  • Terrible customer service

    1st of all, they only email! Charged my account when I cancelled prior to being billed. Then they could not find my account under the email, so they closed ticket! Having to reach back and dispute the charge. All they have is an automated email. Not good.
  • Poor feedback response

    I have paid subscription and reported issue almost one month back using the feedback option of app. But there was no response from support and update about the reported issues. Today I reported two more bugs, if you care about users, please do respond.

    The book summaries are pathetic. Very disappointing. Waste of time and money.
  • Unusable now

    I need to use it when I’m out walking or at the gym. I used to be able to download the blinks ahead of time. But now, it just won’t do it. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the whole app. Updated it as soon as the versions come. But it still won’t download the blinks. It just says “downloading”, with the circle showing that it’s in progress, but nothin happens after that… for weeks. I’ve cancelled my subscription from renewing but was secretly hoping they’ll fix it. But I’ll have to use Headway or Imprint in some manner. The other absolutely painful aspect, but something I was willing to ignore and keep the app for - you lose ALL your “Saved” items in the library if you delete and reinstall the app. Even non-iOS developers know that such information can be saved in user’s iCloud or their own servers easily. It’s incomprehensible that a folks who make this app cant seem to get these things done correctly when the app has been in business for years now.
  • Billing

    Content is great. Unfortunately billing costs do not match advertised promo rates for Pro.
  • Is this a smart scam?

    I pay $99 per year. Now my profile says my subscription is just Basic when it was Premium. Instead of serving subscribers they just force them in obnoxious ways, to pay more. Extremely disappointing.
  • Worst Ripoff

    By 77T3
    Save the 10 minutes I spent to find out this is the worst ripoff on the App Store. Most everything is locked just to sell their in-app purchases. The free Chat GPT gives you better insights (despite its flaws) and doesn't charge you.
  • Too many ads of this app everywhere

    This app is killing Everytime I try to watch a video in YouTube this app's ad starts to play I can't take it anymore;-;

    If I find a topic and so thin of interest regarding such Don’t blink me off to one of your blinking suggestions PLEASE AND THANK YOU‼️ Otherwise this is a very awesome app, unfortunately being presently without a home and scrambling to survive I’m afraid even as inexpensive as it is offered it’s still just slightly beyond my budget. Though I do love the feeling of so much knowledge available at my fingertips to absorb, of course providing I’m able to maintain my battery level on my cell phone enough to manage my marathon listening I’m encountering this moment into just prior to my free week trial period running out on me. I’m already feeling motivated enough to find some way to get this subscription for the year ahead Amen thanks blink blank blinkety blink Peace now back to listening Okay SO IM NOTICING YOUR APP IS NOT ALLOWING ME TO TAP THE AMOUNT OF STARS I WANT TO GIVE YOU, BUT ARE ONLY ALLOWING FOR A FIVE STAR REVIEW, SO YOUR 4 STARS JUST FELL TO 3 stars honestly
  • Super lame sales gimmicks!

    So I get a Black Friday coupon. I bite at the sale price. So I spend the money for the regular package, despite seeing another add for the other pro packages. Then I spend the time to download the app, set up an account, share preferred titles, interests etc. Then I get another add to upgrade, right after paying and setting up. Then, get this, they send me my selected “suggested” books, and on the first page, they ALL are only available if I bought the upgraded package. Wowsers! I feel like I just got bamboozeled. I want my money back, and my time. I think I just fell for a 1980’s bait-and-switch. Because who wants to read the books that are not on the top of the recommended list?! Are you kidding me 😜. Good job team. I’m sure a lot of people fall for this. But they probably don’t feel great about it.
