GraphicAudio Access Audiobooks User Reviews

Top reviews

Like riding an Impala with the engine of a Porsche

I give the actual audio, the product, a solid 5/5 stars. I’ve always loved reading and preferred it to an audio book, but a movie in your mind isn’t just a catchy slogan it’s the truth.

The app is garbage and the UX of this product is garbage. At times it’s glitchy, other times it just doesn’t work. If you don’t download the book it can be unusable at times. The library/sorting system is non-existent, and I don’t understand how there aren’t chapters. Honestly it’s so infuriating at times it makes me tempted to rate it 1 star, but, the product is so good I can’t rate it less than 3.

The downloads are so expensive I don’t understand how the app has been neglected for so long, hopefully they fix the user experience and let the audio books shine for how good they are.

Thanks for your opinions and comments. We plan to make new collection view options later this year. You can try the filters and sorting in the top right of app.

Great stories

I’ve been listening to Graphic Audio since I first heard of it on satellite radio. I’ve been hooked on this ever since.

Not flexible

I want to be able to navigate to chapters in the audiobook, also I want to be able to bookmark

The best thing since sliced bread! ❤️ ❤️

When I discovered GraphicAudio, I was so excited to listen to a book that was like a movie without the picture. Being a blind person, having someone to not only read well, but be able to describe what is being seen and make it where a person with a visual impairment can understand it is amazing. The voice actors, are so talented. They have made me feel like I was a part of the story. The way that all of them are able to bring out the emotions, action and make you feel like you know the characters in the stories it’s just beautiful. let’s not forget about the sound design in each GA production. Kudos to those who bring the atmosphere of the stories to life. I love GraphicAudio, it has become a major part of my life. I have always been an audiobook listener, but discovering GA took it to a whole Nother level. All of the voice actors are freaking fabulous. I love them all! Of course, I have my favorite GA productions and my favorite GA actors, but overall GraphicAudio is just amazing and I am grateful to have found it.
Thank you to everyone who has contributed to making GraphicAudio the powerhouse that it is. 💜 🫡 💛 🙌 😀 🧡

Thank you for the great review! We're happy to keep producing the dramatized audiobooks for you all.

The artistry is phenomenal. The app continues to freeze.

I cannot say enough good things about the voice actors and the production of the books!!!! They are truly gifted and I am so humbled to be able to appreciate their work. The app likes to freeze up in the middle of a book randomly the one. I’m currently listening to has seized over a dozen times and I have to close the app and re-open it and go back to where I was. Please please please fix this error in the app so that I can change my rating to a five star.

Thanks for the review. If the app freezes, it might work better if you try to download the audio into the app by tapping the yellow down arrow next to a title. Then when you finish listening, tap the X to remove the data. And you can re-download anytime again.

Greatly Enjoyed

I’ve listen through all the ACOTAR series on the Graphic Audio app and have no issues with listening and using my phone as normal. Even have connected through Bluetooth to listen in the car. No issues with purchasing and having the audio show up in the app. Usually arrives very quickly after purchase. Same with any pre-orders - shows up no problem.

I really do love the whole cast narration and sound effects makes listening so enjoyable! Can’t wait for next years releases. And I hope Graphic Audio continues releasing popular titles/series!

Thank you for the review!

Great content, good app - some improvement opportunity

The production on the books is fantastic. Graphic audio provide really incredible listening experiences.
The reason for the 4 star is due to a couple small issues: (1) occasionally the app will cease functioning if not in focus, forcing a restart. Not a huge deal except when I’m driving - then if a call comes through it’ll pause and won’t play again until the app is in focus.
(2) it would be great to have some organization choices on the content you own. Being able to sort in different ways, filter played and unplayed, etc.

Overall - I highly recommend GA and I look forward to the app getting improvements as it matures.

Thank you for the review! We hope to add sorting options this year.

Needs more control

It took me a while to get used to the extra sounds and noises in the performances, but I have learned to really enjoy it.

My only issues are 1. It needs more options for controlling the speed of the narration. 1.0 has been too fast to picture the storyline in my head and 0.75 is painfully slow. I think on audible it gives you a lot more options.

My other issue is that the entire book is on one “chapter” so I can either move forward or back by 30 seconds, or fly through with maybe 20 min accuracy. It makes it frustrating to return to a specific point.

Finally, it doesn’t integrate with my car’s CarPlay system, which is kind of annoying, especially because I can pause it on my car without looking down, but it’ll keep playing silently on my phone. When I come back I could be anywhere in the storyline and given the navigation issues above, it’s hard to find my spot again.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll check the carplay functions. It used to work fine with it.

OBSESSED!!!

I could never really get into audiobooks and for years my best friend would try to convince me to start. I decided to give it another go and I immediately found graphic audiobooks. Thank you so much for bringing them to life. LOVE the series a court of court of thorns and roses by Sarah J Mass!

BEST THING EVER!!!!

When I say I honestly wish every book was recorded by them I mean it I literally was and still am blown away at how amazing this Graphic Audio audiobooks are!!! I literally cried when my one book was over! I could literally listen all day and I have! The casts, the music, the sound effects it’s AMAZING!!!! If you haven’t heard a auto book by them yet you need to! Highly recommend ACOTAR series 1000% I could never listen to another version!
