Ratings and reviews

I've been listening to Librivox since the 00's, love it. The app is ok. The search is not the best. I find that trying a lot of keywords is the best. So, instead of searching for history, using a country name like Poland or Serbia yields better results than Eastern European history. But it's a free collaborative effort, and there's a lot of material most people would never encounter exceptin this format. I would suggest buying the app if you use it. The ads are invasive.

An update. better over time. I do really appreciate this app. go to sleep listening to. ll the Scribl titles have long dead spots and the time stamps are wrong. I can fast forward, and end up hearing parts from earlier. Also, some weird things like starting at the same spot when it should have advanced, or shutting off when I lock the phone screen. At least it is cheap, but it is also frustrating. At the end of each chapter is 40 minutes of "dead space" unless I manually advance the chapter.

Great app with a good variety of readers to choose from I love that I rediscovered LibriVox in app form and don't have to download via web each book I listen to. I had issues playing some books but that has since been corrected and all is good now. Now excuse me, I gotta go listen to some classics and maybe a new book or two.
