About Headway
Fifteen-minute book summaries and habit-building nudges are Headway's pitch — it's a self-improvement app that compresses nonfiction books into audio and text summaries meant to be worked through in short daily sessions. The idea is momentum: small chunks of learning instead of committing to whole books.
Refunds here are entirely out of Headway's hands. If you subscribed through the App Store or Google Play, any refund request goes to Apple or Google directly, not to Headway's support team. That's standard for app-store subscriptions, but worth knowing before you assume canceling equals getting your money back — canceling just stops future charges, nothing more.
