## Bound Reviews in Australia

### ***-- "This WAS great app"
I have been using this app for years and to start with I use to put my audiobooks on google drive and download them to this app as it was supported. Then they said that wasn’t supported anymore so I switched over to OneDrive as that was still supported by this app (I should also mention I paid for cloud service on both of these providers so it’s been annoying and expensive to change over) but now even though I can still go into my files on one drive through this app is always says there are no files in the folders even though I can see the audio files when I look on my computer or through the one drive app. What the heck is going on, it’s super frustrating and until they can say this bug has been fixed I would not bother buying this app, I am now going to have switch another app and pay for it. Which is super frustrating
-- Tash5167, 2024-12-27

### ***** "Perfect Audiobook Solution"
Thank you for making this great app! Loading books in is seamless and it is easy to use. Could I suggest adding a timer whilst reading to see how much time is remaining in the chapter?
-- benjacobkramer, 2024-12-11

### ***** "Excellent app. No subscription"
So good to find an app to buy that works! Great app so far, does exactly what you would hope. Thank you very much for this great work!!
-- Mr winston, 2024-09-25

### *---- "Disappointing"
Lacks so many basic features that other free apps have, UI is weird, don’t recommend.
-- CJC.14, 2024-08-24

### ***** "Awesome audiobook player!"
Love everything about this app. The only thing that would improve it for me would be the ability to put the audiobooks in series or genre folders.
-- Bravo130, 2024-07-28

### *---- "Crashes randomly when connected to CarPlay"
Crashes randomly when connected to CarPlay. The app cannot be controlled by the CarPlay controls if mobile app is not open , while driving!
Super annoying when it randomly stops working. Not worth the hassle.
-- nmdimran, 2024-06-27

### ***** "Best Audio Book App"
Great App, plays everything and has an easy to use interface.
-- AlKalWa, 2024-06-21

### *---- "Lack google drive support"
I purchased this app for sole reason that I could link to google drive and within a month, support has been dropped. The workaround works only some of the time. I understand the reasons but hard not to feel a tad ripped off
-- Jonsey82, 2024-04-21

### ***** "Love it"
Great Audiobook reader. The ability to pull books from your cloud storage is the best part. I recommend and send links to me friends I like it so much.
-- Sam500600, 2024-03-16

### ***** "Worth every cent!"
Such a great app for listening to audio books from my Google Drive! Love it
-- Niloda00, 2023-06-09

### ***** "Excellent"
The best downloaded audio book player I have used by far.
-- Modex, 2023-02-07

### ***** "Great Audiobook App with an obvious UI"
The UI is intuitive and through, the feature set is what you would want, and nothing more. Bound does exactly what is says on the box: plays AudioBooks.
-- Doggone Crow, 2022-12-01

### ***** "Love this app"
Can’t live without this app!!
Only thing better would be a way to download more parts at once.
-- ZimbyZim, 2022-11-10

### **--- "Audio stops working every few mins"
Nice app, but audio stops working every few mins and only working and restarting the app fixes it.
-- Jack Tiernan, 2022-08-02

### ***** "Just simply the best audiobook player"
Title says it all. Simple, easy to use, but extremely well thought and works like a charm. I love it.
-- notsocryptic, 2022-07-28

### ***-- "Web uploaded doesn’t work"
Seems good but the web uploader doesn’t give an IP on iPhone 12 Mini
-- WowManMan, 2022-06-11

### *---- "Was working well"
Have been using this for a while now as CarPlay seemed to work well.

Now randomly my books go blank and when I try and play one it just crashes the app. The only way I’ve found to resolve this is either re upload the book then fast forward to find my spot again. Really annoying bug.
-- kernal32, 2022-05-22

### ***** "Excellent alternative to Apple’s Books"
Really great app. I love the way you can import and make audiobooks so easily.

Only two improvements I can really think of:
1. allow sharing of books
2. Allow download from URL; I have an online online library of zipped audiobook files which I really wish I could download directly into the app, rather than having to download them via Safari or another browser.
-- plasticscalpel, 2022-01-04

### ***** "Great speed adjustment options!"
This is absolutely my go-to for listening to audiobooks outside of Libby. I tried a bunch and none compared! If you like to fine-tune the speed your audio plays at without sacrificing clarity then this app is the right choice!
-- Kotabuck, 2021-11-25

### ***** "Great!"
Sync with cloud based management systems, full library control and management including grouping for unabridged tracks. Exactly what I needed to listen to my audiobook collection!
-- Gengagram, 2021-08-10
