Ratings and reviews

May have finally stumbled upon a true 💎 for self-help junkies with ADHD like myself! I cannot recall the last sentence of any of the myriad of books I've purchased... because I never finish them. Finished my first book summary and immediately purchased the app! This is an app I see myself actually using, not just dismissing yet another daily reminder to open it! Looking forward to more reading, listening and growth!

I wanted to try the app out to see if it's for me. I knew I couldn't commit to paying a full year right up front. I immediately canceled the free trial to avoid a charge, so I could go back to review the other options available. Today's the last day of my free trial. I was notified of a payment declined from Google. Apparently Headway was still listed in the subscriptions on Google, despite me having canceled in the app already. I canceled there and it said it didn't exist. Check your Google.

These are basically quick AI summaries of books. There may be a few helpful points here and there, but rarely is enough information on a topic given to make it useful. Definitely not worth the price and the billing practice are questionable. I just noticed I was billed twice on the same date for my first month, and they just billed me again even though I only signed up for 1 month.
