  • Valuable for professional development

    I have found it valuable to listen to blinks of books that I don’t have enough time to read as many as I like. I also have found it useful for knowing what books I want to buy and dive into deeper.
  • Excellent !!

    Blinkist help me to have brief understanding of the books, so I could go deeper reading the full book or not. For me it has been an investment that more than pays off every day.
  • Such a great way to boost your insights.

    Blinkist has been one of the greatest tools and finding the nuggets hidden within the short blinks has enabled me to digest the information on walks, before/on quick meditations, or on a quick break at work. Such an invaluable tool! Thank you again for all of the information you make available. I had a trial and within the full app, there are so many selections from so many genres. I still utilize the free blink a day daily. My challenge to you is for a week to utilize the free blink of a day to meditate on what it was on to help retain the information received then take some quick notes or bullet points to remind you of the golden nuggets, book title, and name. Do this for a week in any chosen area that you want to develop in and do an experiment with it all. I strongly believe you will be hooked and strongly anticipate exploring the full app. Thank you again for all that you do there on the Blinkist Team! It is deeply appreciated! Koley Keller

    There are a few books I was looking for that weren’t there, but the big thing that pushed me away is that the app pauses and restarts the audio while I’m driving.
  • I didn’t know I needed this so much!

    I love being able to scan titles that perk my interest without having to invest the money and time to go hunt the book down. I obtain some of the books however, it is nice to have the overview especially if it’s material you need to present. I am definitely using the app more than I thought I would.
  • Another app to charge you

    As usual - a free trial and then significant money charged to you, likely with little recourse. If you want to be smart, go to the library and start reading, stay up on current. For opinions based on information in facts. I find it interesting that they’re most stellar review says it’s a free app, maybe two years ago it was. Save your money.

    I feel 50% of app done perfect We always find our selves listening but did I take in the information and concepts Can there be a test section or quiz section. That test the main concepts and ideas I have just heard and a good review Also subconsciously make u focus more if u know that coming and u get a simple 5 star rating if u listen and answer everything correct
  • Not the road to wisdom

    Thesesummaries go down easy but if you think you can learn a book in a 15 minute summary, you’re sadly mistaken. It’s something of an insult to nonfiction and especially to literature. Especially considering half the titles are self-help and business. A waste of time.
  • Too shallow

    Almost never has enough depth to be useful or interesting.
