TL;DR: For a limited time, you can get a Headway Premium lifetime subscription on sale for $39.99 (reg. $299.95).


If your ‘to be read’ (TBR) list keeps growing faster than your free time, Headway might be your new favorite app. It turns best-selling books into quick, engaging summaries you can finish in minutes. And right now, you can snag lifetime access at the lowest price we’ve ever seen.

Since you only have to pay once and not every month, you can enjoy the app at a relaxed pace. No need to feel like you’re ‘wasting money’ if you take a day away.

Inside the Headway app, you’ll find summaries of titles in productivity, business, self-improvement, psychology, and more. You can also opt for the audio option if you’d rather listen to them while commuting or cleaning up around the house.

The app also includes personalized learning paths and spaced repetition tools, which can be useful if you’re trying to build new habits or retain key concepts from books.

This kind of reading isn’t for everyone — it won’t replace the depth of a full book or the joy of leisurely reading. But if your TBR list is longer than your calendar allows, or you’re looking for a way to sample a book before committing, it could be a time-saver.

And while there are other book summary apps out there, many charge ongoing monthly fees or limit content without a subscription. With Headway, you’re getting full access for life, for less than what most platforms charge in a single year.

Get your Headway lifetime subscription now while it’s still $39.99 (reg. $299.99). No coupon is needed to get this price.
