MP3 Audiobook Player Customer Service

MP3 Audiobook Player Positive Reviews

Good, but a few bugsI have liked most aspects of the MP3 Audiobook Player. It has the ability to boost the volume and speed books up well beyond the standard 2.0x that most players are limited too. The interface is easy to use and I like that it provides multiple ways to get audiobooks onto your device. One of my favorite features is the ability to bundle a bunch of MP3s into one book so you don't have to fiddle around with multiple files and trying to get them in the right order. My only complaint with MP3 Audiobook Player is that it starts playing paused books whenever my iPhone rings. That bug is super annoying. If the developers could fix this issue, MP3 Audiobook Player would be nigh unto perfect..InnocentoldguyVersion: 1.145

Really love this app for audiobooksI’ve been using this app for several years for audiobooks that have I have purchased from Audible and then removed the DRM from the audiobook using Open Audible. One of the things I love about the app is that it has an EQ. Using the EQ, I can fine tune vocals for audiobooks so that they’re sharp and clear. Another thing I love about this app is that I fall asleep with audiobooks on, so you can set the timer to automatically turn on whenever you start an audiobook and the shake to wake feature has adjustable sensitivity levels. This way I can set the timer for five minutes if I’m not falling asleep immediately I can just give it a light tap and it’ll add five minutes. The Audible app doesn’t have adjustable sensitivity levels for the shake to wake and it doesn’t allow you to automatically set the sleep timer. Also, I really love that this isn’t a subscription based app. I don’t have to keep paying for it over and over again to remove ads and get extra features. It’s a small fee and it’s totally worth the money. I also find this app easy to use with my own personal audiobooks. I just use the my Files app on my iPhone to transfer the audiobook from my windows computer to my iphone and then use the import feature in this app to load the audiobook into the app. also, I had a small question about the app and the author replied immediately..7x70!!!!!! :)Version: 1.171

Great app but...Update 4/25. App remembers last location without issue. I have only experienced 1 issue with app but it is annoying enough for me look for other apps. The book will restart from the beginning about every other time of listening. I do like the bookmark option but I often stop listening because of interruptions. Phone, people etc. And if I forget to go back and bookmark. I lose my spot when book restarts. What makes this more frustrating is there is no easy way to skip around. If you use bar at bottom it is not for fine tuning and moves in large chunks especially on longer books. I even paid for this app to see if remembering last spot was a premium function. It is not. I tried help section but it is small and only is for importing books. Good app except for this quirk which is a big one for me. It would be 5 stars from me if I could use it without cussing every time it restarts my book ha.Bill&$)(;Version: 1.173

Great player!I’ve tried many different players and this one is my favorite. I really like the wide range of configuration options available in Settings. I’m editing out complaints from an earlier review because the developer has resolved the issues I was having, so thanks much for that! This player really rocks now!! A couple feature requests please? I’d like to be able to annotate my books inside the player. Let’s say I’ve really enjoyed a book or maybe want to do some further research later on a topic mentioned in a book. It would be awesome if I could add a note (“keep this book for re-listen”....”look up this area on a map”....write my congressman about____”...). If I could tag a book with a colored dot, I could assign categories to the colors (green for “Great book”, red for “terrible book”, yellow for “do more research on this”...). 1). Further still, the ability to add actual text notes would be tremendously useful. I’m usually doing yardwork/housework while listening so it’s not easy to stop and make notes outside the app. 2). Being able to add categories to my books in the app is nice but since categories don’t persist once I’ve removed the last book in a category I’ve created, it becomes too onerous to keep recreating categories all the time. Can you make them persist please? I’ll copy/paste this comment to the paid version too since that’s what I’m using now. If it helps you sell more full versions, you might consider making these more advanced features part of the paid version. Thanks for reading.....BahnjeeVersion: 1.133

