StoryReel: Exclusive Drama Positive Reviews
Customer serviceI subscribed to the one day pass because I had gotten reeled in by this story and the story was great but the story was incomplete and all of the stories that I watched on that one day pass were incomplete. They just leave you hanging. some people like stories like that I don’t so I tried to cancel, but I didn’t see anywhere to cancel my subscription before it renewed to go to a week pass. So the next day I was charged the 1999+ tax for a week subscription. I contacted customer service and when I tell y’all in 30 minutes. maybe less they had emailed me back they asked for some information to verify my account and they canceled and refunded my subscription. if you’re short story type of person but remember the short stories are incomplete so if you’re a short story type of person that likes to guess at the ending or make up your own ending, this is the perfect app for you, but I give them five star because the stories that I did look at were very interesting except for that one issue of them leaving me hanging and having to guess at the end I don’t like stories like that and I also give them five stars based off their customer service. Their customer service is great, fantastic, phenomenal. they were quick, very quick at contacting me back and fixing my issues with canceling my subscription and refunding me my money back..Beann110423Version: 2.21.1
Apps customer serviceI clicked to check the app out. A lot of stories have cliff hanger endings. The imaging is very good. The app didn’t process through my apple apps correctly. I contacted customer service they were quick to respond, cleared the issue up with the app account since I could not pull it on my end. Could have been a download error not sure. However customer service is on it and no issues..SilverMysticVersion: 2.23.0
My Honest Experience With StoryReelFirst things first: canceling your subscription is not straightforward.
The app does not provide a simple in-app cancellation option. Instead, I had to go to the Account section, then Feedback, to locate their email address. To request cancellation, they required my User ID, a screenshot of my account page, and my email address. After sending the information three times and going back and forth with customer support, they finally processed the cancellation.
To be fair, their customer service was responsive. Once they understood my request, the entire cancellation process took about 30 minutes.
Now for the dramas themselves.
I was disappointed to subscribe only to discover that many of the series were already available on Instagram. In some cases, the drama had just been released on the app, yet I had already seen most of the content through social media clips.
Another issue is the storytelling format. You'll often watch 10–15 short clips, get invested in the story, and then it abruptly jumps to a completely different drama just as things are getting interesting. It feels designed to keep viewers hooked while stretching out the release schedule.
Is it worth it? For me, no.
I suspect this approach works for some viewers, but I personally don't enjoy being left hanging for weeks waiting on new episodes. I've noticed other drama apps starting to adopt the same strategy—hooking viewers with a good storyline and then delaying the payoff.
The reason I'm giving StoryReel **3.5 stars** is almost entirely because of their customer support. While the cancellation process should be much easier, the support team was quick to respond, polite, and ultimately resolved my issue. Without that positive experience, my rating would have been considerably lower.
If you don't mind waiting between episodes and already enjoy short-form drama apps, your experience may be different. But based on my experience, I wouldn't subscribe again..Harmony258Version: 2.23.0
Update appHello, I am at the app is really great but there’s stories that are unfinished and I didn’t know if I needed an updated or anything like that but I did see one of the stories that I’m following changed the cover there are a few stories that leave you on a cliffhanger and now I’m obsessed and I’m gonna know what happens next.Cassik DowneyVersion: 2.23.0
Great Customer ServiceI decided quickly that after I had purchased a subscription, that I would not renew at the weekly renewal. I emailed customer service and my cancellation was processed quickly after providing them with the necessary information.
I did enjoy the content, but decided not to renew..AjactayVersion: 2.23.0
Great customer serviceThrough no fault of their own, I just didn’t care for the endings on the stories I saw. It left me feeling like there should be more. Otherwise, the stories were good. When I decided to cancel, they answered me immediately and told me what to do. I wasn’t ghosted like some apps. So, give them a try. They are honest..Fifi 62Version: 2.23.0

