TL;DR: Headway helps you learn the key points from major books in minutes, and a lifetime subscription is now only $40.
Reading takes time, and not everyone has room in the calendar for that kind of investment. If you want to get through your non-fiction to-be-read list without losing all that time, try Headway. Headway Premium turns popular non-fiction books into quick summaries you can read in just 15 minutes, and lifetime access is now only $39.99 (reg. $299.95), but that won’t last much longer.
Headway gives you curated access to summaries of over 2,000 nonfiction titles, available in both text and audio. Topics range from productivity and leadership to health, psychology, and personal finance. New summaries are added regularly, and the lifetime subscription unlocks the full library without ongoing fees.
The app emphasizes active learning. Users can follow personalized self-growth plans, take quizzes, highlight insights, and turn key points into flashcards. A spaced repetition system helps reinforce memory, while offline downloads allow learning without an internet connection. Audio summaries make it easy to listen during commutes or workouts.
Headway also includes gamified elements like streak tracking, progress monitoring, and interactive video role-plays that simulate real-world situations. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, with curated collections based on individual goals.
