WOW! This was not what I expected 😅
I Tried Blinkist App For 30 days - Honest Blinkist Review / For years, I have seen people on social media telling us what is Blinkist app and recommending it, but I never believed it could be that amazing. After all, it's just another personal development app, so I never even googled "is Blinkist good?" I preferred to read the actual books.
But now I've seen so many self-help books repeat the same stuff again and again, so I realized I needed to do something to stop wasting time. It's finally time to do a 30-day Blinkist app review to figure out how does Blinkist work and is Blinkist worth it.
This video is again another episode in my own self-care journey that I'm sharing with you guys. Hope you enjoy it!

Seve, I really liked your overview of the app blinkist. The video was great! It was informative,visually interesting because it was relevant to the topic and I liked how the video was segmented into manageable clips. It made me want to purchase blinkist.
So glad to hear this, Candace 🤗 Check the link in my description to get a discount!
We're late to the party, but we just had to say how impressed we are with your review, Seve! If you're still using Blinkist, you may have noticed that your feedback has been heard. Now, after finishing each Blink, users can rate it and let us know if they think we missed something from the original book.
Oooh that's amazing to hear! Thanks for stopping by ✌️
Great to hear a company that takes feedback seriously. This alone will make me want to try it out.
@@sinetwo If you do - we'd love to hear your impressions!
If I can add a feedback, the app is missing a button to play all saved items... I spent hours choosing books, saving them in my library, only to realize that to listen to them I need to open one by one, or add then one by one in the listening queue 🙈
So a 'play all button' and/or ' add all to the queue' and or a select option would save so many clicks... I am thinking that's probably the biggest reason I stopped using blinkist.
@@pablogomez8236 Appreciate the feedback! It definitely makes sense and it's something we'll be looking into!
I really like that you tried reviewing while different activities, especially running and walking.
Wow. This is the first time I have commented on the quality of a video. Your structuring was clean and concise and very enjoyable to follow. You also answered all the questions I had regarding Blinkist. Bravo, you gained a subscriber! Thanks for the effort, it is appreciated
Spectacular summary, thank you.
What a great quality video! Straight to the point - keep it up bud! 😃
Thanks Aman! 😎
Thanks a lot for this video, you gave me all the answers to my doubts about Blinkist. I was skeptical as you and this video saved me a lot of time trying to do what you've done, thanks again a lot!!!!
Glad I could help! Thanks for leaving the kind comment Chris 😊
This was a great and thoughtful review. Thank you for putting this together.
Thank you. That's nice to hear 😊
Truly appreciate this comprehensive review... fantastic job sir!
Thank you kindly! 😎
Thank you so much. You took me through the experience really thoroughly. Really useful!!
So glad to hear you liked it 🙌🏼 Thanks for watching Mayank!

Thank youuu 😎
Very helpful video Steve. Thank you. Your review has convinced me to purchase blinkist
Thank you! 😊😊
Thank you for all your advice with this video, it was really helpful and I appreciate all the effort you put into it! :)
Thank you! 😊😊
downloaded the app and really enjoyed it so far. Great review Seve!
Great to hear! 😊
Ey, buddy! Thank you for sharing this. I was actually searching for a similar app, but instead I found this video and then your channel by the way it’s amazing and the kind of topics I like to learn for here. New subscriber ✨
Glad to hear that! Thank you so much 🌟
Great video!!! So clear!
Glad it was helpful! 🙌
Great review! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! 🙌
Hope you liked my field research in the Mission 2 😄Let me know if you have some other study tips 👇
Dude.This was fantastic. I allready bought Blinkist today and went to CZcams just to see HOW to use it. You analysis is awesome. Smart. Insightful. Unique. Awesome brotha....
Thank you so much! 😊
Top quality video, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was pretty good 👍🏽 Thanks
Thank you! ✌️
Great video! You put a lot of effort into it and structured it very well. Thank you for sharing with us.
I’m currently trying out Blinkist, but to be completely honest, it feels a little bit like cheating. Also, my FOMO is really high, but you reduced it, by showing that Blinkist’s summary was comparable to your in-depth one.
Still, I feel like listening to so many books in such little time reduces the value of each book, it’s less rewarding to have finally made it through.
I’m excited to see how I’ll like Blinkist in the future 😅
Thank you for the comment, Felix! 🙌 Now after a few months, I've often realized that it's so much about how well you listen: are you ready to learn or just in the "zombie" mode and having the book in the background. Reading the script & taking notes helps a lot!
I wouldn't recommend listening to one book a day, if you really want to learn and improve your life. After this 30-day experiment, I have focused so much more on quality than quantity and it has worked well! Some books I've even listened to twice. If you feel you like some summary very much, I would highly consider buying a copy of it too ✌
@@SunnyKindJourney Thanks for your additional input! I’ll keep those tips in mind and if I remember, report back in a few weeks 😄 Best wishes from Germany
Oh great this is going to start the biggest generation of know it alls. If you tell someone about a book your reading to give advice, the know it all will say oh i read that book dude so i know that book so i know exactly 💯 what you mean😂
This app is good if you have read and studied and taken notes and made Q and A flash cards and memorized your flascards to at least 80 percent. then you try blinkist otherwise its just a bs app creating more narcissistic know it alls 🤣🤣🤣💯
Thank u for this informative video
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Amazing video! :)
Thanks! 😊
I prefer Synopsia app, lots of features, simple and lots of books
Thanks for sharing
Nice video !
