Blinkist: ملخصات يومية

I can’t believe an app like this exists. It changed my life completely thank you Blinkist.

I subscribed for a one year PRO subscription with AED 499.9, and the app doesn’t open any book and all the good books require upgrade which I can’t make at the moment and there is no call center to understand or help me sort this problem. What the heck !!!

I’ve been using this app for seven years and it’s one of the finest app if you want to have a quick read of a book summary. I usually use the reading option or if I am too busy to read then I will select audio listening Option. If I love the book than I can always buy the book to dive into more details. Not all apps are created equal and this is one of the most unique app on the App Store. If you are a book lover, then this app is for you with the best match of quality and support from Blinkist.

My downloads stop is I put the app on background. Some books from my library aren’t accessible for download or reading. Support says nothing or give generic answers. Time to move to headway or use chatgpt instead of this. Sad that I paid for a yearly subscription

Useless for many books. Reading few paragraphs of each chapter won’t cut it. You need to put more effort

I've been using the Blinkist app for over a month now, and while I appreciate the concept of accessing many book summaries, I've encountered several issues that hinder the overall experience: 1. Removing books in progress: This feature doesn't work as expected. Despite attempting to remove them, the books still remain in the list. 2. Invisible queue: The app allows adding books to a queue, but this queue is not visible anywhere. It's frustrating because this hidden queue is used to play books in a playlist, which I can't see or manage. 3. Random book playback: Books seem to play randomly. When I have books in progress, I expect them to be played sequentially. Instead, after finishing a book, the app randomly plays another book that I didn't save or intend to listen to next. 4. Removing saved books: Removing books from the saved list doesn't work in some menus. It only seems to work when I am inside the book details page. 5. Inability to remove finished books: I should have the ability to manage my lists fully, including removing books that I have finished. 6. Syncing issues between app and website: The saved books and books in progress lists are not synced between the Blinkist app and the Blinkist website, causing confusion and inconsistency. 7. Swipe functionality for adding/removing books: Users should be able to swipe right or left to add or remove books, rather than needing to tap on the three dots menu. 8. Visibility and management of the queue: Add visibility to see the hidden queue and provide the ability to manage it. 9. Multiple flags for books: Allow books to have multiple flags, such as being saved in a collection while also being tagged as finished. These issues make it particularly troublesome to use the app while driving, as I can't afford to fiddle with the app instead of focusing on the road. I believe an app like Blinkist should have its core functionalities—playlists, saving, and removing books—working seamlessly. Please address these issues and ensure thorough testing before releasing
