Headway: 15-Min Book Summaries Mod

Seaver Jackson

I'm hooked on Headway! it's hands down. The best audio book app on the market by leaps and bounds. I've learned so much over the past 3 weeks that have changed my life. I even purchased two books "Atomic Habits" & "The 80/20 Rule" because I wanted to read the full versions. definitely recommend to anyone looking to learn, you can also get a huge discount by purchasing at the end of the free trial.

Horrible experience. My first thought was I've been duped! I was drawn in by this campaign targeting women with an elaborate quiz and got a very shallow interface as most of the features were unavailable or locked. When trying to navigating the app, anything I clicked in efforts to open it was automatically charged - to my horror - as there was no warning! After that, I literally ran to my user account and cancelled everything in advance.

To properly assess this app, try a summary from a book you have recently read. I did that, and the results were underwhelming. Many of the key points that resonated the most with me weren't there, and in one part the summar completely misunderstood the author's point. Some are good, and others inspired me to read the full books. However, due to these problems - and the aggressive, sketchy subscription tactics - i'm downgrading my previous review. edit: downgrading again.

Typical subscription service that gets you in with a discount and then makes it as arduous as possible to cancel. Service definitely isn't worth the monthly fee and they try to do everything that can to make it difficult to cancel. They're not interested in providing good service, they're just hoping you don't go through the trouble of cancelling so they can keep taking your money.

No way to organize your library so any favorite summaries that you may have wanted to revisit gets lost in the clutter after a handful of content. In app Help & Support is pretty buggy and there's no way to report issues. So I doubt this app will improve much over time without them having a pulse on UX. There's even a rating system but you can't see any of the ratings you've given. This thing is so unpolished

A collection of generic self-help books, watered down overviews. I hated every single moment of the experience. 1. generic art style removes all personality 2. Content is generic useless overviews, not scientific or detailed. 3. Can't control audio positions while reading. Audio is too slow, and not pleasant. 4. Collection of books is just self-help books that all say the same things. 5. Way too expensive, and they trick you into paying upfront. 6. Copy of Duolingo nagging notifications
