I’ve found following authors to be one of the best ways to never miss their updates. When you open the app, simply search for the author’s name or tap their username from a story you’re reading. Once on their profile, you’ll see a 'Follow' button—click it, and boom, you’re all set! Their new works and updates will now appear in your feed.
I also recommend turning on notifications for your favorite creators. This way, you’ll get alerts whenever they post something new. It’s super handy if you’re obsessed with ongoing series like I am. Some authors even interact with followers through announcements or Q&A sessions, so following them can feel like joining a tight-knit fandom. Plus, Wattpad’s algorithm will start recommending similar writers, expanding your reading list effortlessly.
