Horrible experience.
I was keen to start using Snapreads. Unfortunately, after my subscription began, I couldn’t actually read anything. Every time I tried to do so, I was told to subscribe. When I tried to re subscribe, I was sent to another page that told me I was “already subscribed.” It gave me the option to “manage” my subscription, which I chose and then the app froze up. I sent an email to the support address and received a message in return, several days later, that asked me for the operating system, the version of snapreads I was using and the device I was using. I replied, and didn’t receive a return message. Did this whole process again, to include the email to support and still have had no response. I would advise you to avoid purchasing the subscription. $89.00 down the tube and no response from support. Bad deal.

Missing Books
They still false advertise on which books they have.
Not worth it
I paid for a one month subscription and it wouldn’t let me read any articles. I let them know, provided the information they asked for and they never responded, not even about a refund for not being able to access. If the app works for you, fine, you got lucky... but if not, I guess they take the money and run.

Makes me feel productive!
Great summaries of a lot of non-fiction books I’ve heard a lot about but never dedicated the time to reading. I’m enjoying the audiobook versions as well when I’m outside or in the car.
No Audio output
Gave this app a shot and the audio part of listening to books does not work on iOS 13.3
Free plan hidden & can’t play while doing other things
Like Blinkist this app offers great book summaries. I don’t know if the authors get paid ornot. On boarding is a pain. Hate killing battery life by having to keep app active to listen. Should play audio like other apps in the background.
Bad app evever
I cancel my subscription on the first day of free week trial. They still charged and stole my money. Although they charged me £ 13.99 for a month, I cannot read or listen any summaries. I’m really annoyed. Don’t download this app. This app is terrible.
Great app!
Just discovered this app and I'm really liking it. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking for an app like this. Easy to use.
Stay Away!
Horrible app at an outrageous price. Limited options but even worse there’s no way to access my account! Can’t even get a refund for an app that’s not working!
Cannot listen while phone is locked
When your screen times out...the audio stops. This is a huge flaw. Will not be subscribing because of this.
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.
