Needs some improvements
First off stats are not accurate and is reporting back those inaccurate times to Audiobookshelf making my entire stats screwed up. It will say I’ve read x hours when I only just woke up. I’m assuming this is a time zone setting??
All Bookmarks would be amazing if you could collapse the book so you aren’t scrolling for 5 hours and maybe alphabetize by book or at least add a search field for it.

Trop bien
Premier fois depuis 15 ans que je télécharge une application sans avis. Banco, l’application est belle, facile à comprendre et intègre toute les fonctionnalités nécessaires (dont le téléchargement des audiobook depuis le serveur sur le téléphone) merci
Solid, but has its issues
First off, the app feels sleek and modern, with a responsive UI and well designed layout. It has fun statistics and tons of customization to tweak it to your preferences. It really hits every checkbox for what features I want to see in a player, including playback rate, chapter selector, library browser and filter, metadata view, and an epub reader.
The now playing screen is very useful, which of course is also adjustable however you want it. Coming from other ABS iOS apps I also want to say that I have a much easier time downloading my books through absorb, with background downloads actually working if my screen darkens a moment. That was a real issue with my last player.
Edit: disregard below statements, there was a mangled entry in the db for ABS causing client crashing, as promised it’s a 5/5 for me. Though I’m still unsure why other apps could handle the corrupted entries and absorb couldn’t.
I will say it still has a suite of its own issues though. The app drops connection to the server frequently, even though the domain is reachable through other apps on the same phone or by browser. I believe it’s an issue when flooding requests, happens a lot when I scroll through my library too quickly.
It will also crash infrequently when utilizing the mini-player, I have better luck keeping the app focused most of the time.
If it weren’t for the connection issues I’d say it’s 5/5.

Beautiful, elegant, and functional
I’ve tried many apps for my audiobookshelf server and this is by far the best one. It is truly free and open source as anything using audiobookshelf should be, thank you for your efforts!
Truly brilliant
I never write reviews but I’m blown away by the quality of this app. Functionally and aesthetically, it’s flawless. The developer is beyond talented. I’ve tried many premium audiobook clients and none of them come close.
