HOW WE DO IT
All of our writers are bookworms and bibliophiles. Hence, they don’t mind reading the books several times while turning them into book summaries. Moreover, they are well versed in breaking down multifaceted chronicles and complex concepts in an easily digestible manner, at the same time entirely relevant to the original book, and to your personal growth and professional development!
Each book summary or microbook as we like to call it, is written in a way that they can be read and listened to entirely independently of the book they summarize.
In other words, they are not just a haphazard list of key insights and highlights, but meaningful, self-sufficient accounts connecting the ideas in question in engrossing narratives by way of arguments, anecdotes and original quotes.

Too many subscription offer

ababab9911 on

United Kingdom

They offer free one book every day but while you are reading and listening subscription page constantly comes and it disturbs your attention. You can not offer a free daily book but if you do it let people read it free.

Should be a little more updated with new reading options

Does not work offline

What is the point of being able to download books if the app doesn’t work when you’re offline / in airplane mode?

For reading lovers

I am a mum of 3 and I love reading but sometimes time is not available! Then I prefer to listen 12 minutes before my kids wake up. When I find a book I trashing I go ahead and buy it to read it as a whole. Thank you for this opportunity.

Does not work on iPad Pro M1

The app works perfectly on my iPhone 11 but doesn’t not load on the iPad Pro 12.8 M1. I uninstalled then reinstalled and it’s working again.

Love this app. 5 stars.

High cost of entry = high expectations

Rich77 on

United Kingdom

I’m not used to having to commit nearly £50 to an app but after the initial trial I felt the content was worth it for 12 months access. However the apps themselves need more work: 1) the app doesn’t use the native audio player in iOS so you can’t use AirPlay 2 or any control of content (pause, skip 15 seconds from control centre etc) other than to launch the app and control from there. 2) the iPad app is portrait only so no landscape option or split screen. Even Apple has now changed the boot up screen to rotate the Apple logo to landscape, apps like this shouldn’t be considered to have an iPad app if it’s portrait only in 2021. Again the content is as good as I’d expect but for asking for nearly £50 after a 3 day trial I’d expect the apps software to be up to scratch in 2021. I’ll happily update the score and review if/when the above things are resolved.

Amazing

The collection the app is offering is wonderful! A free book everyday allows you to incept new ideas everyday! Thank you for wonderful work!

Quality of language lets it down

cwlindner94 on

United Kingdom

I really wanted to like this app for the number and variety of books on offer. Sadly the quality of language lets it down. Often the summaries sound like bad translations from another language or are possibly written by a non-native speaker of English. The reading is often flat and monotonous with insufficient pauses to help you listen actively, probably because of the goal to keep within 12 minutes.
