The LibriVox audio book app makes it easy to find the book you want. You can see the most popular books, browse by title, author or genre, look at new recordings, or search by keyword. You can even find books read by a favorite narrator. This app allows you to stop playback with a sleep timer, and unlimited bookmarks are available for each book. You can save and listen to as many books as you like. Access to the LibriVox collection, thousands of old time radio dramas, and many other collections is entirely free.

With full support for bluetooth controls as well as Android Auto and Google Cast, LibriVox Audio Books makes it easy to take your books with you wherever you go. Lists of favorites, recent books, and downloaded books make it easy to pick back up just where you left off.

Audio books from LibriVox are free thanks to the dedicated work of hundreds of volunteers who record, edit and distribute the books. New releases are prepared daily, and the entire catalog spans the breadth of world literature, including novels, history, biography, short stories, poetry and more in both fiction and non-fiction.

Ratings and reviews

This app is far more reliable than most, and I appreciate that. I GREATLY miss being able to choose the time I want it to stop playing. It is inconvenient and very annoying to now only have a few set increments. Please, bring back the ability to choose minutes/hours! When scrolling through favourites, if you click on one, to check it, then go back to favourites, the list scrolls itself back to the beginning, so you have to scroll forward to find where you were - quite tedious and frustrating!

A good application, HOWEVER... The app is very limited in voice options. It would be nice to have a selection of three or 4 readers to choose from to read, as some readers' voices seem to "read me to sleep." Another poor design feature of the application is the lack of continuous reading abilities. The fact that the app doesn't remember where you last stopped listening. So, each time you have to navigate to the start of the last chapter you've read. It's very annoying. Please add that ability.

LibriVox is a great place to find older books read aloud! My favorite are the ones read by Elizabeth Klett. I would recommend this app to anyone, a highly satisfactory experience. The only thing I would change is the interface, no offense but it's a little ugly, haha. It's probably both the color scheme and the layout, for some reason it's just not very classy, couldn't exactly tell you why 😁
