Not a good app
Thisiscaseywriting
Blinks will continue playing but audio stops after EVERY blink. Super annoying. Deleting the app after the free trial. Not worth the money they’re asking for with all the bugs I’ve already experienced in these seven days.
My absolute #1 go-to app for education and inspiration

Indispensable for daily commutes, house-cleaning chores, wind-down time before sleep and many, many other occasions. I tried the free version and loved it, so I decided to go premium and now there is no going back. Apart from the value of the Blinks themselves, I am especially captivated by the calm, reassuring voices of the narrators, such as Amanda Marr and Master York (hope I got their names right). The premium subscription is a bit pricey in my opinion, and this keeps me from giving away more of them as gifts, as I’ve already done with a son and a good friend. It seems to me that it would be both in Blinkist’s best interests and ours that gift subscriptions be cheaper, since this would help build the listener community faster and make sure we keep getting the quality app and content. It would also be nice that the available language options widen in the future, to include Spanish (in my case), so then I could recommend Blinkist to even more people.
Do not sign up for 7 day “Free trial “

I signed up for the 7 day free trial, and set a reminder to cancel after 6.5 days. Low and behold blinkist had already charged me for a whole year. Blinkist also has a “request refund” link that does not work. Now I have to spend who knows how long looking for an email or phone number for this company. Very inconvenient.
Audible Cliff notes

I really enjoyed this as a precursor before I commit to listening to a book on audible or reading a book. Short summaries that I feel like capture the essence of the book and give me an insight to either remember better books I have read in the past or prepare me for Books I plan to be in the future.
Good Service; App could be better

Please, please move all the finished episodes to the bottom of the page. Also, add some literature.
Far too right leaning.

I would have kept this if there was a balanced offering, but there is far too much right leaning rhetoric fouling up the selections. This is not an app for thinking people.
Issues with CarPlay

When a call comes in it the app will freeze. Need to exit out and start over to get it to play again.
Great Short Breakdowns

Love how it breakdown the books and their information into short, digestible blinks.
