Audiobook & Podcast Player App Reviews

78 add

No mp3 support

Doesnt work on audiobooks unless theyre purchased from Apple.

Okay, but no chapter listings or support.

This app does slightly better at playing audiobooks than the new iOS 7 music player, but offers no support for going to the next chapter, nor for seeing / selecting chapters by name. So far the best Ive found for non-DRM audiobook support is Bookmobile.

No support for iPhone 5S Display!!!

Decent app but for heavens sake please give us full screen support for the iPhone 5S. Also very much dislike in app purchasing. The ability to just buy the app upfront is much preferred.

Wont play all types of audio

Wont play everything on your device. Only podcasts and audio designated as audiobooks.

Very Good app but no bookmark!!!

I really like this app. Pros: $loads audiobooks from anywhere $Playback buttons $Fast play $Visually appealing $Potcast also enable Cons: -NO BOOKMARKS this is a big no, no, for me. Please get multiple bookmarks in next update. -no search of title -no sorting Overall its v.good but needs improvement. (Bookmarks) Thanks for reading. Please you too ask for the bookmarks.

Does not see audiobooks in my library

Seems good for music though

Missing bookmark function

Really wish it had a bookmark function, that would make this app 5 stars all the way. Please consider adding a bookmark function, it makes a world of difference to us audiobook lovers! Do not like the fact that it sneaks in saying you have to pay though, should be up front about costs and not have so many interruptions.

Easy to FF,Rew

Makes it so easy to find your spot in the audiobook. Also got a sleep function.

Working on iPod 5 generation

Working real well on my iPod third-generation but didnt work at all on my fifth generation iPod loved it on my old iPod hate it on my new one

Doesnt work with iOS 8.

Whats to say?

Not compatible with iOS 8 Hold out slim to no hope a fix is forthcoming, however. The last update was ~ 3 yrs ago. Was fun while it lasted...

A Great App!

I downloaded this app a few weeks ago, and I absolutely love it! It works great, and always keeps my place, easy to use, and designed very user friendly. Thank you or making this app--I cant believe its free!

Frustrating

While yes its slightly better than the BS Apple is putting me through with audiobooks and podcasts it basically plays what it wants not what i select on the list. Deleting it in search of something reliable

Does not auto bookmark

Tired of this app not remembering where I left off. Useless without this feature.

Really like this app, not working right currently

I blame Apple for moving audiobooks to iBooks on the iPhone. Now Audiobooks, which is a simple and elegant player, cant keep track of the place in the book. Im looking forward to the developers fixing this issue and changing my rating to 5 stars.

Amazon audible crashed my iPhone 6 plus

Got a black screen. Customer support helped me get my phone working but could not assure me that it would not happen again. I had to delete the app & I am afraid to reinstall. Customer support said they would get back to me.

Please Update This App!!!

This was my go-to audiobook app until Apple came out with iOS 8. It worked great, though it would sometimes forget my place, and sometimes cut off the last few seconds of audio tracks. The big advantage this app has is that even if you lose your place, the controls allow you to skip forward or back 10 minutes, 1 minute or 10 seconds, which is way better than the 15 seconds Apple allows allowing you to go back just a little if you miss a few words, or more if you miss a whole chapter. Then, once Apple moved audiobooks into the iBooks app, this app stopped working right. It would only play one track from the book for some reason. Ive tried it several times, but apparently theyre not updating it. Please fix this app-- it was great!

So far, so good

There are so many awful audiobook players out there for iPhone that it is easy to get frustrated. Have been using this one for a couple of hours and it seems very, very good. Heres hoping it stays that way! Nice gui, easy to access, and best of all, it automatically finds books downloaded from iTunes.
