This app gave me the opportunity to know a variety of titles that I have never heard about before. Also, gave me the chance to understand why some books were so famous. They have a wide range of titles and certainly, everyone will find what they are looking for on it.

Pros:

It summarises the books I want to know about and if I want to know more deeply, I can acquire it later. Easy interface and great titles.

Cons:

Nothing

Thanks a lot for the review Rachel! We're really glad to know that you're having a good experience ;) #keepReading #keepLearning

In France is 8.90 euros. A reasonable price.

Pros:

It's really efficient and user friendly. At the end of the book, you know if you want to get deeper or not.

Cons:

The free trial period is too short. You can not get the habit to use before be asked to pay it.

Thanks a lot for the review and feedback Pedro, that's awesome to hear! Thinking about that reading habit part of things, we now have free and unlimited reading, and the Premium account gives access to the audios. I hope you like it ;) #keepReading #keepLearning

12 min app is the best mobile learning app ever. Stop wasting your time on uselless apps and use it to upgrade yourself. It‘s worth it.

Pros:

12 Min’s books summaries are easy to digest and deep enough to learn something from it. No need to rush, you can listen anywhere and anytime

Cons:

Don’t substitute the book for a summary. Use it to choose the best ones and read them later or recapitulate the better ones in 12min

Matheus Guerra Costa
Thanks a lot for the review and feedback Henrique, that's awesome to hear! We know that we can't compete with the full book, and we actually don't want that. We want people to read more of them, using 12min to prioritise their readings :) #keepReading #keepLearning

Love the app and how fast they populate the library with new content.

Pros:

Great content, awesome library and a sweet price!

Cons:

Could be better on Android.

Matheus Guerra Costa
Thanks a lot for the review and feedback Manoel, that's awesome to hear! We're working very very hard to improve our usability, specially on Android. In the past few months we improved it A LOT, but we know there's still a lot to do. We're updating the app weekly to improve the user experience and app usability. :) #keepReading #keepLearning

Hope we can have English version of books. Good to practice a second language using same app.

Pros:

Excellent to have a good idea about the book without having to buy it and then figure out that it doesn't worthwhile.

Cons:

Need to improve the UX.

Matheus Guerra Costa
Thanks a lot for the review Leandro! Now we do have summaries no only in English, but also Spanish and Hindi. About the UX, we're working hard and updating the app weekly to improve everything we can #keepReading #keepLearning
