If these are sappose to be audibles you sure can’t play them only buy them. That’s not an audible. You should change the name of this app.

I had to download the book and move it to a different app as I had constant issues losing where I was in the book after various interruptions (phone calls etc) . Keeping constant and exact location of the book is an extrely important feature this app struggles to get right.

Great App!

I use this app everyday. I love that they have sales often. I have enjoyed many different types of books. I can’t imagine getting through my week without the app.

I really enjoy the app, only problem I have had is getting supplements that some books offered.

Needs work

First of all, buyer beware; you have to buy your books in a browser and not the app to get the advertised prices. If you try to buy them in the app, then they have to pay apple some surcharge, and the price to us is much higher, too. Second of all, the app is completely useless if you need to know the time remaining in a book, or if you need to jump forward or back without dropping everything and picking up your phone and looking at it — or waking up to look at it (many of us listen to audiobooks to rest or sleep) They seem to think that the only thing that matters is the chapter remaining time! (Speaking for myself, if I could only have one, the time remaining in the book is much more important to me) They added a “total time remaining” but it just gives the negative of the elapsed chapter time! If I turned that in, I would get an F. I love the service, and i love that they don’t have all the useless crap that always gets in the way that amazon shoved into the audible app, so audiobooksnow’s interface is much better than amazon’s. But who on earth thought that oversaturated white and red was a good idea? (You could take a page from Hulu’s book; their app redesign when they added live service was almost universally panned for being too glaringly bright and cartoonish and obscuring their actual content, so they redid it. And instead of sticking to the hideous theme colors they had, they shifted them slightly to better versions and used them as accents.) If the “audio book playing” screen had swipe left or right to jump back or forward some number of seconds programmable in settings, and swipe up or down to raise or lower volume, that would add fantastic functionality to the app.

I love audiobooks now listen everyday prices are reasonable Librafy large

Legend of Sleepy Hollow read by Bob Neufeld

So warm

What I like about this app is that it has a “sleep” timer on it. I love listening to readings of good books before I fall asleep. It’s actually a sleep aid for me. I set the timer to 30 minutes and I’m usually asleep in 10. Bob Neufeld reads The Legend of Sleepy Hollow so well.

Outlander upset

Susie&Jim

I subscribe because I wanted to listen to the outlander series and once I clicked in found that Outlander isn’t on the list!! I’m not just disappointed I’m angry!!!

Used to work

I downloaded and used audiobooks now without a problem maybe two years ago. I since upgraded from nook to iPad and I wish this app actually worked. I get two sentences out if it before it stops and have to hit the arrow to make it start again. I’ve tried both download option as well as streaming- neither operates correctly. Too bad I purchased the books as I am unable to listen to them.
