Ratings and reviews

Complete scam. I tried to install the app but the app never installed properly and wouldn't even open. I didn't think anything of it until I was charged $42 for a 3 month subscription. Went online to cancel and was magically offered a year subscription for the low cost of 14.99. What they don't tell you until you click accept is that it's after the current billing cycle so in summary I paid over $42 for an app that I've never once opened. Steer clear of these scammers

The app itself is ok not bad. If you are into self-help books and don't want to buy and read full books then this is good, you get a summary of the book. The one star is for their scammy practices. Once you buy a subscription and open the app, a new subscription offer keeps popping. I fell for that and bought both monthly and quarterly. Any honest business will refund one when contacted but they will not, as this is their business practice.

This app is a great concept. Summarizing self-improvement/development books into digestible key points is very useful. Unfortunately, my experience was soured immediately when I was wrongly charged 3 times after paying once for a 1 month subscription. I contacted headway customer support and they corrected this error, but it was very frustrating. Headway is set up deceptively in that as soon as you download it, pop-ups appear that don't indicating you paid for them until AFTER you click.
