I purchased an annual subscription but accidentally clicked on an add-on and was charged for an additional monthly subscription. After receiving the confirmation email I realized the error and tried to cancel / get a refund immediately. I was able to cancel but they still charged me and were refusing to refund. Update: after emailing I was able to get the refund. Their customer service response was prompt. The issue resolved in 24h. I will still try using it. Hopefully the effort is worth it!

I appreciate my ability to acquire knowledge efficiently. I find pleasure in listening to audiobooks, taking notes, setting goals, and diligently working toward them. I previously struggled with maintaining focus to complete entire books, but this method appears to be an excellent solution, freeing up my time while allowing for thorough comprehension and the extraction of key learnings. Thus far, it has been very successful.

Aside prompting you to pay the renewal of your annual membership two seconds after you just paid and every single time you open the app (this is a terrible money grabbing move), the concept of this app is not as good as it seems. Yes, it gives you a 15 mins summary of a book. No, you're not learning. I tried listening to books I've read in the past, and while the content is there, they missed out a lot. This app does not increase your knowledge, it increases your ego. Buy a book instead.
