Good voice of readers. Length is perfect for a quick learning session. Some summaries la k enough specific detail and feel vague. Overall great tool

It,s usefull but the tompic are pretty much always too similar. There's must be classics and new contemporary literature as well.

I tried for one thing just to tried
I tried for one thing just to tried, but I got more transactions, I tried to call and by email no answer went on line and said that account does not exist
So I don’t want to keep doing it. To me is a fraud

Overall OK, but they are predatory.
While the content is overall satisfactory, the initial sign up + bait clicking for add-ons (instant pay, no refund) are major breach of trust and reliability. Kindly refrain from doing such gimmicks, we do not welcome it.
25/5 - The team has reached out to refund on the upsell, glad to see that.
However I was also forced to replace my credit card due to unauthorized charging of $81.27 from Headway. This is getting more messy!

Uninteresting content
Very little content to make you understand the world better. Mostly self-improving stuff. Not very varied presentations, only recaps that seem AI-made

I want to OD and Headway has made it worse!
I'm absolutely lost in life right now.
Pain doesn't begin to cover what I'm going through.
Unemployed.
Wife hates me.
No purpose in life.
I did the stupid test from headway to find out what career would suit me. Thought I'd at least get something for free.
But noooo.
They force you to pay $2 for the results.
Then they upsell you several times.
Then they make the results almost impossible to find...after you've done another bullshit test.
I'm on the verge of topping myself and apps like this REALLY don't help.
And now I have to worry if they're gonna take more money off me because they're incapable of cancelling subscriptions properly.
Wankers!
