I have a love-hate relationship with these types of apps. On one hand, Light Novel World gives me instant access to stories I'd never find otherwise, especially more obscure or newly trending series. On the other, it feels ethically messy. The app monetizes through ads, I assume, while the actual translators and authors get nothing. As for how it works, it's simple enough for anyone to figure out in five minutes. You find a novel, add it to your library, and the chapters load like a basic ebook. There's often a community aspect too, with comment sections under each chapter where readers discuss. That can be fun, but also a source of spoilers. It's a tool born from a demand that official publishers sometimes fail to meet, for better or worse.
