## What is SummaRead?

This note-taking app guides you in writing thoughtful summaries of non-fiction books to maximise the value you get from them.

Avid non-fiction readers are often faced with one of two problems - they either forget what they read or they try to retain too many details. SummaRead tackles both of these problems by providing a clean, minimalistic note-taking framework that will help you focus on the key points of books and make them relevant to you.

Key features include:

• a note template, specifically catered for non-fiction books, which will encourage you to focus on the books’ key themes and actionable takeaways while reading;
• a structured, clean UI that makes it a pleasure to revisit your notes;
• synching your notes across all your Apple devices; and
• a home screen widget for periodic reminders of the key takeaways from your books.