File Name vs Metadata Track NameIt's a good app and does exactly what it says it'll do. I was glad to pay the upgrade price to unlock all features. What mostly surprised me is that after syncing a handful of Audiobooks I own in mp3 format, when playing the files the app shows the file name, and not the track name. For those unfamiliar with metadata tagging, this means that if I've taken the effort to tag all of my files so that TRACK name would appear correctly when playing the book in iTunes or another app (eg. Chapter 14: Felix Felicis), this app will instead show the FILE name (eg. Harry Potter 6 - 15). Admittedly, MOST of my files are music related, so I have carefully tagged the metadata in ALL of them so that the track name will appear correctly in any app or software that plays media files. This is the first time I've ever used a audio file app that recognizes mp3 files but only by the file name. I've checked and rechecked the settings and don't see a way for the app to recognize the files differently. Yes, I can go back through all of my files are rename them so that the file name and the track name are identical, but that's a lot of time and energy, and I'm not sure it's worth it. So yes, this is a good, almost great app. But those who are like me, and choosy about how you've organized the metadata on your audio files may want to know going in that this app only shows the file name..Music-meisterVersion: 1.90

Fantastic App!This is, without a doubt, one of the best apps I’ve ever used! I’ve watched this grow from a simple MP3 player app that was a little buggy at times to one of the best audiobook apps that’s available. It’s certainly better than the one provided by Apple. And don’t let the name fool you. It plays much more than just MP3s. It’s got everything a person could want in an audiobook app. Chapter markings and notes, an equalizer to get the sound just right, a much easier way to upload books than Apple app ever offered. This thing’s got it all! It’s so flexible that it can even play .flac files, some thing every Apple audio program refuses to do. I don’t know what I paid for the “professional” app. Maybe $5? Whatever the price, it was well worth it! Highly recommend it!.TravisBickle2Version: 1.157

Necessary for an audio BibleI use this app. to hear the Bible, usually while exercising on a ski machine (with a separate Bluetooth speaker). The audio Bible I have is in German, so I get some language practice, too. The app. keeps the files in their proper order, which iTunes did not. I see the app. has a procedure built in for uploading files to the iPhone. I had already used 3rd party software to do that for a previous iPhone, and these files came over to this phone when I got a new phone. This app. clips the chapter number just a little when starting a new chapter, but only when using the Bluetooth speaker, so that may be a problem wit the speaker software. My previous audio book player did not do that. Other than that, it does what I want..StahlbrennerVersion: 1.118

Decent appI check out lots of audiobooks from the library , and they have long waiting lists for newer books, plus limits to time allowed to keep them. This app is helpful, as I can do a couple simple steps to transfer the files into this app, then return the book to the library , giving others the chance to listen to it, while giving me time to complete it. I have yet to purchase the upgrade , but after I try this a bit longer, as long as it works well, I probably will, as the free app has a limit to 10 hour audiobooks. That’s a bit of a problem, since many of the books I listen to are much longer than that. Other than that, no problems so far..Jkl5876Version: 1.109

Great but has issues latelyFirst let me say I love this app and have been using it for years. I’d like to point out that I recently upgraded to the iPhone 15 pro max and have been having issues with the app ever since. When I stop a book or use the sleep timer, it marks my placement far later than where I actually stopped, about 30 min -1 hour. It’s a little frustrating because I have to go back and search for where I truly stopped listening. Not sure if this is an issue with the current version or the new model phone. I hope this gets fixed because I really do consider this to be the best audiobook app out there..KisinienblossomVersion: 1.163

Fixed my wifi problem!Fine app, but don’t expect any help from Oleg. He doesn’t care. My iphone suddenly wouldn’t connect to my pc for transferring audiobooks. The fix is to turn off “Private Wi-fi Address” under the ‘i’ next to your wifi network in Settings/Wifi. This feature was added to an IOS upgrade recently and blocks this app from communicating. Turn the Private setting back on when you’re done for the marginal security it provides. Thanks for all your help, Oleg!.Mitch10101Version: 1.163

Phenomenal Audiobook AppI have a number of audiobooks of various formats and ages, collected over decades. I digitized them all to use on mobile devices before iPhones even existed, but obviously now I’d rather not carry a separate device around with me. MP3 Audiobook Player to the rescue! This app lets me load books wirelessly, even via WebDAV, and has excellent usability features like playback speed. It can also be the target of a timer on iOS, so you can set a bedtime timer and automatically stop playback when desired. I just love it, and immediately bought the full version after I saw what it could do..ValdyssesVersion: 1.134

