Text Summary is an app built for people who want to get through information faster. Instead of reading full books, long documents, articles, or pages of text, Text Summary helps you extract what actually matters and presents it in clear, easy-to-digest formats. Whether you are working, researching, studying, or just trying to stay informed, Text Summary helps you cut through the noise and understand content in minutes instead of hours. You can summarize content from many different sources: • Books and written material • PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, EPUB, ODT, and TXT files • Web pages and long online articles • Photos and scanned documents • YouTube video links • Typed text or pasted text You can type directly in the app, paste text from anywhere, import files, open links, or simply take a photo of a page or printed text using your camera. Text Summary recognizes the content and turns it into structured summaries automatically. Text Summary is flexible by design. You decide how the information should be explained and how you want to work with it, depending on how much detail you need and what you plan to do next. Available summary and content formats include: • Extract summary • Highlighted key points • Bullet points • Abstract overview • Paraphrase • Rewrite • Keywords • Translation • Quiz • Flashcards • Concept map • My notes • Chat with your text or summary Quizzes and flashcards are automatically generated from your own text or summary, allowing you to quickly test your understanding and reinforce key ideas without rereading everything. With My notes, you can write, edit, and save your own notes directly inside the app. Use it to keep personal thoughts, add context, rewrite ideas in your own words, or store important takeaways for later. Your notes stay available so you can return to them anytime. The chat feature lets you interact directly with your content. You can ask questions about your text or summary, clarify specific sections, explore ideas, or dive deeper into topics without leaving the app. This allows you to actively work with information instead of passively reading it. Text Summary also includes a curated catalog of popular book summaries. These summaries are designed to help you understand key ideas, themes, and structure, making them useful before reading a book, after reading it, or when you want a clearer overview to decide what to explore next. How it works: Type or paste text, add a link, import files, or take photos of pages with your camera. Choose the summary format you want and get a clear, structured result in seconds. You can switch formats, refine outputs, save notes, or explore the content further using chat. Additional features: • Adjustable summary length • Text-to-speech with automatic language detection • Share summaries or export them as PDF • Multi-language support • Works with very long texts and large documents • Easy sharing from other apps directly into Text Summary Some advanced features, such as audio and video summarization, are available with an active subscription. Text Summary is made for busy people who don’t want to waste time reading everything. It helps you stay informed, move faster, and focus on what’s important without overload. You can start with daily free summaries. A subscription unlocks unlimited usage, faster processing, advanced formats, and an ad-free experience.
