Wattpad Beta is an online platform that aims at connecting literary authors and reading enthusiasts through its conveniently-portable app. What is more, it allows its users to purchase pieces of writing from their favorite authors in a quick and easy manner. Once purchased, the piece of writing can be read directly on the app, or it can be downloaded as a PDF for offline reading. Reading directly on the app has its advantages, however, as it allows interaction between readers of the same writing piece in the form of comments. Furthermore, the app allows direct interactions between authors and readers, resulting in a pleasant environment and leading to social interaction, growth and improvement.
Without a doubt, one of the most important aspects of Wattpad Beta is its browsing feature. Powered by an efficient search engine, this feature allows the app's users to discover new and exciting authors that appeal to their personal literary tastes. Going a step further, Wattpad Beta allows reading enthusiasts to find each other and establish meaningful relationships. Of course, this also applies to authors, making it easy for them to find like-minded colleagues in order to establish mutually beneficial relationships. Apart from widening an author's personal and professional circles, these connections can lead to literary improvement.
In order to make browsing, navigation and publishing easy, Wattpad Beta uses a simple and effective interface. Whether you use the app on your smartphone or a tablet, this interface allows you to quickly find whatever you are looking for. Going one step further, the app provides a customizable section for enjoying different pieces of writing. By adjusting the size, type and layout of the reading area, the users of the app can create a pleasant reading experience for themselves. What's more, they can choose whether they want to experience the writing by themselves or as a part of the community through comment interaction.
At this point, it would be good to point out that Wattpad Beta is not the first iteration of the app. Originally, the app was created as a community-oriented platform for readers and writers to meet each other and talk shop. Apart from providing the opportunity for people to discover new writers, this platform allowed writers to hone their craft by receiving criticism and feedback from readers and other writers. Even further, it allowed for the members of the community to participate in challenging and fun group experiences such as collaborative writing. Now, the Wattpad Next Beta takes this concept to a new level by allowing monetary exchange between readers and writers. Despite still being on a trial phase, this evolution of the site is already changing the way in which readers and writers interact with each other.