What the doctor orderedFits the bill perfectly to play audiobooks ripped from other media: premium version allows bookmarking, reading rate change (the best I've ever seen from .5x through 3x and every variation in between) and sleep timer. Plays files in multiple formats, including mp3s and m4b (audiobook version of m4a). Easy to load books through iTunes file sharing. I haven't tried the wireless method. Well worth the money for the premium version (which you can just purchase outright, but I got it free first, liked it, and almost immediately did the IAP for the pro features). Been looking for a solution since Audible discontinued the feature to play your own iTunes audiobook library and iBooks is inadequate. This is it. Highly recommended. Found this while trying to figure out how to play a library of audiobooks from a favorite author ripped from cassettes and CDs (not available on Audible - always my go-to)..Shakurav1Version: 1.65

A Joy to UseI have used this app to listen to my audio books for several years now. I keep several book series, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, etc., add new books, remove after read, etc. While I currently have 17 books loaded, with several books in progress, the app has never lost a reading place. Bookmarks work like a charm. I not only listen to audio books at home, I also listen while I drive. I appreciate that the app pauses during turn-by-turn directions. Thank you for an app that just does its thing flawlessly..StillcrazyVersion: 1.96

Works but audio balance is messed up on AirPods ProFor some reason the audio sounds like it’s coming from the side or bottom when using AirPods Pro. I changed the audio engine from automatic to universal and that helped but when I pause and play again the audio is again messed up and I need to go back and toggle the audio engine back and forth to fix it. I took off a second star because the free version has a limit of 12h per book which they should more clearly say. Overall it’s a decent app but I’m going back to bookplayer which is completely free due to the above 2 issues..Qwerty1324Version: 1.161

PerfectAfter having many problems with the built-in audiobook player that comes with Apple products I was so happy to find this application. Not only does it accept MP3 files it joins them together. I have experienced numerous problems where an MP4 book will play in iTunes but would not play in the app that comes with my iPhone. This application plays them all flawlessly. And the increased speed is perfect. As one who consumes 2 to 3 audiobooks a week this is just what I needed..Tom1142Version: 1.135

Great! Until...Worked perfectly. I’ve listened to countless books using this app and upgraded. I’ve loved it until today when it just stopped working for some reason. I deleted it and redownloaded it. I was able to reupload my mp3s but now they won’t play. They work fine on my computer. It’s been hell trying to get support. Edit: there is a setting I needed to change. If phone volume is on zero, it doesn’t work 🤦🏽‍♀️ changed the setting and has no problems..J.Glover86Version: 1.111

Very nice interfaceI really like this app. I was looking for something to replace another app I was using, which would be more capable and easier to use. This is it. The interface is very easy to figure out, and there are many configuration options. The only thing keeping it from being five stars is that the speed selection only goes in tenths, e.g., 1.2, 1.3, 1.4. Better would be to have it go by hundredth’s instead, or at least by 0.05 instead of 0.1. Sometimes you can’t quite get the perfect speed, but otherwise this is a great app..Dävïd:Version: 1.119

Great audiobook app, but...I think this app is pretty awesome, BUT it takes about 13 SECONDS to play the book when you press the “play button”, instead of immediately. I even purchased the pro thinking that the issue will be resolved with the upgrade; sadly no such luck. Could you guys PLEASE fix that issue. Other than that, I really like the interface and the fact you can Google book covers through the app. But ultimately, that’s pretty much the main issue keeping me from 5 stars at the moment haha. Thank you.Young gozeVersion: 1.144

This is a bonus appI love this app for many reasons. I don’t use it for general music. I have too much. I use it for books (duh), guided meditations and solfeggio healing tracks. I set up my list using bk, med, and snd in the title as the sort item so I can see each media form in its own space/order. I would give this app 4.5 stars if I could. The only thing I would like to see is to have the ability to hit “replay” as an option..PeacewarriorVersion: 1.146

Best Audiobook MP3 player I've used so farI've used a couple different MP3 players, but this one is the best I've used. I've been using if for at least 2 years. It's never failed me. I love the bookmarking feature but mainly love how it remembers my spot when I close the app. I've even deleted an audiobook half way and re installed it and it kept my place. I'm a truck driver so this is an essential for me. And as I've said, it's the best one I've found, by far..TroolyVersion: 1.78

