Pros and cons of Audiobooks app for iPhone and iPad
Audiobooks app good for
This app opens a door to an amazing library of literary works that are free to download. This app has helped me from stressing over the commute every day and has opened my mind to many wonderful works of literature. You will not be disappointed!
Ive learned so much listening to some of these Audiobooks while commuting and working out!
Thank you so much. This app has become a close friend, allergic to paper and struggling with fading eyesight. To all the volunteers, you have my deep heartfelt gratitude. To the creators of this app, you are doing a great job and again, my deep gratitude. The app works very well.
I enjoy listening to Audiobooks and this is a great app for listening to the classics. As stated in the app most of the books are read by volunteers. However, you can purchase some professional versions of the Audiobooks.
I wish that the readers were vetted to weed out the less than adequate ones.
Ive listened to many free Audiobooks online from countless sources and this app consistently and reliably delivers a good read/ performance. Have recommended it to many.

Some bad moments
No books show up and you dont know where they are being downloaded.
This app is amazing and not confusing at all!! Unless youre a Harry Potter fan! then youll be confused on why they dont have Harry Potter! I love the app but it doesnt have Harry Potter and thats just messed up! so to the app creators you really need to add Harry Potter! so i recommend this app to everyone..UNLESS YOURE A HARRY POTTER LOVER!! Then dont download this!!
The "top-to-bottom" update, mentioned in the version history, of this app was a completely new app. If you have purchased anything from the old app (the book with headphones) they will not transfer to this app (the book with play button). Thus, you may be required to purchase them again. Im currently working with the company to get these purchases transferred to this newer app with the same name.
The menu before was very easy to maneuver. You could go from playing it back to your library easily now all the buttons are jammed at the bottom in a soon as you click on preview the book immediately starts to play. Looks like they want to upgrade it, and got someone to do it cheaply.
I can only download 1 chapter at a time. Very disappointed. Like the old version better.
Your selection of books are so little and in terms of languages when you have languages that considered the fifth spoken language in the world over 500 million people speaks the language ( Arabic ) not one title to offer on your list ,yet there is titles in other languages the most people can speak the language is less then 30 million people is this app biased by design? Or is it lack of knowledge of literature and history when you try to ignore a language that has 2 million word by 42 million definition I just wonder!!!!!
