Description

Listen, read or watch bite-sized summaries of the world’s best books, podcasts, documentaries and courses. Our award-winning app is easy growth, fun learning, and free!

Designed by experts and scientifically proven to help you learn, Uptime is an exciting way for you to spend 5 minutes immersing yourself in content that will help turn you into the smartest person in the room. Whether it’s meditation, politics, or career advice you’re after, our Hacks can have you feeling confident and well-informed across any area of your life.

WHY UPTIME?
• It’s effortlessly engaging. Our 5-minute summaries (which we call Hacks) are easy to understand, quick to get through, and cover every topic imaginable.

• We save you time. Uptime finds the world’s top non-fiction books, podcast episodes, documentaries, and online courses, and summarizes them so you can take away all the key information in a fraction of the time.

• You choose what works for you. Our content is available as text to read, audio to listen to, or as visual stories you can tap through. Whether you’re sitting down to concentrate or out on the go, Uptime is designed to suit your needs.

• We’re built for learning. Designed by experts, Uptime has a science-based methodology that’s proven to foster long-term information retention.

• We help you take action. We don’t just leave you to consume facts. Our Insights in Action provide you with tips and tricks that you can implement in your everyday life.

• Uptime helps you reach your goals. Watch your streak go up and see how many hours you’ve saved — a book might take hours, but a Hack only needs 5 minutes.

• You can bank the best bits for later. Save your favorite quotes, insights, and actions as Sparks to refer back to, and even categorize them into Boards to share with your friends.

• Our content is one of a kind. Many of our Hacks are written by the creators themselves, not only guaranteeing authenticity but offering unique insight you can’t get anywhere else.

• We guarantee quality. We curate only the top creators – with New York Times best sellers, the latest Netflix documentaries, top-rated Apple and Spotify podcasts, and courses from the world’s most prestigious universities.

Quick Knowledge: So I’m Always Learning!

Perfect selection of books with concise and comprehensive summaries and notes. Sometimes I want to read a book, but I’m insure whether the content is worth the read. Uptime saves me the trouble of researching books endlessly only to never end up reading them. Now when a book quote or summary sparks my brain, I’m excited to dive in and learn more. Love the app!

Developer Response ,

Hey, awesome review and feedback thank you. 🙏 It's so wonderful to hear you're learning.

Insane.

Hello. I just downloaded this app and I’m already obsessed with it. In my free time, I usually waste it on tik tok or social platform. Now, I use it on this app where I can learn more about the economy and where my time is used in a good way.

I am a person who does 2 hours of travel without internet everyday. The fact that you can download the books/courses to read them offline is extremely awesome. Thank you for making this app. You deserve this message.

Developer Response ,

What a fabulous review thank you CedrickBedard. 🤗 That's precisely why Uptime exists to get people away from mind-numbing scrolling into something more enlightening.

Terrible Programs

The book selection is not for general. It is very politically woke agenda. It might works for Americans but the rest of the world we are just laughing at how self destructive America is. I wish I can give -5 stars rating.

Developer Response ,

Hi Cityfarm girl, we have over 3,000 Hacks and 18 categories ranging from Personal Growth, Health and Fitness, Business and Technology and the Future, to name a few. Were you looking for a specific title? If so, I would happily add your request to our Hack list. 🤓
