Audiobook Player

After fixing many annoying things thr app has become really praiseworthy. Audio books show all the chapters. It has material design (It can be much better but that's fine for now). Devs if you are reading my comment, please add the dark mode/UI cause I tend to listen to audiobooks before I go to bed!

This app does everything you will want from an audiobook player with no ads and only asks for permission to access your device's storage. My only request would be for the 10 second rewind function to jump to the preceeding audio file in the play list. Currently the function stops at the beginning of the current file. However, everything else appears to be topnotch.

Very nice, clean app. I would request that the sleep function stay enabled instead of turning off after 1 use, so you don't have to go into the app and re-enabale it after pressing play again. If I'm listening to a book at night, I don't want to open a bright app to re-turn on the sleep fiction. I'd rather it play again for the selected sleep time. Other apps have a shake function that plays the audio without having to even wake your phone. But the other apps aren't as pretty as this one! Also smaller tiles or the ability to make them smaller would be great. Displaying more than 2 books across would make searching faster or the option for a list view. I'd definitely pay for it with those 2 tweaks.

Best Audiobook playing app I have found on Android when you want to play your own content. All fundamental capabilities and relatively clean UI. The UI could do with some refinement and follow design standards. Library management is minimal, e.g. doesn't automatically pickup books added to root folder and no cloud import options.

Too buggy to use. Here was my experience. While phone is locked or multitasking, playback often stutters, then jumps to the beginning of the next track. Sometimes does not change playback speed. Gets stuck on a given track and keeps playing it even if you change to a different one. When locked, playback stops after a short while and does not resume until lock button is pressed. Just too buggy to be reliable.

However I did not realise I could swipe up from the random book it selects to choose other books, thank you for this app but I was a bit confused as to how to pick a book. I would prefer if it showed all your book covers in a library. 5 Stars because the developers are really cool

Free with no ads. Variable playback speed, skip ahead or back buttons. Easily set audiobook root folder. Bookmarks, snooze, spot saver, etc. Improvements: remove hideous button sound from play/pause. Display chapter time lengths. Add audio equalizer.

The sleep timer doesn't work as it should. Whatever I set it to, doesn't end the session properly. It will stop, then it resumes within a few seconds. I want it to stop after the timer "stops" it. I have to physically either click the button on my ear buds or in the app itself.

Why don't any of these audio book players work properly they do not link to all folders I have set my individual books in different folders with the books inside but it will only link to one and not the other so it doesn't work

Found many issues with the app: 1. It tends to hang when I get any notification. 2. The rewind button/play button does not work sometimes 3. Sometimes it does not save the last stopped location Uninstalling.

Still somewhat twitchy but it works now. I like this simple but easy-to-operate UI. I hope they keep up improving the app (which it looks...not). How about monetize a little bit?

It's base functionality was good, and for the first few Audiobooks I tried, it worked out quite well. But, on my last book, it all came apart as I discovered that this application only sorts the playback order on track name, and did not support a sort by track number, so the playback was in disarray. And you can't listen to a book in a random chapter sequence.

Great app but I gave it 4 stars because it has a habit of pausing and rewinding randomly. I trouble shot it and the only conclusion is its the app itself. Stopping the app and restarting my phone seems to help. Once fixed, I'll change my review to five stars.

I can't even use this app there is no place to actually listen please fix it as soon as possible then I'll rate it a 5 star if it is good. I was really hoping that this app would not let me down however I was wrong. Sorry

It plays audiobooks but you cannot manage them. You can't even choose which book to play. It does that for you. Meh. You can't even remove an mp3 album that was pulled into the mix. Not recommended.

Pretty buggy... nice features and easy to use voice acceleration but I needed to end tasks to get the app to close. It also had problems automatically pausing when interruptions (like GPS voice) came up.

Some stuttering, I tend to stream the audio to chromecast. Would prefer being able to put all my m4b audio books in the same directory rather than having a directory per file.

