amazing but suggestions

i absolutely love this app! So many amazing stories, but i can’t enjoy the stories because of the diamonds. Atleast give us more diamonds or just in general take them away, it gets in my way of enjoying the story the way i would like for it to go. You are supped to pick what you want but i’m just forced to pick one option that is the worst.

Updated version

The recent update is debatable whether it comes to good or bad. Why have us have to pay additional money to read our favorite stories? You were already getting money as it was so why make us pay more? After reading 3 chapters of a story we have to wait five hours to read more even though we would have tickets left. Why? Why can’t we read the episode in one sitting without having to wait and pay? Why the sudden change. I do not agree with this update at all. It makes me not want to have the app anymore. It gets my unmotivated to read an episode that the writers are making. All because we have to wait even though we tickets available for reading. That creates more stories to be filled in our lists that are all unfinished because we have to wait. I hope you consider taking away this feature. You may lose many supporters. Thank you.

One problem...

Episode is a great app but there’s one problem I have. Why do we have to spend so many diamonds on one choice ? Especially if we just started the game , how are we going to have 30 gems to spend already ? If we have to pay just to make a choice , at least reduce the cost greatly. It’s not fair the choices cost so much and the only way to get gems is by reading a story or paying out of pocket for them. You only get one gem after each episode anyway and not everyone has the funds just but a whole lot of diamonds only for them to be gone after paying for two choices because the choices cost so many gems. After we finish a story completely I think we should be rewarded 5 gems for finishing the story. I would love to play my stories without having to pick a bad choice all because the good choices cost something I don’t have.

Help Me!!!

Yeah it’s great and all but how do I restart a story?
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
