Cannot open the app!
It won’t open. Keeps saying there’s an SSL error. I’ve tried every possible fix, but still nothing! None of the other 145 apps I have are having that issue, so it must be Athena. Bummer.
LOW VISION PEOPLE LEFT OUT!!!! DEVELOPER DISCRIMINATES AND DOES NOT RESPOND!
Update: DEVELOPER, WHY DON’T YOU RESPOND? FIX THIS APP SO VISUALLY IMPAIRED PEOPLE CAN USE IT! AS IT IS, IT DOES NOT WORK WITH VOICEOVER OR ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES!

Visually impaired book lover! Want to use Athena so much. Tried to use with VoiceOver. Could absolutely NOT use this app! Shameful, developer!

Can’t connect to the server
This app cannot connect to the server. Throws SSL error.
Can’t open it
I want to love this. I see lots of great titles about topics that interest me. But…
I get a message that says “The certificate for this server is invalid” when I try to open the app. Today is the last day of my free trial and I haven’t been able to use the app at all, so I cancelled. :(
Would love a second chance at the free trial if the app access can be fixed.

This app is awesome
Perfect bite sized book sumaries. I'm a hard-core Audible user, but Athena is much more reasonably priced. highly recommend giving it a try if you like Audible or podcasts.
Give it a try!
Great app to get caught up on all the books you wish you could read. The book summaries are well written and give you the main points of the book. I’m enjoying building my knowledge and learning new things. I started with the free trial and after that have upgraded to the annual Library Pass. It's a great value for the price given how many books I can read.

Great app!!
Love this app! Makes reading much easier!!
Great for discovering new books
Athena gives you the perfect feel for a book so you can decide to purchase or not. Reminds me Spark notes, but in app form!
Highly recommend
Great app to motivate you in the morning and help you wind down at night. Kinda like a cross between Coursera and Audible, but easier to use.
Great library of books and audiobooks
Athena offers the key insights from great books. It's super easy to use, reasonably priced, and has a growing library. I like being able to read along while simultaneously listening to the audiobook. It also lets me write my own takeaway that I can share with my friends and then revisit to help me remember my favorite parts. Super useful app!

LOVE IT!
I am a school counselor and always looking for tools to help my students and me. I found Athena browsing education apps and have found lots of good material on ADHD, depression, stress, anxiety, and other mental health conditions.
Big bang for the buck
Ok this is a bargain for anyone who loves to read books, listen to audiobooks or podcasts, or wants to learn. I've learned more in a few weeks than I did in college! Well worth the price!!!
Best book summary app
Highly recommend giving Athena a try. Great book selection and cool reading view. Haven’t tried the audio books, but can see they have them.
Great key insights from books!
Have been using Athena app for a while now and the content is great, fresh and easy to digest! The app has nice design and is easy to use, not to say their reading lists and curation of books which are really great. The book summaries are entertaining and insightful.
I really recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quick learning and a smart way to spend time 🙂!

Response from developer
Hey thanks, Luisa! We're glad to hear you're enjoying Athena and will pass on your great feedback to the team. Keep an eye out for more fresh content coming soon!!!
Won't let me access after I paid
I paid full price for this because I was interested. And now I can't get access to anything!!!! Rip off!!!
too slow
the app is too slow, i waited for a long time and couldn’t refresh.
.
Love the selection of books and the summaries give me all of the useful takeaways I need to know without having to read through the whole book.
Finally!
Love it! The best way to learn on a subject! Please add more and more stuff!
Really like the new interface!
The content is great as always, but the new interface is just perfect! For sure one of my favorite apps on my phone.
Great app for being informed!!
Love this! Revolver gives a quick overview of many nonfiction titles I’d love to find time to read, but don’t seem to get a chance to... also helps guide those I’d really like to get to sooner!
