The best tool for the job! The only feature I wish it had that it doesn't is a way to access home servers to stream audiobooks, I have a large collection on my computer that I use as a media server and have to remember which audiobooks I have transferred to my phone when I take a trip, however this may just be an Android issue as Android makes that difficult in the first place. Also the casting can be a little spotty at times, but honestly those are small, nit-picky problems.

Not sure how else to reply to your response, so I'm responding here. I've switched from the "App1" to the "App2" If that doesn't clear the battery use issue, I'll try the "System" I'm not sure what happened, but this app is burning through 30% of my battery despite only having 9 minutes of screen time. The background process is drawing this even when nothing is playing. Anyone know why this is so? Otherwise, a good interface. I wish that it didn't tack all the M4B files up into one book, too.

Please try to change Decoder in:
Settings--Troubleshooting--Decoder.
And please put each m4b book into a separate folder.
Thank you!

This seems to be the best Audiobook manager and player, but still super disappointing in 1 major respect. It doesn't read the metadata in m4b files... Which means, it doesn't load album art which is already there, or genres, or any of the other sorting fields. Instead, I have to manually click on every single audiobook, manually type every book, and search for images... When the data is already there!?
