Wonderful app. If you JUST need an audiobook player that isn't tied to a specific ecosystem like Audible or Google (annoyingly hard to find), this is well worth the asking price. Im so glad I took the plunge on this Edit: went back to audible for a book, and I sorely missed this app. Def my go to audiobook app from now on. Ive listened to 3 different books, and a couple of podcasts on here. All I gotta do is move the files to my phone and im golden.

First off, I've been using the Listen Audiobook Player for years and I love it. Best player out there and I've tried them all. Great job! Now for some suggestions on the few minor things that frustrate me :) 1. Please provide more flexibility in the library list view. Audiobooks can have tags that are needed to easily find the books in large libraries. I would like to be able to a) reduce/change the font size in the list, b) add certain tags to the list view (series, author/artist).

I've used Listen for years. It only gets better. I especially love the sleep timer and being able to nudge my phone to refresh the timer. Other apps I've tried require looking at the screen, pressing the timer to restart, sort of defeats the purpose. My newest wish for the app is to have a setting to close the app (not just pause) when headphones/BT are disconnected.

Hi, there is an option to automatically exit after being paused a configurable amount of time that might work for your needs. It's under Automatic Behaviors | Exit After Pause.

What’s new

• Automatically restart when you play a completed book.
• Added support for "oga" audio format.
• Improvements for resuming downloads.
• Increased max playback speed from 5x to 6x.
• Bug fixes.
