Version History
-
4.7.9
Our developers squashed a few bugs for this newest version and carefully polished the app from the inside out, so now its true colors can shine through! Most changes happened below the surface, but don't worry: we're building new features to share with you, soon!
-
4.7.8
At Blinkist, we believe all of our users should have a seamless learning experience. That's why we're proud to announce that, with this release, we have completed the first phase of integrating VoiceOver in our app. This VoiceOver integration means that the Blinkist app will be able to talk through its functionalities so everyone—including people with visual impairments—can easily navigate the app and access the big ideas in our library. The final touches of this integration will come in the next few weeks.
-
4.7.7
Do you like to highlight as you read? If yes, then this is the update for you. Our latest release makes highlighting your favorite ideas from a book-in-blinks easier and more seamless than ever before.

-
4.7.5
Sometimes you just need to keep going. Fix the small things and forego the fanfare of the big announcement. So it is with this update, which comes without fireworks, but should mean fewer crashes. Where do we go from here? A good Blinkist starting point is Breakfast With Socrates, Robert Rowland Smith’s romp through the history of ideas. And why not follow up with Coffee Lunch Coffee by Alana Muller?
-
4.7.4
We've always taken matters of privacy and data security seriously, so the new European data protection laws that came in this month haven't required us to make any major changes. But you might notice we've removed your profile photo if you had one and your email address is no longer stored in the app. For an eye-opening insider account of how European policies come into being, we recommend the blinks from Yanis Varoufakis's Adults In The Room.
-
4.7.3
We’ve fixed the (thankfully rare but deeply annoying) bug that would crash your app if you gobbled down several Books in Blinks in a single session. So now you can binge on everything from why All Marketers Are Liars to Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance – without interruption.
-
4.7.2
We’ve fixed the bug that was causing some pages to repeat when you swipe to the next blink. Make sure you’re using the latest version of the app to avoid any annoying double-blinks.
-
4.7.1
Restore purchases is restored! We fixed a bug that was causing the restore purchases feature to break. If it wasn't working for you, try again after this update.
-
4.7.0
This time around we revamped the profile screen, made some improvements to how quickly the app works and added a little surprise to the end of your reading experience. Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

Once again we've focused on squashing as many bugs as possible - fixing issues with library filters, removing an audioplayer crash, and other improvements here & there.

Stay tuned for new things to come soon! -
4.6.2
Our developers tried to squash many of the audio issues in the app. It's not perfect yet, but we're working hard to make the audio experience a truly premium one. Give it a shot and let us know if the audio is still...bugging you. -
4.6.1
No more seeing double! We fixed the issue with duplicated chapters appearing for some users. To remove the extra chapters, first install the Blinkist app update, then log out and in again with your account. -
4.6.0
The future is here. We know it, and we performed a galaxy of bug fixes to support it!
iOS 11 users had been encountering issues with the app, so we went through and
smoothed over the experience until it was as slick as a windshield on The Starship
Enterprise. iPhone X users, we took care of you, too—dive back into the blinks
and you'll find a much smoother ride. -

4.3.1
We've introduced a new feature that makes downloading audio books-in-blinks a one-tap breeze: you'll see a new Download icon as soon as you open your library. But don't fret—all those audio files won't eat up all your device's precious memory! You can easily delete all downloaded audio files at once in your app settings. And with this latest update, you can toggle on auto-delete, so downloaded audio disappears in a cloud of digital smoke the moment you're done listening. POOF! More free space for the next titles on your list…
