Reader home, library, and profile

Home and continue reading

For a signed-out reader, Home leads with published stories, their credited creators, and available cast links. Content badges use the current Everyone, Teen, Mature, and Adult tiers. Activity or rating evidence appears only when the catalogue provides it; a reader score is shown as its average and rating count together, and is omitted when that aggregate evidence is unavailable. The page does not substitute generic trust claims. The access comparison is sourced from the current public free-tier and subscription plan responses and links to Browse or Subscription Plans for the full destination.

The signed-in Home surface combines public discovery with account-specific continuation. Continue Reading is ordered by the service's latest session updates and includes both active and paused sessions. Opening Continue resumes that exact session rather than creating another run. Home also uses the complete resumable-session identity when deciding whether a story card says Start or Resume, even when that session is not one of the cards visible in the Continue rail.

Library and saved stories

The Library has separate lists for Saved Stories and favorite creators. Sessions are not stored on this page; use the Sessions surface for resumable runs and transcripts.

Saved Stories shows saved published items that are visible under the current creator-block, early-access and safety rules. A visible card can show Preparing while playback is being prepared; Start becomes available when playback is ready. An unpublished or unavailable public edition can be omitted even though its saved relationship remains. Saving is not an access grant: a visible story can still require the reader's current plan or eligibility when play begins.

Removing a saved Story or favorite creator keeps the remaining items reachable through Load more. That control is disabled while a removal is being confirmed, then continues from the remaining items without skipping or repeating cards.

Creator profiles and updates

Public creator profiles show reader-visible creator information and published work. Favoriting a creator is the reader's follow relationship: it adds the creator to the Library and can supply the Home rail for creators the reader follows. It does not purchase access or expose drafts and private Mystrix Studio data. Story-publisher imprints can have public attribution profiles and use the same Favorite relationship as other publisher profiles. Internal account administration is not part of the reader-facing profile. Your own creator profile is not a follow target. Blocking a creator removes that creator from eligible discovery results and from followed-creator results until the reader unblocks them.

Profiles show work published under that creator's profile name; pen-name publications have their own surname page. Use Load more stories below the profile shelf to reach later publications. If loading fails, the visible stories remain available and Retry requests that same page.

Reader profile and account settings

The Main website's Community area has a separate optional participation setting and Storyboard. A public-profile or activity preference does not join it or share your reading history. See [Read together in Community](/help/story-community) for its privacy choices.

The Profile page shows the signed-in account's display name, email, avatar, and bio. It can edit the display name and bio; the displayed email is read-only. Its reader preferences are cinematic mode, sound effects, and the safety filter. Email and push notification choices and public-profile, activity-sharing, and analytics privacy choices are separate controls.

Profile also provides password change, subscription, blocked-creator, referral, loyalty, creator onboarding, and bug-report entry points. A setting that is not presented there—such as language, currency, or device registration—is not silently owned by this page.
