Headway - Daily Micro Learning

Meermaals lidmaatschap stop gezet via app en website. Blijft echter 127 euro per jaar afschrijven via credit card…
Na opzeggen komt er geen enkele bevestiging via mail van je opzegging. Log je na een paar dagen weer in sta je gewoon weer genoteerd als lid en kun je weer voor een jaar betalen. Uiteindelijk geldklopperij van de bovenste plank.

The app offers a wide range of book summaries across different genres and is easy to navigate. I like the clean design and how quickly you can find and read or listen to summaries.
There is a lot of variety in content and the platform is clearly well developed and regularly updated. The summaries are concise and helpful for getting key insights from books in a short amount of time.
Customer support was also responsive and helpful when I had a question.
Overall a useful app for anyone who enjoys learning in a structured and time-efficient way.

I spend a good amount with their app and then I realized I placed wrong email. Tried to contact them to be able to use the app and they didn’t help or answered at all. Do not recommend

Reading one or two summaries a day feels engaging and motivates to grow further. Good app!

The speed changes per chapter.. super weird, and you cannot leave reviews of the books - why?! Also they only have 2 voices.. what?! And they charge for this.. if you ise AI, at least add more and good ones.They also change the covers of the books and they all have the same style.. it is unsettling, they dont look like the originals

Oszuści
Ta aplikacja to oszustwo, zalogować się ciężko żeby nie cofnąć subskrypcji! Niby jakieś streszczenia ale to są bzdury nic się z niej nie nauczyłam a wydałam 120 zł! Złodzieje!

Very difficult and misleading process to unsubscribe! It has cost me a lot of money. Not recommended!

I signed up for a one-month trial and ended up being charged not only for the subscription but also for three extra books I never requested — including 50 Best Reads, Sex Education, and Self Reflection.
When you contact customer service, they give the same scripted excuse every scammy app uses: “The option was there and you accepted it.” Completely misleading and feels like a setup to charge you for things you never agreed to.
Total month subscription costed me about 50eur

Not very happy with app interface, though to find interesting summaries. After one month, apparently the subscription costs went up from €10 to €32. Did not notice this at signup, very expensive. When wanting to end the subscription, you have to navigate through many annoying screens on a tough to find website. App has been very annoyingly growth hacked

Even though I love to read, to be able to listen to summaries of so many interesting books makes it so easy to access knowledge!

When you click continue after paying for the subscription, they automatically sign you up for additional services and upcharged. I was charged twice >50€ even though I only gave permission for a 20€ subscription. Horrible way of dealing with new customers.

The app is okay (with the discount), but the renewal process of the subscription is very silent, no communication at all, it just ping 130 bucks in your credit card without a single warning, and according to the platform, there’s nothing you can do about that. So make sure that you CANCEL it as soon as you subscribe, so in a year you can think if it worth to keep it or not

In der App findest du viele Zusammenfassungen von Büchern, die extrem unreflektiert sind und auch teilweise toxische Verhaltensweisen anpreisen. Die Texte sind wiederholend, einen echten Lerneffekt kann ich nicht erkennen. Auch typische male gaze Inhalte, die weder sozialen Hintergrund, Privilegien und systematische Benachteiligungen in Betracht ziehen. Ich habe mir mehr erhofft und bin tatsächlich extrem enttäuscht von der App

Boeken bieden meer context en zorgen er voor dat je het beter onthoud, maar Headway biedt een snel alternatief

I do have a active subscription. And this stupid app keeps sending me % gifts and asking me to purchase.. and each time I need to press restore purchase … and it takes long… also the headway app does not have many books. Many of the books I’m interested in are not there

Subscription does not give full access, there is a lot of upsale banners, they don’t want to give you good content, they want you to pay even more, than you have paid for subscription.

Just want the content - make the ‘wow, you’ve listened to 3 minutes..’ ‘well done you hit a streak’ type of notifications optional.

I tapped the “Cancel Subscription” button in the app weeks ago and was sure I had unsubscribed. But today, I was charged over €30, for an app I deleted and didn’t use.
Only after digging deeper I realized that unless you also fill out a feedback form (which is not clearly required), your cancellation doesn’t go through. This is deliberately confusing and manipulative, a textbook example of dark UX.
When I contacted support, they said their policy doesn’t include refunds.
Excuse me, how is it even acceptable to charge people through a misleading flow and then hide behind a no-refund policy?
This should not be legal. Disgusted. Not recommended to anyone.