Excellent audio player for podcasts and audiobooksHunted high and low for a simple user friendly audio media player and have been using this app every day for years. Had tried other apps and this is my absolute favorite. The team behind this is very fast and dedicated to solving any issues with the user experience. Highly recommended..GallagherblueVersion: 1.182

Excellent!This app has a ton of features for listening to your audiobooks. The shake to extend the sleep timer is very convenient and a feature I miss when I switch back to the Audible app for my library there. Also, the equalizer has been a really nice addition along with the audio preset built in. I can keep my books out on my iCloud Drive and download them when I’m ready to listen. Great app!.KwikknickVersion: 1.108

Great app but having upload problemsI cannot get WiFi upload to work anymore. I have turned off the iOS ip privacy settings. The app still shows the friendly name rather than the ip and shows no port. I did try the ip:1111 anyway but no luck. I also tried to contact support but the form wouldn’t work. RESOLVED: Weirdly you have to turn “Private WiFi address” on for it to work.U2jrmwVersion: 1.165

Exactly what I was looking forI just purchased a pack of MP3 audiobooks and I normally listen to Audible at 1.5 normal speed. So when I have to listen to things at normal speed or whatever it is EXCRUCIATING!!! I am so glad I found this app and the fact that you can dial up your speed by tenths instead of quarters is even better. Now if only o could figure out how to love my audible library over here...????.RbrtbrrnVersion: 1.69

Great sound quality at higher speedsThis is the only audiobook player I've found that can speed books up (without changing the pitch) and still keep the sound quality very good. It sounds as good as Overcast (minus a couple features like skipping empty spots and voice boosting) but makes it easy to import books (Overcast forces you to upload them to their servers with a 2gb limit)..ZzzmarcusVersion: 1.65

Excellent!I’ve tried several audiobook apps and this is by far the best for ease of use, great features, and wonderful ui. Everything that you need is available on the main screen and easily accessible. Navigation is easy, settings for customizing are very flexible, and the support for bookmarks is superior. This is the one to buy..Books-ahoyVersion: 1.190

Best Audiobook playerLoved the free version so much, I upgraded to the Pro version. Love how it can play numerous formats. Easy to use, and navigate. Hope in a future update they include the ability to autoplay the next book after the previous one ended. Not all files are always a book, so in those cases this would be perfect, as some files are per chapter from some online sources..Hart316Version: 1.141

Absolutely perfect... almostWish they had the functionality of knowing how much time you've listened to total or for a given period. But adding books from my collection is a breeze and playback is great. Every once in a while it'll behave strange in car play (time moves on like it's playing but no audio. Stop and start and it's fixed) but otherwise it's a spectacular alternative to audible..JbearontheairVersion: 1.119

Awesome app!I love this app, especially after the previous update which added iPhone X support. I have to say that this latest update that just came out today is taking a step backwards with respect to how it looks on the iPhone X. The notch area is too busy now, especially with the arrow and previous app name in the top left. Please go back your previous design. Thanks..FarisFoxVersion: 1.69

Like it it but...I use the app starting 2011. Always was happy with design and performance. Now, sometime after April app randomly crashes while playing an audio file (phone is not in use). Happens at least once a day, which is pretty annoying. I use iPhone SE. again, it’s a pretty new bug and maybe it is fixed in the latest update. Cheers.Sonar11Version: 1.99

Exactly what I was looking for.The app allows a lot of freedom as far as organization and playback speed. Sleep timer is adjustable and combining books into series folders is simple. Equalizer helps to adjust pitch when playing at high speeds and helps reduces feedback with poor quality recordings. App never crashes and I don’t have any complaints..HhathornVersion: 1.111

Does a simple job and does it perfectlyPlaying existing mp3 audio book files should be a slam dunk for an iPhone, but Apple doesn’t make it easy. This program fills this gap in functionality. It is easy to add files, through iCloud for example, and the app’s play functions work as expected. A pleasure to use..L_SVersion: 1.146

Constant chargesWorks great but they constantly try to recharge you for the lifetime fee. It won’t work until you pay again and again. The notice says that if you paid before you will not be charged again but then comes the notice from Apple that you have been charged again. Not a lot of money but really annoying to be lied to over and over..Blueboy32Version: 1.151

Great AppThe default music player doesn’t make it easy to add audio books from mp3, you can do it but it’s a pain in the but. This app makes it easy! I have been using it for years and I have been getting the updates for free! After my 1 time purchase. I like this app so much I deleted the music app and just have this..Jakeb1616Version: 1.133

It is also,relatively easy to get your files into the app. It is a definite recommend..PlantecVersion: 1.110

Exactly what I neededSo far this app is great. I had a bunch of audiobooks in both MP3 and M4B. It was really disappointing that I could use the MP3 ones on my regular player.

