Ratings and reviews

Changed rating from 5⭐ to 1⭐. Latest update is NOT user friendly! I want mention all the issues with the latest update, since it has already been written about by others many times. If something isn't done soon, I for one will be unsubscribing. Continuing issue, Audible turns ITSELF on when disconnecting Bluetooth devices. Without being prompt and with that setting turned OFF. This is despite the fact it was never turned on that day or even that week at all. Just all by itself, it starts playing

I love audio books, and Audible's app is easy to use. I have had to drop my rating by 2 stars as a new "feature" is proving to be an intractable annoyance. They have started adding "sample" ads at the end of every book if I don't have a play next option selected. This is a problem overnight when a new book will wake me and silence would be better, and VERY distracting when I drive. I just don't need samples and there is no way, apparently, to disable. I've been on the phone to fix many times.

I love being able to listen to my Audible app anywhere at any time on my phone. My only complaint is that after a recent, within the last 6 months, I've had multiple download issues. I've followed the faq suggestions with no improvement. I would also like the option of a complete library of available titles, in the regular library and the plus library, without employing the algorithm with its limited offerings.
