  • Not what I expected

    I do a lot of driving and podcast-listening and love using the time to learn new things. Sick of all the ads, so bought a Blinkist subscription after seeing all the effusive reviews. The book summaries are okay, but I was expecting a more intellectual experience. The recap at the end is infuriatingly simplistic, “today we learned that x is important..” If you’re an entrepreneur or want to be a great leader, perhaps you’ll love the content, but I don’t need “blinks” to teach me mindfulness or how to enjoy life. I should probably go to audiobooks and listen to great works. I want in-depth history and economics, real learning, not skipping across the surface. My expectations were probably too great for an app offering blinks. In fairness, if you want your info pre-chewed, you’ll probably like this a lot.

    App works well enough and the library is good and growing, however, the app’s demand for uninterrupted internet connectivity is extremely obnoxious.
  • Subscription

    When you sign up they say they will send you an email before your free trial is up. They don’t. I usually put in a reminder to cancel a free subscription so I don’t forget but I didn’t because they SAID they send an email. And I just got charged $148 for a year. I enjoyed the app but will not be purchasing again.

    Blinkist shuts me out of an incompleted book. It is constantly asking for more money everyday after I have already given a large sum. They misrepresent what you pay for in your membership.
  • Too expensive

    App is way too expensive but is very good. I enjoy listening to the book summaries on my way to work but I will never pay an annual fee of $100. Even the monthly fee seemed outrageous. Make it a one-time price or send me a coupon!
  • Takes the joy out of reading

    I adore reading and loved the idea of speeding up my ability to read a wide range of books - but the summaries are bland and I miss the personality of the actual authors. You get no sense of the author’s voice, and any humor is lost. I like the idea but personally find it dull and doesn’t work for my learning style.
  • Reader for the best boost summary to read

    I’ve finally loved reading with my life change. And then, that was an amazing analysis significant to work independently to save my job employee having fun and excitement! And then anyway, it’s okay to continue the new book with upcoming events about the different books together between “The Brain Everything You Need to Know by New Scientist”, “12 Universal Skills The The Beginner’s Guide To a Successful Work Life by Peter Scheele and Nina Bech- Andersen”, and “The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn” for the special approve this information to the public request related. Thank you!
