Ratings and reviews

I love this app when it works. Unfortunately, I continue to experience glitches over and over again. For awhile it was working perfectly. Now it's back to having issues with the player - certain chapters are supposed to be 20 minutes long, but are then suddenly 56 minutes long. At other times, I suddenly can't skip forward or backward. It often tries to reset to a specific chapter/time stamp when I'm attempting to navigate. I see others have similar issues and am hoping we get an update soon!

I have the paid version to remove ads. I've been using Librivox for years and recently, there have been a few really bad bugs. 1. Audio stops after the section /chapter ends (not related to sleep timer). The time continues, but no audio. 2. Sleep timer often Doesn't work. I set it for 90 minutes and it plays for hours through to the end. 3. Sometimes I'll start a book, usually in the middle, then minimize the app, or lock my screen and the audio stops, and resets to the first chapter. Please fix

Uptd app 10/21/24. RESPONSE, YES, volume turns completely. Great, accept for my junky android phone. Sometimes, the volume doesn't work when I shut the screen off. Not your fault. Have to close the app and open it again. Then it works! Also, doesn't always stop when I set the timer. Or it stops playing, then continues during my constantly barely sleeping nights. I still love the wide variety of choices of podcasts!