Thanks! Glad you liked it 😉
Thanks for the very useful video!
Thanks for watching 😊😊
Can i just find video summaries on CZcams?
Started free blinkist this year. So far I have listened to 100+ books. I buy one I like, skip ones that I don’t have interest.
Sounds amazing! ✌️ Keep it going!
Thanks!
Thank you so much, Hal! ❤ That was the biggest donation I ever got on my channel. So grateful! Have a nice weekend 🤗
The use of this “price is right,” sound effect is making me laugh so hard.
I enjoy it , it is worth it, went through 15 summaries, brought 2 books
Couldn’t stand Shakespeare before and listened to Hamlet, now I want to listen to them all
why do thse comments read like bot farm comments
If your comments sound like they can be applied to literally any video under the sun. it's bots.
Can you read blikist books in landscape mode? I would most likely be using my ipad and wouldnt want to take it off my Magic Keyboard
Hard to say since I don't own ipad or tablet with afaik on phone you can't
I think for real book lover then map of new publishing may help to find a real interesting book to read
Very well made video. Actually I am already on free trial when I watched this video so is there a way I can still get discount from your link 😅
Thank you! I am not 100% sure actually, probably not. I think you would have to cancel that before the 1st payment goes through and then create a new account using my link to get the discount.
Yeah I like Blinkist. And if I really like a summary I can then go read the entire book.
Well said! 😎
How can i get you summary notes.
Shoot your email and I'll send you some 😊
How about the copyright of Blinkist ? Did them got the permission from the authors?
Good question! They definitely gave a thought to this before launching the app and even share some of the profits with the original publishers 🙌🏼
Here's more info about this: support.blinkist.com/hc/en-us/articles/218524377-What-about-copyrights-Are-you-stealing-from-authors-
❤
❤️
But what genres of books are in their list? story , science , mix? which genre are more to find. Because if its is story book, for me personally is of no use to pay for that service.
They have a lot! Here you can find all the 27 categories: www.blinkist.com/magazine/posts/nonfiction-book-list-blinkist
Is there a monthly subscription rather than yearly one?
Good question! They do but it costs double ($13 per month) and it doesn't come with a free trial. So my recommendations would be to use my discount link in the description that includes a free trial and drops the yearly price down to $59.99. In case you don't like it, you can just cancel it before the trial ends and if you do, you will get more bang for your buck than paying $13 every month 😊 Hope this helps!
@@SunnyKindJourney Thank you!
But does it work with like Medical books or Physics books?
Great question! I have to admit, I haven't tried out those. To find out, I suggest first checking their selection if they have the books you would like to study and if yes, you can use the free trial to see if you like the summaries of those. If not, you can always cancel 😉
Wowo
Is the app free ?
It's a freemium type of service. Some books are free but you need to pay to access all of them
Thanks. I would have been more helpful if you would have used more than one genre, I.e. “self-help.
Thanks for the feedback! 🙏
It's too expensive.
You can get 25% discount using my code that is in the description and maybe during some Black Friday they have even better deals if it's still too much. Free trials are always your friends too! At least for me the ROI has been crazy 😊
How u can be honest in a review, if u get money for linkusers?
By knowing that my reputation is more valuable than getting money. I could have made the app look so much better and disregard all the faults it has but instead I tried to be as transparent as possible. I made this video long time ago but still use and pay for Blinkist to this day so this wasn't definitely a fake review just to get money
this 12 minute video regarding an app for book summaries is too long for me - ill just skip to the summary at the end
..I think this app might be for me :D
You need to use AD to your video :\
Thanks for the comment Michal! 🙌 Blinkist didn't sponsor this video or ask me to use their service, I got the app on my own. But still as I really want to be transparent, I mention in the description and around 8:30 of the video about the possibility of using a discount affiliate link that would benefit both you and the channel 😊 It's a link that gets you to a free trial so you can see if you can find out if the app is as beneficial for you as it's for me before committing to a full year payment 👍
Where is his accent from?
Well, it's a mix of Finnish, Italian & Greek I guess 😄
@@SunnyKindJourney Good that you aren't Finished . Joke . great video , now promo is 75% off. 22usd a buck for your eyes. Salute .
doing a review with a link to the product.
my message will be deleted anyways but i just wanted to say that this is propaganda.
Your message will not be deleted. Not going to limit your freedom of speech ✌️ I would have posted the video even if I thought the app was shit haha 😄 The video is old but I still pay for Blinkist myself, so 100% honest review with all the positives and negatives shared about the app!
You should be religious.
Yes, Buddahism is recommended.
@@someoneelse6934 I meant Christian/Catholic.
