LibriVox Audio Books Pro

It’s amazing to have a free source of many audiobooks in many languages! What a gift!

I've been listening to this free-audio book app for over 10 years. Still the best app out there! NOTE to DEVELOPER: Only one frustration and don't know exactly when developer changed this but it's really annoying. For some reason the developer removed the go back or forward by chapter feature or to let you start the book over. I often fall asleep while listening and need to go back one or more chapters, can no longer do it. Or when going between listening on iPhone to iPad I need to go ahead a few chapters. Really annoying. Please add features back in.

I had a technical problem with the app and they fixed it and they wrote me back, an actual human email note thanking me for letting them know and explaining what went wrong. I’m grateful. Plus, this app seems to be the most convenient way to listen to LibriVox, and I’ve tried several. I listen everyday and have for years. To be clear the app is not affiliated with the LibriVox organization.

As others have mentioned, the recent update removed the rapid access scroll feature, which I often used. Also removed were the quick chapter fwd/rev controls. The font was decreased too. The app is not as useful as before.

I really like LibriVox and it’s volunteer readers. I’ve listened to books as I go to sleep for years. However, an update seems to have eliminated the chapter scroll bar. If I fall asleep during a chapter, I now have to start at the beginning and fast jump in 30 second increments to find my place again. I used to be able to move the slider to any point in the chapter.

I recently updated the ap and they removed the navigation bar that allows you to quickly change to different part of story. Interestingly, it still appears in the photos of the app in the ap store. Also buttons are much, much smaller making them harder to use. There is so much screen space that thus was completely unnecessary. I highly regret updating the ap. Wish there was a way I could revert back to original.

Learn for a lifetime and be a better person. It will look good on you! First step - all books by William Walker Atkinson….and go!

I came across this site while looking for a free audible book. It’s a wonderful source of classics and interesting reads. Most of the narrators are very good and easy to listen to.

The hours I have spent listening to these wonderful productions have greatly enhanced my quality of life.
