Ratings and reviews

the last review I wrote was for a different car. and now driving a Tesla 2026 model y. so far the app is very good. however when I first get in the car in the morning, I have to activate the app on my phone to make the Bluetooth connection. otherwise if I get back on the car after even a few hours away from the material turn the Bluetooth connection seems to reset itself and I can just press the controls on a Tesla screen without having to turn on the app.

Update - still absolutely the best. One of those apps that just works, day in day out. It plays audiobooks clearly and accurately, lets you pause them and make bookmarks, doesn't lose your place, and even has a history of other books so you can resume anywhere in your audio book library and listen to multiple books at once. the free version does almost everything I need and had no ads - but I bought the pro version both to support it and because I wanted an equalizer :)

Best audio book player I've ever used. In fact, it's only 1 of 3 apps I've ever paid for from the playstore. You can alter skip distance and it has the most intuitive resume for multiple books. Also, great access to the Android file system, including deleting files. No ads either, even in the free version, although the speed up function is totally worth the price.