StoryReel: Exclusive Drama Negative Reviews
SCAMI had gotten into one short drama I wanted to watch. So I paid the $3.99 and it said that I can cancel any time. Anyways, I finished the drama and went to cancel the subscription and it says to go into your settings subscriptions and cancel it but it does not show up on there because they make you pay for the subscription on a third party website which won’t show up on your subscription list. So I contact customer service and they’re basically saying your account doesn’t exist or we can’t find your account even tho I included my UID, all my possible emails and screenshot proofs of it not only charging my account but that my storyreel account exists with the UID with my weekly pass trial subscription. Anyways we were going back and forth on this and I got irritated because all they could say was to list all my possible emails. I only have two and I included both. I mentioned that I’ll file a chargeback and report them for scam and I haven’t heard back since..K. aanaVersion: 2.23.0
God don’t mess with this appI feel like I got scammed and tricked. I have had many reels apps, and not once have I been refused the ability to cancel my subscription. It tricked me by offering me a huge discount on my weekly subscription as I was a new customer. And because of that, it made me purchase through the website instead of the actual app. Well that’s so-called website. It is not even a real website as there are nowhere to navigate to anything to get any type of information. Doing my research I found that no matter what you do your account will be attached to your card even if you delete the account.. So am I understanding this so-called app is gonna constantly charge you over and over again every week draining your bank account until you can “cancel” it which is virtually impossible..Honey hootVersion: 2.23.0
Scam scam scamDo not download this app they're a scam I should've read the reviews before downloading. they say it's easy to cancel subscriptions. Guess what, no it's not they'll keep charging you they will keep telling you they can not find your account you will just keep stressing about random charges on your card. I used Apple Card to pay for this and it was supposed to be under my Apple account subscription like all the legit apps. Well this one is not and now I'm being told they can not find my user account by the uid number from their app. Just nothing but jokes guess the only way to stop them is changing my card number which is just gonna cause me more headaches and more phone calls to set up accounts again. Save yourself the headache skip the app and don't waste your time and money..Jzsupra95Version: 2.23.0
OverchargingAt first I enjoyed it, spent $15 for weekly because that’s how most of the apps work. Until I checked my card and saw it started charging me randomly. Charged my card 3 times. I eventually emailed them saying I wanted a refund on what they charged and to cancel my subscription. Unfortunately when u subscribe through the website there’s no way to cancel is through Apple settings and I wish they had better options and more transparent. They did eventually refund me (half the amount owed) which is why I gave them two stars, most company’s wouldn’t, enjoyed it while it lasted but because of the overcharging I no longer will be using this app..XxGalaxyWolfFoxxXVersion: 2.23.0
It’s not free and ads are longer than the episodesI would love to give this app a great review but, I can’t. Even though the stories seem good, it’s really false advertising. I literally watched 16 ads to watch 3 episodes. What’s even worse is that the ads are longer than the actual episodes. Now I can’t finish the story without spending a ridiculous amount of money for a subscription just for them to make it impossible to cancel ( saw this in the reviews hence why I didn’t subscribe). Either way the app makes it impossible for the reader to watch the whole story. I will be uninstalling this app.Cahnelorganis08Version: 2.23.0
SCAMThey tell you, you can do a trial run to see if you want their weekly subscription, but will charge you for the weekly subscription either way. They also say that you can cancel the subscription by going to your subscription list anytime, but that is false. It does not come up in your subscription list and when I went to email them about this they still haven’t responded. Ended up canceling my card out of fear of being continuously charged, but not sure if that will work since I used Apple Pay and have a new card on my Apple Pay..OldlabygrettaVersion: 2.21.1
Stories incompleteEdit to original review. I PAID for the unlimited viewing I was very disappointed to find that the shorts I wanted to watch were not complete. They are all only 20-30 chapters and then there is just no more but the original content likely had 60-80 chapters. It’s very annoying to have paid to watch the shorts just for them not to be complete. I paid for my subscription there my Apple ID and had no issues canceling it under my subscription list in settings so atleast I didn’t have issues canceling this waste of money subscription..Sea328Version: 2.23.0
Scam subscriptionDo not download this app. Do not subscribe to any type of payment. It will not show in your purchase history and you will not be able to cancelled it. This should not happen to any legitimate app. Sending an email will not work as they provide fake email. Very disappointed. Will escalate the issue with apple and credit card line.
I have email the developer/ email that was provided and still did not get any response and was again charged the the weekly subscription. Please assist with cancellation..Lune_lune2xtVersion: 2.22.0
No way to cancel subscriptionDo NOT become a member!! It is extremely difficult to cancel as it is not connected to your Apple ID - even though I used my Apple account. I followed their instructions to go through my settings and it was a lie as it wasn’t connected to my Apple account to cancel. That is false instructions they give you!
I also reached out to their support team, way in advance of the renewal, and they are completely unresponsive. Don’t do it! It’s not worth it..AncientCrystalsVersion: 2.22.0
Wanting to cancel the subscription, been trying to find a way to cancel and it doesn’t let meWanting to cancel my subscription and it doesn’t let me through the way it says to go through. I have been wanting to cancel for a while, the stories are nice but they end so short, stories should be longer especially if you pay for the subscription, I need them to reach out to me so I can cancel it.RoseDracoVersion: 2.22.0
Unfinished AI storiesThis app a long with many like it are using Ai for their “movie shorts.” Unfortunately the characters don’t know how to say words properly. They change the names of the characters, and sometimes get a strange accent out of nowhere. If you can get past that you’ll find most stories incomplete. You’ll waste time getting enough coins to unlock chapters only to be left hanging..Chuck1981Version: 2.22.0
SCAMWill not let you out of subscriptions! Read the reviews first. It’s such a scam not even sure why Apple allows it as an app. Should be illegal at this point. If you pay for a subscription it doesn’t go through your Apple subscriptions like it says it will It goes through a third-party Hong Kong billing service. These other ratings have to be fake..Blue_vixenVersion: 2.23.0
DO NOT GET THIS APPThis app is terrible, I’m not sure who designed it but the creators know exactly what they’re doing and SCAMMING you. You have to purchase everything like a day pass, weekly pass etc. through a separate website DO NOT DO THIS. Then when you want to cancel they say oh no we can’t find your account. Go figure, so I’m disputing any charges with this terrible slimy scam of a company. Bring your money elsewhere!.OhitsbubblesVersion: 2.23.0
BewarePay attention to the fees you pay weekly. If you cancel your account screen shot the dashboard with your account information. They will continue to bill you after you cancel it. You email them they play games and keep sending you the same email back without resolving the issue of the recurring charge..FyrmedikVersion: 2.23.0
Have to give a starDownloaded this app and tried to cancel the weekly subscription because it’s too expensive for the reels they have. Was impossible to cancel.

