Blinist app for iOS (version 6.3.0)
Date: 04/30/20
Description:
Here's a minor bug with the Blinkist app. I think that this can be fixed quickly. I think it might explain if there's been a loss of referrals to Blinkist via Facebook.
The default (auto-generated) Facebook message results in a dead link.
There's the @blinkist, which combines with the URL to make a dead link. Lots of people have shared these dead links on Facebook, with users on Facebook mentioning that the links are dead:
Since most people share these links via Facebook, and then never go back to check their Facebook postings, this most likely goes unnoticed. The site is losing traffic!
Lots of dead links on Facebook:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch the app
2. After entering into the app, select the "Free Daily Pick"
3. Select the "..." in the upper right
4. From the iOS Share Sheet, select the Facebook option
5. Share the link to Facebook
6. Head to Facebook and notice that the link is dead
Result: Sharing something from the Blinkist app to Facebook results in a dead link
Expected: Sharing something to from the Blinkist app to Facebook should not result in a dead link - should be a space between @Blinkist and the URL
