behind I am.Sorry for book I wrote but honestly other then that issue/glitch it’s a good fun easy to use app

Great app, customer service unavailable, unrealistically expensive,and inaccurate data.

I’ve been using this app for almost 2 months but I mainly listened to one story because of the cost you have to pay every day for 2 or 3 episodes coming out and it’s unaffordable if you’re starting to read a story that already has hundreds of episodes, can you imagine paying more than 150$ for a book that’s not even finished? Well that’s what this is and if want to know more you’ll have to spent how much more God knows… It’s unfortunate that there is such a great app with a lot of potential but for the greediness it’s made so expensive because they know when you get hooked you will have no other choice than to spend more money. There’s not even the possibly to pay a one time fee for a story a plans to make it affordable somehow. But to top off all that if you get logged you lose the coins you bought to purchase the episodes. That’s what happened to me. And I reached out to get my coins back but the customers service has not replied. I tried to call but the customer service is switched off. Overall this is a grate app but it’s made to exploit people by offering some good stories.I was told to send an email after this to get my coins back and I did that 5 days ago but no reply so far.

Great

The stories are great. A lot of them (5 so far) though are very similar in storyline some differences is the author and character names. Another issue is they are not consistent. One chapter says the kids age is 4 the next chapter says 3 and then you get another on that says the kid is 5. It says the story takes place 4 years ago and the child is 3 then it says the story took place 6 years ago and the child is 5. All of the stories I’ve read so far have the same inconsistencies. Because the stories are good I was able to overlook them because it’s not really a big deal. I just think it should be looked into and proof read before posting it. I also wish there was an option to read the stories not just listen to them because there has been major issues with the stories skipping every 5 or 10 seconds which is really annoying. Also a lot of the stories have 600+ episodes and just seems like it’s just dragging on to make people pay more. Some of the stories shouldn’t go on forever and just gets boring after awhile. This is all just something to look into and think about.

It’s pretty okay, pretty good 👍

Okay so this app is okay. The stories seem interesting and I love listening to these when I do dishes, but I have a question. So I clicked on a vip story and I thought I had to pay like coins because I read some reviews, but it didn’t charge me anything. Im a bit uncomfortable because I don’t want it to charge me after the whole story finishes. So please let me know if I pay or not. Okay now I have a problem. So I read review of someone who had the same problem. I clicked on the app one day and all the stories including the free stories on my for you page were gone. Nothing showed there and now I read the vip stories. I still have a free story i’m reading though, but I need that to be fixed. I tried deleting the app but that didn’t work and now I’m upset. I kept the app and still listen to stories but it would be amazing to get that fixed. Im not logged in so maybe that’s the prob but I don’t really want to log in. If that’s the case, let me know please. Thank you for listening and hearing me out. Edit: I found out that I need to pay with coins to listen to the whole story. I can also listen to vip stories.Edit: I don’t think I wrote this but I actually really like this app and all my problems are solved, I have no problems in this app so yeah.Thank you for responding to me!

Loving book, loathing, a scam: Beware

I got sucked into a book which is very good. Between the completely sucking you in and then only releasing one episode at a time, they take advantage of consumers inability to walk away from a good book. Between the dragging it on releasing one episode at a time, I finally broke down, and ignoring my rule of paying for something like this. After I bought coins, and when I fell asleep, I noticed, when I looked at the app that many of the coins that I purchased did not completely go towards the book I was reading, but also towards other books, which wasted my coins. Also, I paid enough to put “finish”the episodes which was not the end of the book but just the ones they had released. Very deceitful and is a complete shame. Going for the now money instead of looking at the long term and keeping customers. I will never listen to another one of her books when I’m done with the one I’m listening to now. Hope the quick buck is worth it. I would be happy to pay five bucks for the book. But now you’ve lost my money when I’m done.

Do Not Download!!!

I was curious I heard the Instagram ad I said why not seemed decent. I started listening to the InstaMillionaire… let me tell it’s TRASH. It literally makes no sense, these people have no common sense nor do they have brains. I understand it’s fictional and can’t be real life but even dumb people have smart moments and all the characters in this haven’t had a single one. There is ZERO character development, no type of Character arc and as a listener I can’t even become attached to a character. How are all the kids going to college but act remedial. I’ve seen all types of “teenage movies, shows and books” this has got to be the worse of the worse. All the kids know is money they switch back and forth if someone has a little bit of cash. My man donated $350 girls are all on him like he balking this is not 1920. I work 40 hrs a week I’ve definitely donated that and I got bills like what is this unrealistic, unimaginative, uncreative story. Please save yourself don’t download or listen to these garbage time wasting stories. Smh.

I love the stories but …

My sister and I listen to this app and I love the stories. So here is my problem with the app. It doesn’t let me buy the chapter ahead of the unlock ones. So my sister have her app on her phone and I have mine on mine. We don’t live together but when we go on road-trips we listen to the app (usually on her phone). When I get home and I want to start where I left off at it doesn’t let me buy where I left off. I have to buy the whole chapter that I haven't bought yet, to be able to continue listening where I left off. Which i don’t need. I feel like it’s just trying to make me buy more coins. Why can’t we buy chapters ahead. I don’t know if you understand me or not. I feel so frustrated. Let’s say I unlocked chapters up to 100 and then listen with my sister on her phone up to 150. Now, I want to continue listening on my own but I can’t since the app won’t let me buy 151 unless I buy the 50 chapters I haven’t unlock yet. Like what’s up with that? Please fix this so we don’t have to use up coming on chapters we don’t need. Please 🙏

Stories noted as completed are NOT complete

I truly enjoy the app and the stories in PocketFM. I especially enjoy the stories when they unitized real voice artist and NOT Ai voices. The difference is night and day, so regardless of how good the storyline is, I skipped as soon as I noticed it is using AI. I enjoy audiobook simply because I enjoy listening to good storytelling. There are really sone great stories in PicketFM. Ok that said I would still give it at least a 4 stars BUT after listening to 4 stories noted as “complete”, THEY ARE NOT! In fact, none of them are!!! Why does anyone wants to spend money and time to listen to stories with no ending?? Worse yet, you dont really know that until you listen towards the end and realized there is no way they can finish the story in the next 10 episodes…and then not able to find out the real name of the story nor if they would even continue it because it said, it’s “completed”. This is extremely frustrating and disappointing so I hope people see this comment would not fall for starting a story if reaching to an ending of a story is desirable to them.
