LibriVox Audio Books

Updates killed this app. Each night I go to listen to the same book I was listening to previously, it won't start the book unless I change books and then go back to it. Then the timer behavior and usage are ruined. Can barely read timer readout because it's a drab color directly ontop of the book cover. Adjusting the timer is an absolute pain. Bought this app back in 2017/2018. It was fine how it was.

I've used and loved this app for a long time but this latest update has rendered the play button useless. I also hate that the sleep timer display is dimmed. Can we get a rollback please?

Previous versions worked better, even with little quirks. The latest major update is terrible. UI changes now mean that the space available to display the titles is much less. Titles get chopped off. Sleep timer was updated - now more fiddly. But most importantly - the play button topped working! Please fix or better, revert to previous version!

I love LibriVox and the volunteers who read the books. this review regarding the app only. I can't share suggestions from within the app as the button opens social media sharing instead, so you will find my suggestions here. using controls on my headphones is impractical: pausing a book will lose me several minutes of progress and I've ended up listening to the same passage many times. fast forward and rewind move me between chapters rather than some seconds to and fro. app options are barren.

the quality of available content, makes the best app for me that I have, ever downloaded, and I only needed, less than a minute to subscribe for a year ad free! I can't wait to get into the content, there is, so much to choose from, I've never received an app before, and I honestly recommend Librovox add free! kind regards Philip. ps. do it now, don't miss out!
