Audiobooks for Android
This application by default downloads the whole book when you start to listen it, even if it is was 10 seconds of the first chapter. How can you do that without a single warning?! All my month data allowance was wasted for you. Thank you!!
This is a great app. I use it all the time. This new update makes it easier to use. I highly recommend this app.
The new fixes are great! Starts where i left off and has a great selection
Concept and implementation give it an extra star. It's the equivalent of going to a comedy club on open mic night. Good for casual user.
It's public, so not surprised of its quality.
So much more user friendly and interesting to use.
Great app! Mostly public domain books
Doesn't even work
It has 0 books that I like
That it has free download
Horrible books
Hello
It's hard to give this under 5 stars, so many Free books! Amazing and I love it. But, it often stops on a book I'm listening to. Keeps just completely stops then when I Open the app back up it starts over at the beginning of the chapter. I don't know if this happens on all books or just the one I'm listening too. The Way of Peace
Simple and easy to use, great for someone like me who doesn't have time to read and do other things all at the same time. Just a few changes would be nice, such as a bookmark feature, chapter names, and perhaps more consistent readers. It would be nice to have just one reader for every book, (eg.Sherlock Holmes and Oddessy have only one reader for the most part)
The player needs a little developement. It doesent remember where you were last time you stopped the player. a bookmark feature would be nice, so you can browse other books before you fininsh the one you are reading. The player needs the ability to play other books on your phone, so we dont need two different players. 4 stars for now, if the player got a huge makeover definitely top grade. The concept is AWESOME
Loved this app, but when listening in the car on my phone it seems to need to download at the start of each chapter even though I've downloaded the whole book on wifi at home. Not sure why it needs to do this, and it uses a huge amount of data - 80 mb in one day! If I turn the data connection off it just freezes. Please fix, I want to carry on using it but can't afford to use so much data.
If you think science fiction novels are good you'd better check out sci-fi short stories. With less predictable plots and zanier premises, they will rock you! Tons of odd stuff on here too, the "surprise me" feature really lives up to its name. From antiquity to recently declassified, it's sure to keep you guessing.
I love love love it!! It's doesnt turn off when mi screen turns off, its nice an loud even at volume 2 for a phone and its very easy to find a book to listen too. Two things bad about it tho, it wood be better to have different sections- children, teen, adults. And if it wos all the same person, didn't bother me too much but just a suggetion.
I really like this app, and used to use it on the iOS. That system offers an upgraded paid for Plus version, that I would be fully willing to pay for again. It has a 30 second skip forward or back, it will keep your place in the middle of the chapter, the sleep timer offers stopping at the end of a chapter instead of just a time limit, and you can change the screen color. On this particular version I can't even figure out how to delete a book from my library when I am done. Please upgrade this one!
I have this app and dont.use it as much as I use to ,because I use Librivox more today than before. But had no.trouble.with it and like the the coverage on the narrators because for me it has slot to do if I will check certain books out. Gave it five stars because of overall performance book selections authors and narrators and the hours of enjoyment it brings. If you enjoy the old books or just want to go back.and enjoy the past in literature give it a try

I'd like it better if I didn't have to have my WiFi on just to start a book I already downloaded one to six chapters of
This is a great app. I use it all the time. This new update makes it easier to use. I highly recommend this app.
Worked much better on my iPhone. Doesn't resume book where I left off (Huawei p8 lite)
Thank you so much for updating the app. Works great again.
I recommends this app I've been using it for a long while .
This app only offers a selection of Librivox books. Authors are listed after their first name like "John". Ridiculous. Very slow. No possibility to decide, where to save the downloaded books. All in all an amateur app. Staying with "Librivox" and as a paid app with "Audible". This app offers nothing special.
I used it on my Android phone and was happy for many years. After the last update thete is no option to download only over wi fi and the download does not really work at all. Looks like it downloads the story but it is only live stream. Once you download a story, if you cut the data and the wi fi the app will not play the story already ( supposed) downloaded. It requires internet to work so I don't understand why I have the option to download the story!? Before I could download under wi fi and listen.
Helps me understand the importance of the story and visualize it more
Good
Search function doesn't work
I really really love this app. I listen to it every night it helps me fall asleep expecially the history side but I am having a problem with downloading a new book to listen to???? Please assist none of the books in the mythology and legends section aren't downloading...
I like this app, but I would like to know is there an option to choose where to save an audio book. I would like to save it on my memory card, but I can't find any similar option... Can someone help me please?
Sadly has stopped working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times but to no avail. Will have to find another app .
It is very easy to use. Still the best audio app. The poor readers aren't this app they are the librivox readers SOME OF WHO'M completely ruin a good book. Just TRY and listen to all the different readers of Casanova
I love this app and use it all the time. The only reason I gave 4 out of 5 stars is because to make it stop running on my android, I have to force quit.
All it shows is a black screen when I search for a book it's dumb gonna download another app that is better
If I could rate this less than one star I would! Appalling narration from a dreadful Australian woman (for a Western Story ... wtf??) you can hear her false teeth moving, zero inflection or intonation (surely a must have??!) Was she a friend/mother of the app maker?! What could have been a fab story was utterly trashed by this god awful bore - time to give up your day job! I hated her rendition of this so much I can't even contemplate listening to any of the other books in case she is also narrating those.
Go to My Library. Go to your phone's menu. (My samsung 5's menu button is on the bottom left of my phone [extended press]) press the phones menu, [edit] touch the book you will delete. Poof, it's gone. Bookmarks used to work. Maybe the programmer left the program. I hope he returns & fixes the bookmark. His website is down.

This app's performance has changed since 2014. It frequently stops working and freezes. I just downgraded it to a 3 from a 5. Not sure what's changed in 3 years. I still like it alot compared to other audio book apps and would like to see it fixed.
