Don't fall for it! The 7 days free trial does not apply at all. I have to provide my "infographics" page by page. Initially, I thought this helped to refine the selection of books of my interests. Then, it required me to register an account, provide credit card details to proceed with payment only after the trial period ends. Yet, 4 transactions with 2 subscription fees (monthly and quarterly) were charged to my cc on the same day,non-refundable! Ridiculous! Recovery service is unsatisfactory.

It is a lot of text. Summaries are good, but sometimes you need to have pictures, sometimes you need to put the exercises or checklists that a particular book has. may not be all, but some of the key ones. References to some of the material can be provided. ex. there was one book which said we can take up many personality tests online... some links of reliable tried and tested ones can be provided. After seeing Philosophers Notes by Brian Johnson, this app falls short. video summaries help too.

I was being charged despite I canceled after my trial period. There is very wrong with this system. I ended up having to reach out to Google and there was nothing they could do. In the end, I have to reach out to your team on this. Pls, look into this seriously. The experience was very bad. Update: Support team replied purchase was made through Google Play. Refuse to pay back. This is a criminal act. I was billed for $124 after I canceled within 7 days trial. Totally out to cheat money.