Phenomenal, life-changing app10/10, 5 stars, absolutely perfect app. Does exactly what it says and does it very, very well. Every feature that you could imagine needing is here, and they work flawlessly. As a young man I used to read two or three books a month. In the digital world, my attention span faded, and I stopped reading. This book has brought me back. In the last year and a half, I must’ve read over 50 bucks. Absolutely wonderful app, I’m so grateful that it is here. It is money very, very well spent. Strongly recommend. ** the only frustration I have, and this is only ever happened once. Is I was asked to restore purchases after well over a year of using it, and unfortunately that happened just as my flight took off. Without an Internet connection, I could not restore purchase and had to sit through the flight without being able to listen. But that is a small frustration and only happened once. This app is absolutely incredible. I cannot say enough good things..IHaateAppleVersion: 1.175

A heck of a deal for $5I reviewed and tested many audio book players before committing to one. This is the one, save yourself sometime and try it first. It has many features and does everything I need. It even integrates with the Bluetooth player in the car and lets me push the controls on the steering wheel to rewind by 15 seconds if I missed something. You can also load audio books directly from the internet (URL) from a zip file. It even looks great! Solid app for $5. Probably worth 4-5 times this..AstralonicVersion: 1.150

Pretty nice reader till you get in the carI have been using this app for a while and it worked nicely till last year when there was a bug that wouldn’t let me listen the books in the car for some reason. I think they fixed that bug later on and I have another bug that as son I enter the car and it is connected with the Bluetooth the sound automatically turns to zero and the player stops working again. When I turn off the Bluetooth on my phone I can continue listen to the book through phone speakers, but it is ridiculous to listen the book through the phone speakers when you have car speakers. My family loves listening to audio books, but I can’t use the app in the car when we travel because of this issue..VladvictoriaVersion: 1.134

Some bugs, but still goodI don’t get any controls from the locked screen, and I cannot start/stop the audio with headphone controls. Need to enter the app to do any kind of control. Audio gets tiny when you speed it up. Might just be bugs on my end? if not, please fix it? I paid to remove adds and support you, so please make it work. Used this as an alternative to the Official apple app..Grayfire1991Version: 1.119

Good audiobook playerI have enjoyed using this app though there are a couple of areas I would like to see improved. When importing books it doesn’t carry over the file names so I never know which file is which. Also the screen doesn’t automatically shut off meaning there have been several times I have fallen asleep and my phone was dead by the morning as the screen had been on all night. Otherwise it is a solid app. I import all my files from Dropbox and it works without a problem. Simple and easy to use..EvadtVersion: 1.111

A good audiobook playerNavigation on the app is easy, and it always starts where I left off..Stevo(25)Version: 1.07

Books not playingAfter most recent update books will not play in the background when the phone screen is off. Here are the detailed steps. I launch the app for the first time, play a book and it works fine in the background. Then I turn on the phone and pause the book. Turn of the phone. Turn it on again, start the app (which is open in the apps background), start playing the book and it plays ok until the phone screen is off. Whenever I turn the screen on the book continues to play but then freezes when the screen is off. Please fix.Artur_speakingVersion: 1.108

Was a 5 before the updateSince the update there have been many bugs: not being able to press play from the lock screen (nothing happens and I have to open my phone to continue my book) and equally as annoying, I listen to my books at x2 speed and it keeps jumping back to x1 speed on its own all the time. Fix these bugs and it goes back to five for sure..RunningBishopVersion: 1.07

