Installed this since I'm looking to spend time my free time reading summaries than on social media. Problem is the app constantly breaks. It keeps saying I don't have internet when I do. Also tried out Headway and that one's cheaper and didn't have problems.

The downloaded books can't be read or listened to in airplane mode, so it's basically useless. One extra star because they contacted me, but the instructions were as usual: try to reinstall, delete chache, etc, with no success.

I bought the Pro subscription for one year due to a tempting Black Friday offer via my GooglePlay account, which is displayed in the Google account when shopping, but this is not forwarded to the app, so only the Basic subscription appears there! I've been trying around for 45 minutes now, like in 1998 when the Internet didn't work on the Windows PC. Something like that shouldn't happen anymore these days... Very, very annoying....

Unfortunately the app has major issues. It is always shutting down at random times mid book and telling me I have wifi connection issues (I don't). The way to fix is to just wait awhile. It also doesn't take you back where you left off in a book. I did however find customer service very responsive when I reached out. They are aware of the bugs and trying to fix them so here's hoping it's soon because it's a great initiative but definitely not worth paying for in its current state

The content is good. The app does not allow you to hide content that has already been seen. It is also otherwise problematic to find the content.

After subscribring I almost lost interest in this app after reading only few titles. I got subscription at very cheap and discount rate. After watching interface of another competitive apps I think blinkist yet requires a lot to improve. The app only provides very basic and core concept of books.
