Ratings and reviews

A really good app that has access to a lot of great media. My biggest problem is that anytime you leave the app and come back it has to reload the entire app even if you ever still actively running. Which takes only a few seconds but I feel like it's unnecessary second is every single time you leave and come back to the app. It has less of a selection than Libby, however, you have access to it always which is great. All in all a very good app for listening to audiobooks.

A great way to listen to audio books. The app generally keeps the place you stopped, but you can also bookmark your location. The catalog is somewhat robust, but some titles are missing from some series. The catalog tends more to recent publications and some older, but still classic books are not available. There is also a robust collection of graphic novels and comics andovies, mostly of more recent vintage. Overall, a great experience, but I can't figure out downloads so you will use up data.

Edit 2024: audio skips on a OnePlus device when speed set above 1x. Seems to be something people h been complaining about for years. Woah! That's pretty shoddy support for an important feature. Short of support for Android Auto (like Libby) and the ability to sort my backlog by date added rather than alphabetically, this has all of the features I want in an audiobook app! The updates through 2019 have been great. I don't use the app for books, music, or movies, but I'm sure it works great.