MP3 Audiobook Player Negative Reviews

Free = Ad Supported Crippled DemoDon’t bother getting the free version if you listen to books that are over 12 hours. The app will lock up and demand money to finish. The so called free version of this application is not really a free version. Up front it should be noted that this is truly a crippled demo of the paid version that is ad supported. The inability to finish books over a specific length is ridiculous, as you will watch ads the whole time. This would be equivalent to watching television with commercials then being told you have to pay to watch the last 15 minutes of the program. To the developer, please update in the description right front this is a purposely crippled ad supported app so that people don’t get frustrated when it just locks up. State up front in the storeyou can only listen to 12 hours per book while being forced to watch ads. The app is great, but the way it’s delivered is disingenuous. Ad supported usually means I watch ads but don’t pay but I get most functionality..Dev-RazzVersion: 1.135

It was Excellent, but now it’s ruinedI loved this app, but they added an EQ which even when turned off ruins the sound quality of the books, since changing and the last several updates, it has remained horrible. Ever audiobook now sounds like it was cheaply recorded, the narrator voices now sound hollow, thin, tinny and just down right horrible, I was in the middle of a number of books, which I can’t finish since tragically updating my app🙁 I sure hope they revert to the older version, until then back to the horrible iPhone audiobook app. Old review. iPhone book app continues to get worse and worse, so I am so glad to find this alternative. The app comes up fast and have multiple playing speed options, it remembers my spot and I find it easy to add audiobooks. The only problems I’ve had is a black out freeze, I’ll think my battery completely died, eventually the phone comes back on line though, it is an odd short of app crash, very Rare but it happens occasionally. The other thing is even after leaving a book, and turning on music, if I want to switch a song without fully entering my phone, sometimes iPhone shows the book instead of currently playing song. Restarting the phone is needed to correct this..UthubombVersion: 1.07

Good when working wellFirstly I would like to say that the app when working properly is awesome and I have no complaints on that front. FYI I am running this on an IPhone 6, and I have paid for the app. It is very buggy. Sometimes when playing a book it does not display on the lock screen or react to headphone inputs. Sometimes the app itself does not react to pause/play inputs right away. I have to his pause, play, then pause again and it teleports me back a few minutes in the recording. Right now the playback speed changer is not working at all for me. Also the sleep timer seems to reset randomly. Overall great app, but it needs to fix some bugs..JimGee75Version: 1.99

More bugs every time we have an updateThe sound quality at faster speeds has not been as good since the previous update, and now with the most recent update a few days ago there are more problems. Every time my book goes to the next track it actually skips a track. And, when listening at double speed it will go back to normal speed. Really hard to listen to a book this way since I have to restart the speed each time and try to get to the right track. Plus the sound quality at more than normal speed...really needs to be fixed..Tower luvsVersion: 1.07

Support?I just downloaded and installed free version. I have Dropbox installed. Trying to add audiobook in Dropbox directory to app. Add file indicates it is possible. However, Dropbox does not show up as an option. No apparent way to access. Attempted to use “Contact” option. Entry screen pops up and I filled out. Last field is “Control question”. The control appears to be, no contact allowed. Regardless of the entry, it either responds with an error or “There was an error trying to send your message. Please try again later.”.Farquar1000Version: 1.164

No user set up playlistUsed for several months. Will have to go back to using the “bookmobile” app. Not being able to have a playlist which automatically starts playing the next listed book is a deal breaker. Hard to start another book when I’m power walking m. Doing chores and worse yet, in the sauna with my phone out of the sauna. No playlist makes it difficult to go from one book to the next. Incorporate a user ordered playlist and I’ll use it again. App is inferior to bookmobile for that reason..RjkskiVersion: 1.164

Audiobook playerSomehow I cannot turn the freaking Progam off. Every time I have to stop the player from for whatever reason it goes to the audiobook and I tried to shut it off maybe you’ve got a setting but I can’t see. If I could figure out what that setting is it be a five star program or app but since I can’t thus the two stars I can’t be looking down from the road to make certain I am pushing the right button.ElniñolapintaVersion: 1.144

Upload’s stopped workingI have been using this player for years but all of a sudden the upload functionality over wi-fi stopped working. If i select the “via wifi” option, I get a message saying “wi-fi upload is not available” If I select WebDav, I get (null) where normally the access IP address should be. This has been going on for days now. Needless to say that my wi-fi works fine..Name not taken yet 123321Version: 1.163

