latest version is super slow when opening a "chapter." Also stops voice reading upon entrance to reach chapter and I have to open the app again to continue. So annoying..

The app is very usefull. But the problem is i cant purchase any book. There's a credit card method for foreign readers, but it so dificult to get credit card. Please add debit card too for the payment method. (Maybe pay*al too).

It always takes too long to open the ebook. Beside that, I enjoy using it. I hope you can add feature like "select to translate" that can't be copy so that people who can't read korean able to use it too. Thanks

I already bought the books that I want from the web app since I want to read the official books even tho it's in korean but once I purchased it I can only read it in the mobile app. However, the app do not allow google translate unlike when using the webapp/desktop version. Please allow english in the app even if it's machine translated it's okay for me.

Can you please update it in English version so that the foreign readers could hopefully read them? Update the settings or Language in English ..

This application is phenomenal, because of the multiple devices you can view on at one time I can always have a back up for reading my novels and for translating. The best part is how easy it is to get R19 verified status, very fast through the customer service 1:1 inquiry and charge up my account through Google Play in app. It holds most of the series I had to follow by episodes on kakaopage, only in a preferred ebook format that is fairly inexpensive -You can get bundled deals or set Events.

You need to notify people 'visibly' or by push alarm when you change your system. I came back to Ridi been a long time since I was reading a pdf formed book on my laptop. When I came back, the app has changed its system for example, I could not find a button to visit the website. It took me many minutes to find a line that I need to download a new app to look for other books for purchase... it could have been nicer if I could see even a box type of notification where we used to click.

On the website I was able to use Google translate to read the preview. That made me think I would be able to do the same thing after I purchased the full novel. That was a bit misleading. I purchased the book with my US credit card, but the app doesn't let you use Google translate. That makes me really sad because I really want to read the book, but I don't know Korean. The story seems really interesting and I bet there are other books I would enjoy too. I'm not complaining. I'm just begging that the developers reconsider adding a translation option to the app. Charge extra for it if you have too. Just please make it available. It's obvious that there is a market for this content. There is money to be made here. Us English/Spanish speaking people in the US (and other places) want to read your stories!!!!

Great variety of contents. So many fun stories with easy access packed in a single app. I found so many novels that became my personal favorites like 살인마 르웰린 씨의 낭만적인 정찬, 코드네임 아나스타샤, 마이 리틀 바운티 헌터, 패션 etc. It would be very nice if there's an in app translation for foreigners to read more easily but I still wouldn't expect much since it is a korean reading app first and foremost.

This app/service is NOT for international readers. At least with the preview/ website/ chapters, google can translate for you. However, with completed books you are forced to use the app which is impossible for international people who can't read hangul. What a waste. I spent $ on a book I can't translate/ read. Please build in/integrate the app with a translator. I know this is a Korean app for Koreans, but these manhwa & novels are popular internationally. It makes sense business wise.

I tried reading the preview in your website and it automatically translated into english for me. Hence I purchased the book set without any second thought. Alas, once bought, you need to download this app to be able to read it. No problem downloading app. The problem lies in not being able to use google translate while in the app, a function I have greatly enjoyed while using Google's Play Books. Please, do make it possible for us to translate.

Leaving this review in English: friendly reminder that this is a KOREAN service; I don't think they advertise that they have English. I'm just glad that I'm overseas but can still download this. The app itself is fine. There are occassionally a few bugs, but they usually get fixed. The app is easy to use and I personally enjoy the services. I usually use TTS to listen to the books while i do other brainless tasks, and having a dictionary and sharing function in app is amazing!

Pro: - The app loads super fast. It's even faster than browser. Impressive. - Built-in dictionary is great for learning Korean. Cons: - English interface would be really nice. Currently menu is in Korean and it's difficult to navigate around. - Navigation icons at the bottom are a bit confusing for someone who just saw them the first time. I can't differentiate between novel and comic. Still, it's really useful when you just want to have a quick look at new updates or collect coupons.

Waaahh I'm happy Ridi is accessible for foreigner! And I can even purchase using googlepay 😆😆 This is the first time I'm using ridi cuz there's a novel that i want to read (in another platform) but they have no free ticket for that novel and I can't purchase the cash/ coins. So i'm really happy to find out about this (//∇//) It'll be nice if later the content can be translated to english as well, but i'm already happy enough that i can have an access hehe. Thank you!

The app is great, I was so happy to find out that there are app that can acess to many different Korean works such as Manhwa and Novels. I love how you can highlight lines in app and share them with such a cool background. The only problem that I've had with this app is language, it'd be great if the app also supports English and also automatic English translation 🥺

I am so confused onto your app,It is said that if youre an overseas costumer the words "Answer Complete" will appear means that youre a verified adult...mine already had when i check the website but when i tried to read R19 novels it said it need to be verified??? Bro i already did and you dont have to worry because i will pay money...why do you have so many things to do when people like us will pay ...PLEASE ANSWER ME!!

I just installed this application and would love to use it sooner! Unfortunately, I can't understand Korean language, therefore, I am waiting and hoping that the corporation would provide English as an alternative language for foreigners. Once it's implemented, I will be one of those people who will surely enjoy and love using this application. I am patiently waiting for that day to come where everyone can access all of the wonderful stories stored herein with no language barrier. P.S. 5⭐soon
