Thank you guys for a wonderful app, I really enjoy it. BUT the old format of summaries was way better. It explained books in a more structured, organized way. Now, with Notebook LM podcast, I feel like with each book I take away less than I used to. The AI talks non-stop, sometimes their explanations aren't clear enough, the examples they give might be confusing and unnatural for a human to conceive. I vote for the old format. EDIT: I changed it from 2 stars to 5. You deserve it anyway ❤️‍🔥

I am completely satisfied by this app. It is one of the best app for reading books in shorts time . Also the best part is that you get the written format along with the audio . And it's a great way to improve your vocabulary if you see a new word simply long press it and define pop up appears ...the induction of Wikipedia is fantastic. I absolutely love storyshots.♥️

I like this app. Just interface could be modern. Example when we give feedback or go out of app interface there is no way to go back....have to close the app and open again. Also there is no way save book in favorite in main screen. Overall I like it.