Paid for pro, but got forced into free versionI paid for the pro version in 2023, but after that last update getting advertising and notices to pay again. Not impressed..Anonymous 0086Version: 1.171

Still waiting.Reached out to the developer 3 years ago asking for improvements to the file management within the app. His response was to just deal with it. Therefore this app gets one star until the file management is addressed and he can deal with that..LrochonVersion: 1.169

Not worth buyingI purchased this app based on its advertised features, such as the ability to download audiobooks from browsers and directly from YouTube. However, it doesn’t perform these functions consistently. The app is extremely glitchy, and the support team has been unresponsive. I would not recommend buying it..ElmuatazVersion: 1.169

Not sure it worth…Frankly speaking I don’t see any advantages in comparison with default free app. For your money you need monkey around to upload books because it doesn’t work with iTunes as I understood..AlexDeynVersion: 1.169

BEWARE!!!I bought this player. It associated itself with mp4 files. When I double clicked on mp4 video to play it, my Macbook opened this app and the video disappeared from the file system. I lost 3 downloaded videos, they are never to be found..Puch1213Version: 1.164

Perfect DRM-Free Audiobook App*edited May 13 2024 I don’t know what they changed but when I try to upload a book using wifi it crashes. Since I can’t add new books that makes it useless to me. —— It does everything I need: nice clean interface, many ways to transfer files including direct to iPhone, search function makes it easy to find your content, can change the speed of the audio (and it’s pre-EQ and sounds fantastic). Unlike some other apps it always keeps my place and doesn’t randomly restart from the beginning of the audio file. It does everything I need. Bravo!.Sarah SundayVersion: 1.164

Useless on iPadI have dozens of audiobooks and presentations in many different formats. Many are multi chapter files. First, I can’t load anything from the ipad itself. I don’t have a Mac. Second, it doesn’t recognize that one recording can be multiple files. Utterly useless..AnophelesbuzzVersion: 1.146

Updates are a jokes~ update: I lost all the book covers I downloaded and uploaded to the app. I can’t get in with the latest update and if I delete the app and redownload I lose all my mp4, image and setting *cry* how could they?!?!.StarkuraVersion: 1.128

12 hour limit not advertised in descriptionThis is an easy to use app which I have enjoyed. Was very surprised to have the app stop working with the message “play back of 12 hour limit for free app reached” and required to pay to continue to use app. This information should be upfront in the description of the app! Luckily I have not left for a trip expecting to use the app with all my own audiobooks loaded into this app..68ADWVersion: 1.120

Great, but...Latest update seems to have broken it. App fails to load chapters now. Will change review back to 5 when it’s fixed..Jord DrewVersion: 1.118

This is Trialware. Basic function, ok. Overall, not great.The good: Playback and playback controls on the phone work well. Wi-Fi import of audiobooks from your home network works well. Listening to short audio files works well. The bad: this is trialware and cuts off your access to longer length audiobooks. Controls from Bluetooth headsets don’t work well. Controls from Apple Watch barely work at all. Import from cloud source doesn’t work. Resume playback where you left off works most of the time but not all of the time. When you re-launch the app, playback resumes whether you wanted it to or not. Regardless of the settings. What they don’t tell you is that playback is limited to 12 hours. They don’t tell you this before you download and install the app. In some jurisdictions, this is illegal according to contract law. In any jurisdiction, this is just dishonest. The controls and the playback work reasonably well. It resumes where you left off most of the time but not all the time. There is an Apple Watch companion app, but it’s almost useless. Occasionally, it lets you pause or resume playback. But most of the time it just doesn’t. Most disappointing is it’s support for Bluetooth headphones. If your headphones have play pause volume up volume down controls, these don’t work very well. Pausing playback works most of the time. Volume up & down works some of the time. Resuming playback doesn’t work. Importing audiobooks from the cloud location just doesn’t work. It downloads and downloads and downloads and downloads and never ever gets the files. However, the Wi-Fi import works very well. What this app does well is done as well or better by VLC. What is it not well done in VLC is done as bad or worse in this app..UblenkenshupeVersion: 1.108
