Blinkist Reviews & Product Details

What it promises is good, but it does not fulfill it efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The catalog, although it seems extensive, is often based on texts that have been widely circulated for some time, and new titles do not appear very often. Furthermore, the application is designed to make you listen to what they recommend and not what you have chosen to listen to. I wanted to use it for when I go running or walking, and it's stressful to have to stop to correct the app. I don't plan to renew the subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Blinkist for giving me a solid overview of books I want to read, and it saves time. I really appreciate its ease of use and how it's available on multiple platforms. I also like the speed and the reviews at the end of each book. It's very easy to use, and I wouldn't change anything about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, it's very easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I love most about Blinkist? The sheer variety of books—from mindset to money moves—and a customer service team that actually listens. Add in the price point, and it’s one of the best value-for-impact tools in my stack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Downsides? Honestly, not many. If I had to nitpick, it’s that sometimes I wish there were even more niche titles. But the ability to read along silently or follow visually while listening is a huge win. I also love the history feature—it’s like a personal trail of every power thought I’ve picked up along the way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not that much of interest it can bring compared to reading whole book, mainly when reading novel or fictional books Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that they do some work to review almost all the books you'd consider reading Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's surface level at best. Some will be dooped to think you've "read the whole book" but certain genres like biographies or science books have a lot of details and stories you're missing completely with any type of summary Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blinkist lets you listen to or read the key ideas from nonfiction bestsellers in around 15 minutes with their "Blinks." You can also get the main takeaways from podcasts in 15-minute listens with Shortcasts, or dive deeper with full-length audiobooks—all in one app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think of anything. It does exactly what it says it does. You can get a quick list of key points from so many non-fiction books. Mabey the only thing would be that more titles would be rad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of Blinkist is that everything is available in text and audio, so you can choose the medium that suits you best every time you log in. Unlike a whole-book summary, the "blinks" tries to give you the essence of the book in key take-away points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For someone who likes to read long-form content, "blinks" are too condensed to give you broader understanding. In addition, the free plan is so crippled that you absolutely need to have the paid plan to really see the value of the service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
