The best

The best audiobook and podcast player keeps me safe when driving


Pointless

All this app does is take you to a site where you can purchase a audiobook, such as iTunes. I can do that myself. A waste; don't bother.


Better than the iOS player

A wanna be DJ

The iOS's audiobook player is an inferior app and its performance is of the sort that you'd expect to find it on the Android platform built by a novice programmer/book enthusiast with a few hours to spare for its design and Apple should be ashamed of its poor attempt and should look into incorporating this app into its iOS software as it did with Siri.. You can add audiobooks in multiple ways but the one I find most useful is being able to use iCloud to import my files which isn't (to my knowledge) possible with Apples own audiobook app which for the lack of a better word is just DUMB.. To the folks behind this app ????are#☝️ To Apples audiobook app ?‍♂️ ???'s and I just don't ? it's ?ness..!


I love this app!

Bookmobile is my favorite app to listen to audiobooks and podcasts. This app is a breeze to use. It's got all the features I need in an audiobook/podcast app (ability to speed up the audio, download directly from my computer, search for popular podcasts, etc). Definitely worth the in-app purchase price.


Used to be the best on iOS

Was great, but it cannot keep its place. At least a few times a day it will ignore the last 15, 20, or 45 minutes after a pause, forcing you to go back and search for your place manually. This app is functionally useless about 10% of the time, which is extremely frustrating, but it technically works and has a great interface. That's why 2 stars instead of 1. This has been true on iOS 8, 9, and now 10. My glowing review from iOS 7 days is no longer applicable. Fix it!


USED TO BE Audio Book Heaven!!!??

I love my iPhone but I hate iTunes - especially for audio books. This app only requires you to open iTunes, not deal with it. I can download books from the library, save them, and then transfer them over. I will never go back to the iTunes way of compiling audio books. Going from 5 stars to 1 (would be 0 I'd that were an option). The app cannot keep its place often losing several minutes on restart. When this happens in the car (on Bluetooth), I'm forced to adjust it manually which in my opinion in similar to texting while driving WHICH I NEVER DO! Also, since the last update, the player has a tendency to start playing on its own even though I've never used the auto start at launch feature. I've corresponded with developer multiple times but so far, nothing has changed and I'm now going with a different player app altogether.


Great Audiobook Player

Does just what I was hoping for, that so many other apps get wrong: organize, consolidate, play, and remember where I left off. Works well in the background while using other apps like Runkeeper or Waze. I use it daily for the last couple years.


Initial Review

TommyNorthAL

I've been very impressed with this app, it seems much more reliable than iBooks. I figured out to import a file (not use iTunes library, import file from the computer) with iTunes you need to do one at a time. Also, import using computer iTunes app data, don't just use files already on iPhone, that doesn't work as well and I think is when it can lose your place because it's still entangled with iBooks (which is very unreliable).


Great app

Bookish nut

Great app especially for listening to podcasts while driving
