Excellent app. Cheapest lifetime license of any book summary app

Catalogue of books is lesser than the top summary apps like blinkist but developers are adding more content every month. And most of the best sellers are already added.

Pricing is the USP here. You will not find a cheaper license than this app anywhere in the store. The biggest catch is that its a LIFETIME license for less than the annual plans of other apps.

The summary qualities are good enough but could be improved and the developers have promised to do so.

App is seamless and no issues here

Overall, I am very satisfied with the service and highly recommend to go for the lifetime license as its giving you the best value for the money.

For the developers, thank you for not being greedy and providing us such quality content at such price for a lifetime license.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the detailed 5-star review! Positive reviews like yours will help us grow and improve StoryShots for you.

We add new books regularly and focus on bestselling books. We're focused on quality rather than quantity when we choose books. We also prioritize books that our premium supporters vote up using the "Vote for new books" feature inside the app.

If there are specific books whose content needs improvement, feel free to let us know by contacting our support so that we can prioritize them.

We're a bootstrapping startup on a social impact mission to make the key ideas of these books accessible to EVERYONE. We reinvest all our revenue back into improving StoryShots. So, please spread the word to help us grow and contact our support if you have any other feedback. We'd love to hear from you!

This app converts you as an bookworm

Very very simple and attractive UI and the content is next level. Infographic and mind maps are so useful. Rather than carrying a physical book just having a premium membership of this app will save us a lot of time.

Developer Response ,

Thanks a ton for your supportive, 5-star review, ahaspace! Reviews like yours help us grow and improve the app for everyone! We'll keep on adding more mind maps and infographics. If you have any other thoughts or feedback, please don't hesitate to contact our support at support@getstoryshots.com.

Good books on self help

I always want to stay positive and motivated and have my life goals set. This app provides a series of all best selling books with their summaries and audio books as well.

I have got the lifetime plan and this is worth every penny.
