Why is it advertised as free or semi-free when you have to pay for everything? Use Sumreads instead!

I saw the app advertised as free unlike Blinkist, so I downloaded and filled the opening survey, and then it said I had to pay money to do anything. Not even one book was free. I could've tolerated a semi-free approach with limited selection, but this was nothing free. Was free it one point, but not now? If so, that's very rude. That's without getting into the low-quality AI summaries which would be tolerable if it was free, but since it isn't, I'm better off paying for the high-quality human-written summaries of Blinkist, or my current favorite, Uptime. Use the website Sumreads instead, actually free AI book summaries!
