### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-01-09*

Paid and it is not summarizing

**Developer response:** So sorry the app didn't summarize for you! I've just sent in an update to fix that problem and also lowered the subscription price. (v2.0.9) If you experience any other problem, please reach out to me at hello@robinkanatzar.com and I will fix it as soon as I can. Again, I apologize for your bad experience and hope you'll be willing to try the app again.

### 5/5 — Best Study Tool This Semester

*2025-12-24*

Helped summarize the textbook and study guides which allowed me to pass all my classes this semester!

### 1/5 — Subscription 🤮🤮🫩

*2025-04-20*

Where’s lifetime purchase?

### 5/5 — Good app

*2024-01-30*

Works pretty well for me, summaries are easy and only a lil bit to write

### 4/5 — Text

*2023-11-15*

I love the app. It’s makes my life and writing much easier. I do wish it had the capability of pasting text, not just bay summarizing with a picture.

### 1/5 — Smh

*2023-06-26*

0/8

### 2/5 — Only raw text and photos.

*2023-03-11*

Does not actually summarize websites as the graphics advertise. You must extract the relevant text from the website yourself and paste it into the app to summarize it.

It's pretty much the same as all the other summarizer apps in the App Store.

### 5/5 — Worth it

*2022-12-07*

Been absolutely loving this so far 🤩

### 1/5 — Absurdly expensive, only works with photos.

*2022-12-03*

84$/year and only a 3 day trial. Seems to be designed for use with photos only and cant even import text or an online article.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for reaching out! I am truly sorry to hear about your difficult experience with Simply. Users can import text or online articles by importing a picture via the “Photo” menu. Additionally, monthly subscriptions are available for users who aren’t interested in subscribing for a full year. If you have any further concerns or would like to get additional assistance, please email sam@getsimplyapp.com so we can better accommodate your needs! ~Sam

It’s a great app, works exactly as advertised
