Ratings and reviews

It's timely and financially efficient, one can read up to 14 books a day that may cost up to 200$ in less than 6 hours with only 8$ a month. However, I am a kind of a person who feels an achievement in finishing a whole book, so this concise form isn't for me.One thing though, I wish the downloaded books would be played like a playlist, pulling up while driving(on commute) to play the next book isn't ideal. Unfortunately, I'll unsubscribe and delete because I can't pay for monthly subscription.

If I could give a zero, I would. I saw an ad for this app and it gave the impression that it was free with an option to purchase for more. The truth is, the app is not free. You can absolutely get a free seven day trial for setting up a new account, but after that you have to subscribe to access virtually anything. While I appreciate the appeal of this app, I am not paying for you to paraphrase a book for me. The "value" created by this app is overshadowed by the cost. Uninstalled immediately.

I think this app serves a purpose but it's not for everyone. People who are not into reading books and wants things straight to the point then this is a great app and worth the 7.99/a month. They don't have much now but I like the variety of categories it had from politics to finance. They take a lot of popular books and defluff them. However I do like reading books and reading the condensed version takes away the author's personality and makes it harder to retain info (at least for me).

What’s new
