Bookmobile Audiobook Player

Unfortunately looks abandoned as it doesn’t accurately store last position anymore on latest versions of iOS.

Was my favorite player but has become buggy in most recent iOS. Biggest bug is that it loses your place and starts over from beginning of certain notifications come in while playing.

I have been using this app since it first came out. It is featured packed and the developer is very responsive to emails. A featured review says it is clumsy but really it is not, the app has so much to offer and that has been well explained in the app intro. The price is a steal given the app has so much to offer.

This app has a great interface and wonderful design but unfortunately, that can't make up for trhe bugginess of the software. The app quite often skips to a random place in the book when it is stopped.

And then it started to misbehave. If I receive a call while it’s playing it will sometimes glitch and have moments of silence every few seconds. The only way to fix it is to re-install the app. Which also means noting your place in the book and re-loading it. And fast forwarding to get back there. Adjustable FF and RW controls, remembers my place even if the app is closed out, works with the bluetooth in my car. I'll be paying the $ for the unlimited version. Nicely done. Update: it even remembered my place after an iOS software update. Nice.

The app has long been abandoned , not sure why it’s in the App Store anymore, it should be removed. I used this in the past because I couldn’t find any other adequate app to import DRM free audiobooks with the crucial bookmark feature. The app will lose your place if you go away from the app. I’m not talking about quitting it, but minimizing it. This is absolutely unacceptable. Additionally, it doesn’t handle multi part books well at all. The app will decide its own sort order no matter what you do. Worst of all- The developer would REFUSE to provide support if the customer left a review that’s less than 5 stars. Who does that? Lastly, the FAQ leads to a 404 page. Apple needs to remove this.

The “resume play bug” is killing me. I pause play, then when I resume it might be at the beginning of the chapter, or it might be several chapters back. How long has this been going on? Quite a while and no fix in sight.

The app is a failure. When I tried alerting the creator they lashed out. They're a joke and their app is a joke.

I have been using this app for years, and would have rated it 5 stars at that time. It is no longer being supported or updated and is now almost unusable. Fast forward and rewind rarely work and it constantly resumes play in the wrong place. 😢

I used to really like this audiobook app. I still like most of its features and find it intuitive. However, the app does not properly start at bookmarked locations when I toggle off/on from the lock screen or using my earbuds. The same problem occurs when rewinding (e.g. 30 seconds); if i rewind from the lock screen it rewinds random amounts of time, clearly not recognizing where i am in the noom. Needing to unlock the phone to control it from within the app, rather than using my earbuds or the lock screen controls, makes it very frustrating to use.
