Talk about false advertising....
Saw an ad for this app on Instagram. Downloaded the app and started free trial. Very disappointed to learn that books displayed in the ad are not available on this app. There are actually very few books I recognized available on this app, maybe 7 at most. The perfect amount to read during my free trial, then go back to the apps that actually offer what they advertise.
Please don’t advertise books you don’t really offer.... it’s misleading.

Not satisfied
I was unable to listen to any of the books and that was the reason of downloading it.
small selection, hit or miss summaries, no support
the description says hundreds of books but i only see about 30-40
i signed up for the trial and it says i have full access but i still only see 30-40
i emailed support days ago to ask if i’m missing something and they haven’t replied
of the summaries i can view, they are very hit or miss in their quality ranging from decent to high school book report-like quality with errors and that sound like the summarizer only read the first chapter and then just makes general and vague statements to fill out the rest of the summary
a particularly frustrating part is when they state something like “tony robbins then lays out the 9 myths of investing” but the summary doesn’t tell me what they are, or “the author describes strategies to determine what desires are behind our habits” but doesn’t tell me what the strategies are, i’m supposed to be reading a summary not an ad for the book
i was excited to try the app and would happily pay the subscription fee if the summaries were better quality and the selection was larger, but as of now, i’m going to look for other book summary apps

Don’t waste your time
The app has hardly any books, most of which sound boring. Don’t even bother downloading it, it’s not worth the time.
Annoying app that shuts off on auto lock and when you switch to another app
Needs to be fixed.... would be ok if it worked in the background

Cancel Account
How do I cancel my account? It’s a difficult process and the account settings in the app don’t give you any options. I need to cancel immediately!!!
Terribly written summaries
I read a couple of “books” on this app and the grammar and wording are terrible, at best. In many cases, I had to read and reread paragraphs to try to decipher what the writer was trying to say. I think it would be in this company’s best interest to hire an editor who is a native English speaker (that is, if English speaking people are going to be your target market). I’m glad I’m still in my free trial - I won’t be paying for this app.

Excellent summaries!
Quick and well-made summaries of the main concepts of a book. Love having this app on the go.
Amazing tool!
Great tool for getting a sneak peak at what matters the most to you. Just enough to make your mouth water.
Good content, good app
Nice simple clean design. App works great. Decent library of books and the content is well put together.
