Big Finish: We Love Stories.

Ratings and reviews

1.0.4. Fixes the lack of background audio. Searching and Filtering of the audios is too poor to be usable for my 380+ audios. Playlists are atrocious. I don't know what order they are attempting to sort, but you can't change it, so useless. ADDENDUM: The back end appears to working well now. All my audios seem to be present and correct. Playlists are better, somewhat reflecting the order of addition, but still not sortable or editable.

Unlike the previous app, this shows no more than 30 of your audiobooks at any given point. The ability is browse and choose something to listen to is completely lost. Furthermore, most of your library hasn't migrated from the old app anyway. 70% of all my purchases since 2020 are missing. Sorting and filtering is stuck on purchase date and won't allow otherwise. Playlists completely non-functional. I don't know why they abandoned the previous fully working app for this disaster.

Awful redesign of what was a perfectly fine app. All functionality has been stripped away. Can't even get this onto my Android Auto. So it's become useless. And someone tested this? Signed off on it? If I was BF I'd be asking for my money back. I'm sure I'll get used to it as I have no choice, but initially it's bad. Very bad. I haven't even got all my purchases synced yet. There's no obvious filter by collection anymore which will make finding my regular listens impossible. Sad days.
