So I've noticed that the latest Wattpad app update comes with a new feature. There's a new Wattys identification tab for books that have won before. It can be found right under the book's votes. While I think it's a brilliant idea, I feel it would've been more useful if it was tailored to the creators, like something to verify that this person is an official Wattpad Creator. I'm saying this because I've come across profiles/users who claim to be Wattpad Creators, but their page activities are questionable. For example: I'm pretty sure Wattpad Creators don't partake in r4r and v4v. Being invited into the Creators program, means your content attracts a huge number of engaged readers. So if you're calling yourself a creator, yet you're trading votes & reads then you're not one. Which is why I think Wattpad should really find a way to verify Creators, and not books that have won a Watty before. The Wattys already have a dedicated profile that has all the winning books in their reading list. Plus they also have the sticker, so... there's no need for the extra verification. This is just my honest opinion, though I highly doubt if it'll change anything XD. Just wanted to put it out there.

Actually the Creators are not invited in by engaged readers anymore. Thus not about quality of work. It’s based on how often you post new content. I feel like they should showcase creators more…but some creators work…is questionable. I offered to critique some chapters and….it was barely legible, and they were Creators.
