| 2024-11-03 |  | | On the upside, it's free and have lots of helpful book summaries that really help someone to learn and apply both practical and philosophical knowledge in life. However,upon opening chapter 4 of Bored and Brilliant, it crashes and freezes the phone right after the narrator says, "Empathy levels plummeted." There's a typo where the next words "evenif" don't have a space in between which might be causing the issue. I had to delete all downloaded content to fix the issue. Hope you can resolve this. |
| 2024-08-29 |  | | Purchased Premium services but app is still on Basic and doesn't allow any of the Premium features. The ads don't stop either. Any email through app or any attempt to contact seems futile. Till date no response from the team. |
| 2024-04-17 |  | | I paid for lifetime, and it does not register in my account. There are areas of the software that does not work. Cannot email support, on top of that. I tried reinstalling software to no success. I have Android, the funny thing is the free version worked fine. Now I paid, and I still have the free version. There are definitely several sofware glitches. |
| 2024-02-18 |  | | I love the value this provides but not the app itself. The layout & UI is very good & simple, but it is not optimized for my new Galaxy S24 Ultra. App lags extremely when scrolling, sometimes uses a lot of battery and dark mode is not available in free version (which is fair enough tbh). Other than that, I love the value this app provides. Its FREE!! High Quality audio with the ability to listen offline. A wide variety of books & great summaries. I thank the developers very much. A+++ |
| 2023-08-06 |  | | Book summaries and the narrator(Alex Smith's Voice) are amazing 👏 and that too for free, just unbelievable. The app needs to be worked on, laggy and irresponsive some times, also looking for more books and categorizing options. Thanks. |
| 2023-05-31 |  | | Good idea of the app, however the hold up and down doesn't work at the home screen, sideways workbfine, click on view all I can scrow up and down but only on that category of books. I have an android phone Samsung A71. |
| 2022-12-19 |  | | I don't feel like I get real solution after listening to a short summary. Somehow the essential stuff is not inside. Moreover, when I read a book the next day it's makred as unfinished,so after a while I don't know which book I have already finished. It is really disturbing, please correct it! |
| 2022-11-06 |  | | Don't buy the premium features, as you won't be able to get rid of the ads. It you break or loose your phone you are not going to be able to reset purchases. In addition the developer also never replies to the requests, you better off watching the summaries on YouTube where you not going to get charged |
| 2022-10-22 |  | | Hello QuickRead, This app will be great if it can be made to play on the background of the screen. If not, then there's no value better than staying on YouTube. Since this is audio, why should it require my screen to stay active. 🤔 |
| 2022-09-16 |  | | Autoplay not working on Samsung S22 device. I have reported months ago since version 2.0.6.268. Until now version 2.0.7.270, it hasn't fixed. I have to manually press play every chaper. It's very disruptive, and inconvenient at the same time. Hope they fix it soon, so I can come back to use the app. |