I like it. It finds all of your audio books and makes it easy to use. My last player was more difficult to use as I had to manipulate each book before I could use it

This is an amazing audio book app. I have Graphic Audio books and this app is lightyears ahead of their native app. 1. It remembers where you are in EVERY book! Even if you close the app or turn off your phone. 2. It easily lets you jump back (or forward) a few seconds. It does not, however, let you jump to a specific time. 3. Books chapters are made available. Makes it easier to jump around in case you are looking for a particular part of the book. 4. Stops playback for phone calls. 5. Pauses for notification sounds and then begins playback again. It even automatically rewinds a few seconds in order for you to get back on track with what was going on. 6. Bookmarks are available. 7. Play, pause and jump back controls from lock screen. Though, for me, this randomly doesn't work or needs to be pushed twice. The UI took me a bit to understand. 1. I thought thay by choosing a book that I would be taken to a different screen. Instead the book is loaded onto the bottom bar and you can begin playback. 2. When you do navigate to the book screen the chapters are listed below. I thought that you could scroll down to view them. Instead you have to click on them to open the chapters screen. Instead of seeing "Chapter 1", seeing "View chapters" would make this more intuitive. 3. Each book needs its own folder so that books show up independently instead of as 1 huge megabook. 4. All files for the same book should be in the book's root folder, not in subfolders. This allows the player to seamlessly start playing the part 2 file when the part 1 file is over. No need for manual intervention. I think this app is wonderful. I highly recommend it.

It saves my place very well and is easy to skip and rewind. Slight glitch, play from lock screen sometimes dosent work, but that dosent really effect my listening.

Would have been five star of I could delete files from within the app and if it added the new downloaded files automatically. Love the skip forward and skip back AND the auto rewind after notification interruptions.

Simplistic and straightforward. Sometimes the player will keep play but not actual make any sounds. Also it sometimes forgets where I am while I'm listening. Overall thought its pretty good.

Best M4B support I've seen. Only issue is that the app assumes audiobook title is the directory the file resides in. For M4B files title should come from the file's tags, not the directory it is in. Integrating support for Librevox would be awesome too!

It performs well. However, I've experienced a couple of issues; 1. Chapter files will sometimes load/play out of order. 2. After finishing one book the app wouldn't "let go" of the book- continuing to display and attempt to play the title, even after repeated attempts to re-scan/re-set. the root folder.

I really was looking forward to trying this app out, but I couldn't get it to let me select the audio book I wanted to listen to in a folder. It latched onto one book and wouldn't let me change it.

It's a bit different than what I was used to, but once I found out how to use the features I needed, I have no complaints.

The app is great, simple, functional and the design is great. However, it sometimes stops out of nowhere and stutters a little when I pause/resume play.

Excellently made app! Easily reads files and switches in order. One problem is issues with some jpeg images.

Nearly perfect. Only missing features: time remaining on lock screen widget, better id3 display.

The best audiobook player by far. The user interface could get a cleaner Material Design though (especially the play and skip buttons).

It keeps forgetting where I left off, especially if another app pauses the book. I then have to search manually to find a point from which to continue. Please fix this, it's really annoying and inconvenient.

It jumps all over the place. Will randomly stop playing and bookmarks keep getting cleared or get dropped in the wrong spot. Difficult to refinance your place.

There's no feedback option within the app. The app is prone to stopping, which others do also, but this app loses its place within the book. So when I press play on my headphones it is in the wrong place.

After install it won't let me set the root folder on account of screen overlay (why?). When disabled still claims it's on and refuses to do anything

If it only didnt stop unexpectedly during work, it would br solid 5. Till then, just 4.

I hate this app when you first get on it you can't do any thing

Works like a charm, even better now with sleep time and bookmarks!

Just listened to a book on this app had no issues Will use again

I really enjoy the app but occasionally it won't let me play when the screen is locked and the sleep timer has no way of stopping it if you want to keep listening

This app is great especially for long audio books. With the bookmark capability, ability to switch between books without losing your place, and a sleep timer. It's exactly what I needed.
