Audiobooks HQ - audio books Reviews

AudiobooksHQ has already supplied me with several free books that I have listened to. I went straight to the section that was for free books and jumped right in. The downloads come faster than from Audible. I have liked the readers. The only problem is that it is difficult to find some books directly through a search. It can take a while to get to the book or author you are interested in. On the other hand, you scroll by things you might not have thought to look for and discover pleasant surprises. This is good for me as otherwise I can get in a rut.

My eyesight is so I can no longer read books in print
And I can find interesting quality books on AudiobooksHQ that are very pleasing
Depending on which genre that I am in the mood for listening I can find so many different books to choose...and without the cost

Love that the books are free and so easy to listen, plus download if I want to keep them in my library to listen when I don't have internet access!

I was very excited when I downloaded AudiobooksHQ, because everywhere I looked it said “free” audiobooks. That is most certainly not the case. Every audiobook that I was interested in was either “unavailable” OR they tried to CHARGE me $17 for! That is not “free”. They make it sound as if the vast majority of the audiobooks that they have available are free but they are definitely not. There is no way that I’m keeping AudiobooksHQ and I would recommend that you don’t even bother with it either. I’ve had it with all these audiobook apps pretending that they are free and then the only free audiobooks they have available are duds that I’ve never even heard of. I’ll stick with Hoopla and Overdrive, thank you. If I could rate this lower than one star, I would.

So, I think this would be a good app if the books didn’t look/sound so... “old”? I mean, they’re not old, but to me they are. I’m a pre-teen and I was wondering if u could put more books people my age would read. Like, books you would find in a middle school library. Like wrinkle in time, or wonder. Not all of us are adults, you know. THINK OF THE CHILDREN! (lol) thx! I’ve been looking for audiobook app that didn’t require a library card or money, and I finally found one. AudiobooksHQ! I downloaded this, but all the books were “old”! Rrrr! Plz plzplzplzplzplzplzplzplzplzzzzz give us books people around my age would read!

Whether it’s user error or not my credit card is already on file for a suppose it free trial I have already made a 5.99 purchase and can’t find the purchase or cannot make the selection for the two free books supposedly offered. Who can tell me how to discontinue this and remove my information including my credit card

I can’t believe I paid $20 for an audiobook that downloaded all as one track instead of in chapters (which, via my library’s app, this same audiobook IS in chapter segments) AND it doesn’t auto save my spot. Because, who doesn’t love trying to find your place in a 12 hour track by random scrolling or bumping forward in thirty seconds segments?

I like that you can purchase a single audiobook without a subscription. That’s the only good thing I can find about AudiobooksHQ. Even the search tool to find the book I wanted sucked. I should have heeded that red flag.

Of the hundreds of apps on my phone, this is the one I use most often. This wasn’t always the case but I find myself in a better mental disposition now that I’ve mostly eliminated social media and MSM, returning to music and venturing into the audiobook realm. There are lots of free selections along with the library of books to purchase.

I love this little app which offers many variety of audible stories. It takes me back in time when television was not very popular
The dramatization are so perfectly arranged its just like sitting in a movie theater and watching the movie only it's more exciting because your imagination is running much wilder. I highly recommend AudiobooksHQ.

There are many classic titles, and even some more contemporary works, but lots of free audiobooks! Several titles have multiple versions, so make sure to listen to the previews to find the reading styles that best suit your fancy. This is a great resource for those who like audiobooks, or wish to listen along while reading.

I love AudiobooksHQ there is just not a lot to read and I’m a pre teen so the things I mostly listen to are like the horror stuff because I’ve used AudiobooksHQ before and the story I choose was kinda boring I read this other review and this pre teen also said they wish there were more options for younger groups and I agree

I’ve noticed lately that audio book apps will say they’re fee when in fact they are not. There may be a few, possibly twenty at the most of really old books (not even classics) for free. And the rest of AudiobooksHQ is simply trying to get you to buy and or pay for the books you’re actually looking for.

This is one of those apps.

I come back to AudiobooksHQ once or twice a year and each time I regret it. AudiobooksHQ is slow, it takes a while to load and it glitches, (thanks to it being a free app you also will get ads). Ugh, but AudiobooksHQ doesn’t even have a free section! It’s free radio or books being read live. And any book you’re actually looking for to listen to you have to pay for (or truthfully any book on this god forsaken app)

I HIGHLY do not recommend AudiobooksHQ, it’s a lie. Don’t waste your money on getting the premium one either.

Search features are great, downloads work well, it's easy to navigate and it makes keeping and listening to audiobooks easy. But for some reason AudiobooksHQ just eats through battery, I've checked all my settings, and closed all other apps but my phone ends up hot and only gains charge/cools off if I close AudiobooksHQ . Plz fix!!

AudiobooksHQ has a lot to offer, love the old time radio, very nostalgic and makes you think. You do not see (or should I say “hear” ) radio shows like the ones they have on here anymore. But the other books are very good too especially when on a long drive.

I love AudiobooksHQ! I'm lucky enough to have a job that lets me wear headphones and this is an essential app for me to pass the time. The podiobooks as they are called offer a larger selection than just old, out of copyright books. AudiobooksHQ hasn't glitched on me yet and I'm really happy with its performance. Thanks Audiobooks 👍

While this has a very wide selection of books and great recordings, when you close AudiobooksHQ it usually doesn’t remember your place, which is frustrating when listening to a very long book over a period of time. Also, AudiobooksHQ takes a long time to start up, and sometimes when you hit play, nothing happens. Lastly, occasionally when trying to find your place in the boon, the recording will just reset.

Would have liked an actual step-by-step practical guide rather than just a bunch of individual stories, many of which I could not relate to, followed by takeaways. It’s like a series of Ted Talks on the topic with each person recounting their experience. Every person is different so listening to their stories was interesting and inspiring but not much helpful for me with the nuts and bolts of my own plan. And some of them I found rather preachy and obnoxious. Found myself rolling my eyes at a few points.

AudiobooksHQ is great and provides me with hours of free audiobooks (some good, some not so much)
My main problem is the button(+) to add more books sits right on top of the last book you have. So in order to listen to that book you either have to mess with the 3 sorting options of delete enough books to get it raise up above the (+) button.

I had never read "David Copperfield" by Charles Dickens so I decided to listen to the audiobook. The voice of the narrator is perfect and I have enjoyed the voices he has given to all of the characters. David's innocence and kind heart have reminded me of the goodness which lies in humanity and that goodness can triumph over evil. Thank you for this special audiobook.

I got a little anxious in the middle... wanting the story to move along. However the reader helped keep my attention until things picked up again. Overall this was a very good listening experience.

The book I listen to Bill Nye and wet wasn’t exactly what I thought it was going to Bay. But it was it was good enough. It was kind of odd having each chapter of being read by a different person. You can definitely figure out which Arthur’s you like and which Arthur’s or not your favorite.

I have been listening to quality, free books through this LibraVox app for at least 6 months. It’s outstanding! I love to read, but don’t have time to sit and read. I love being able to listen to books while completing tasks that are necessary, but don’t require a lot of thought: weeding, cleaning, sanding, painting, etc. Thank you for this awesome app!!

I love being able to scroll through the books I always find books I’ve never heard of and enjoy. Just like being in the library shelves.

I wish the search was more powerful and I like to get notifications when authors I’m interested in have a new book posted.
