ShelfPlayer

Update: Dank Entwicklerhinweis konnte ich nun den automatischen Download für alle Podcasts einstellen und es funktioniert in der Anwendnung. Eine globale Einstellung gibt es hierfür nicht, wie in ABS selbst muss jeder Podcast eigens eingestellt werden.

I have been a long time user/tester for the “official” ABS app and compared to it, ShelfPlayer is about 100 years ahead of it. Actual working Siri integration, a working CarPlay implementation, and just a clean easy to navigate UI. Spend the few bucks, you will never look back!

I just wish I had found your app a bit sooner. Definitely a sold app if you want to move over to Audiobookshelf from other selfhosting options (like Plex who ended Podcast support no sooner than a few years after starting it).

I downloaded this yesterday and am super impressed! It has a very nice looking interface that is both pleasant to look at and extremely functional. Though a relatively small thing, I particularly like the more books by author and more books in the series that show up under a a book. Also, I can’t over state how exciting it is to have real CarPlay support for books from Audiobookshelf. Add on that this app is truly open source and it’s pretty hard to beat. I highly recommend this app… and already have done so to friends.

I’m very happy with this app! It does exactly what I need it to, seamlessly connects to my Audiobookshelf server, and allows for offline listening. The developer has done a fantastic job with this one and appears to respond quickly when users need help.

Can I use Chinese?

I’m so impressed how well put together and smooth and full-featured this app is. It is easier to use and more stable and better integrated into iOS than Patreon or Stitcher or even Apple’s own podcast app. It’s working beautifully with my AudioBookShelf server and I couldn’t be happier with it. Amazing work!!

The audiobooks section is great. However. The podcast options are mostly only available on the app, not much on the carplay. Way way better than the app audiobookshelf app.

Works well, CarPlay does not allow for selecting of media, I can only manipulate a title that is already playing which means I still have to pick up my phone find the title and begin it’s playback. Works well with audio bookshelf otherwise.

Using for a few days now. No issues so far. CarPlay functionality was an unexpected bonus!
