Cool. I’ll give it a test. You wouldn’t know away to scrape all the book urls would you?

Oh nice one, I’ll take a better look at it when I get him. how does it work exactly? Will I need to manually point it at the book url?

I managed to get a 90% off code which is why I bought the year subscription. If all the other service I used to use are anything to go by, prices will increase. Would be nice to have the audio on my iPod for when I want to leave my phone somewhere

Update: I have previously used an emulated android phone to download for offline some yoga videos from a subscription app and then save them to pc. Is there away to automate this process? Blinkist has like 6500 “blinks” and it would take a while to do that manually

 

Hey all,

I’m looking to grab the audio files from Blinkist (I have an annual subscription if that matters) because I want to be able to listen to them at a slightly faster speed and their in app player doesn’t allow this.

Is there a way to either rip these from the site using a scraper - the Blinkist-m4a-downloader on GitHub doesn’t work anymore - or I guess automate a process to save the books in app, download them - audio files are streamed but you can save and download for offline playback within the app - and three somehow pull them off my phone storage?

 

Is there any more recent rips of the Blinkist library? Only ones I can find are now 3 years old.

Alternatively are there ways of automating saving “blinks” and downloading them for offline listening on an android. I think one way to get everything is to manually go through all categories, saving, downloading for offline and then pulling them off the phone