No story endingsThink thousand times before subscribing this app. You ll get trap and, frustrated.
The stories are copied from another app and dont have endings.
No clear way to unsubscribe. If you ever need yo contact their customer service. Its a wrong email address. I had to file a report and call my bank because they kept charging amount i did not agree. Its a spam..Jfgin15Version: 2.22.0
Not an “in-app purchase”In their app it lies and says it’s an “in-app purchase”. However in-app purchases do not route you to a different website outside of the app. People would be much happier if you were actually transparent and made cancelling much easier. I’m glad I noticed this before subscribing and came to read the reviews. It’s such a shame..Would have been 5 starsVersion: 2.23.0
Do NOT subscribe to this app.I signed up using Apple Pay, but the subscription does NOT show up under Apple Subscriptions — which means you cannot cancel it through Apple like normal. There is no clear way to cancel inside the app either.
This is misleading and feels intentionally designed to make cancellation difficult.
I had to email support just to request cancellation, which is unacceptable in 2026. Any legitimate app should allow users to easily manage or cancel their subscription.
If you value transparency and control over your payments, avoid this app..ClearIntent31Version: 2.21.1
Do NOT Subscribe!!If i could give zero stars i would. I wish i would’ve read the reviews BEFORE i subscribed! The subscription does not show in the Apple subscription section so it makes it very hard for you to cancel.

Bait and switch - no finished storiesNone, and I mean none, of the stories I signed up to watch were finished. I kept getting advertisements to watch the shows. I checked and the shows were complete, but this app baits you to purchase but doesn’t load the whole show.

Practicing Fraud to UnsubscribeI have emailed on several occasions to cancel a weekly subscription. It does not come up in my Apple and the emails that were indicated back as undeliverable.

Glitchy and most stories end without being finishedStarted watching a story that was really good. Was roped in from an ad. In order to finish it, I made a purchase and then got to the “end” only to find it ended abruptly with zero finality to the story line. So I tried another, same thing. Tried another, same thing again! Almost all of the stories only have 20 “chapters” and almost every single one is incomplete. On top of this, the AI video, names and other details change chapter to chapter and is beyond glitchy. Appearances of main characters are different almost every chapter and half of the chapters repeat the same few sentences as previous chapters. It is the worst reel app I have ever used and is a HUGE waste of money. Don’t waste your money or time on this app when there is many others with basically the same stories that are way better quality and finished..Njaa23Version: 2.21.1

You can’t cancel it through the app, or through the App Store, or through your card, and I’m being told to freeze my card.

Decent storiesOverall the stories are pretty good.
When it comes to the coin rewards they’ve got it backwards and stupid.
Why do I have to watch nine ads just to get my 20 daily bonus that’s stupid why wouldn’t you take those ads revenue them back into your shows and maybe make us watch 16 episodes or 15 ads each episode that way instead of making us watch nine hours for a daily reward it doesn’t make sense and it’s stupid when I finish this particular series I am on I’m probably gonna delete the app and not get it again so many other apps are very similar stories and way better reward system systems you need to fix your reward system severely there’s so many problems with it. Because not all of us wanna go and spend $200 to watch. Subpar AI shows not to mention your episode are a lot shorter than a lot of of the other apps only reason I actually got this app was because I was harassed by the white fox being a jerk on Facebook and I had to find out what happened but everything else on your app just looks a little blah and this story is blouse as well but now I gotta finish it.Cindy B 19Version: 2.23.2
