Great app but...

I think it’s a great application but it would be even better if it has support for Spanish language.

Die beste App die ich jemals besaß!!

Hallo liebes Entwicklerteam, Anbei, ich bin auf euch aufmerksam geworden durch ein Zitat von Hr. Cook, welcher eure App als absolutes MUST HAVE betitelte. Ich zahle gerne die 60-70 Euro, da die Bücher mich in meinem Intellekt sehr gefördert haben. Einen Verbesserungsvorschlag bzw. Eine Idee habe ich aber noch: Wie wäre es, dass es möglich wäre, beim Lesen eines Blinks am Seitenrand Notizen zu machen, und Textphrasen markieren kann welche für mich essenziell wichtig sind? Würde gerne eure Meinung hören! Bleibt Gesund, ich freue mich auf neue TITEL!

Abo abzocke

7 Tage Probeabo. Das wollte ich. Dann musste ich bestätigen, dass ich vom Abo nicht zurücktreten kann, wenn ich die App innerhalb 14 Tage benutzt habe (oder ähnlicher Wortkaut) und es würde dann 79.99€ pro Jahr kosten. Dann erstes Hörbuch - sollte 9.99€ als Premium Kunde zahlen. Normal wären 12.99€ fällig. Leute, ich möchte mal bei euch wohlgesonnen reinschnuppern und ihr zockt mich mit Abofallen ab (Werbung mit 7 Tage Probeabo von dem dann nie mehr die Rede ist) und dazu noch mit nicht attraktiven Hörbuchpreisen die noch oben drauf kommen. Von Probeabo war also von nun an nirgends mehr die Rede. Die Webseite verspricht innerhalb von 14 Tagen Rücktritt vom Kauf, ohne wenn und aber. Außer beim App Store... Dort habe ich jetzt eine Stornierung beantragt, auf guten Willen sozusagen. Ich fühle mich von Blinkist verarscht und werde mich sicher nicht nochmal da blicken lassen.

stay away very bad customer experience and poor content

Customer service is rude and completely dumb. I mistakenly paid twice for the subscription and they are not giving my money back. They think they are smarter then the rest of the world, doing advertising everywhere but look at the comments on Facebook and you will see the truth. STAY AWAY FROM THIS APP. Very disappointed.

Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
CoreMedia
The Core Media framework defines the media pipeline used by AVFoundation and other high-level media frameworks found on Apple platforms. Use Core Media's low-level data types and interfaces to efficiently process media samples and manage queues of media data.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Security Framework
Secure the data your app manages. Protect information and control access to your app.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
