Contact Audiobooks Support

I’ve been a dedicated Audiobooks listener for around 10 years. Every now and then the app will get bogged down and it will need to be rebooted, usually because I’ve downloaded way too many titles.

Well I just rebooted the app and OMG what a huge disappointment.

The app is designed by people who ether don’t use it or, I don’t know what. You can’t bounce around from download titles to library and so forth, you are unable to dim the brightness, the volume is no longer on the app. You could no longer...

Now a maximum of FIVE titles can be downloaded. Many titles are very short, poetry or children’s books for example. So if you want to, let’s say spend the day driving you are out of luck.

I suspect that this is about $ because with the new app adds pop up a LOT, way more than on the old app.

I could go on but you get my drift. I will check in periodically and see if some of the issues have been rectified. Normally, if I found a new app and it wasn’t set up better then this I would never return, but I feel loyalty towards Audiobooks because of the very many hours of pleasure it has brought to me over the years.

I used to like this app and use it frequently. I just got an iPhone 12 However and the advertisement that comes up before you can listen is not closable. The “X” to close the ad is way up in the left-hand corner near the time display which cannot be hit on an iPhone 12. Therefore I cannot get past the advertisement which is full screen. Thus making the app completely useless unless I pay for the non-advertisement version. Please fix this!

This is a nice app for listening to a wide collection of free books, seem to mostly be from LibriVox so you’re not always guaranteed a professional grade reader/production. But, generally acceptable.

I gave this three stars because the app won’t remember your location in the book/chapter, even if you have downloaded the book. So, every time you close and reopen the app, you have to navigate back to somewhere close to where you left off. And, if you haven’t downloaded the book, you will have to go find it again. Kinda negates the whole point of having a streamed audiobook if I have to keep searching back for where I was listening.
