Pretty damn perfect, even bought the "Remove Ads" to support. Ui is easy to maneuver, maybe the only gripe is being unable to hit links in a footnote. This app has some pretty incredible short stories, the community of writers know how to induce cosmic dread on even simple things while simultaneously linking it to another entry smoothly. Been in the hospital a lot, these articles help me cope, and help me wind down to sleep. Godspeed everyone.

Definitely fun to read SCP documents and tales on the go, but when favorites or read documents are marked, it's easy to lose track of them due to an inability to properly organize them in whatever order desired. If an organizing function is added at some point, that would make the app all the better.

It's a perfect reader app except for one thing. The banner ads are completely unaffected by the dark mode and are almost entirely white by default, leaving a very disruptive section of bright light on the screen that gives me headaches when I'm trying to read at night. Closing the ad doesn't help, as it leaves behind an "ad closed" banner that is still white. If it weren't for that, it'd be flawless!
