About this app

LibriVox Audio Books offers unlimited access to 40,000 free audio books. Each book can be streamed over the internet or downloaded for later use without any charge. The LibriVox Audio Books app includes listings for new recordings, featuring classic best sellers and out of print treasures.

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

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 😁

Very nice audio-only book reader. Ads are a little annoying, but the $2.99 price for the no-ads version is a great value. Only offers books already in the public domain, and the reader and recording quality varies between books (and sometimes between sections of a book). Librivox has a decent selection of non-English-language book readings, and I find hearing a variety of voices, accents, and reading styles and speed helps with my language learning efforts. Recommended!

This is a much better UI/UX than the Librivox website (which is nearly unusable.) That doesn't make it good. The advertisement boxes frequently are obviously misplaced (as in: clearly not placed where intended), typefaces are often unreadbly small, among other user experience faults (visually impaired people: does it play nice with your accessibility apps?) Devs: It's well past time for a UI/UX update. And a privacy-oriented review of your advertisers.
