For the love of the game
I’ve tried every single Audiobookshelf client on the App Store and this is by far the best with no paywall, just an opportunity to donate. This man came out of the woordworks and created a masterpiece just for the love of the game.
Exceptional
As a long-time developer, I have to give credit where it’s due. Absorb is one of those apps that reminds me what great software feels like. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do, but it does it with style, polish, and grace.
To me, it’s the little things that separate a good application from an excellent one. The thoughtful design, attention to detail, and smooth user experience show that the developer truly cares about the craft.
Well done, and thank you for creating such a high-quality application.

Great App!
It’s clear that a ton of work has been put into this app, and it gives a really nice experience. Totally free, has features not on other apps, and offers a super customizable listening experience.
Skip All Others
This... This is the only Audiobookshelf app that actually meets my standards. Don't bother with anything else.
Delivers everything it promises and more
I've tried nearly every iOS app for Audiobookshelf. This one is the clear winner.
Amazing app, works flawlessly
I’ve tried a handful of different application applications for Audiobookshelf prior to this one and this one is hands-down by far the best of them.
It’s easy to use, it’s stable, it can load my entire library, which many of the other apps couldn’t, and I have zero complaints or concerned about using it.

Great app for Audiobookshelf
Works well. Can download books easily.
Only thing I need is to stop my mistakenly moving my book reading spot by accident with my fat fingering. Will be nice to have an undo button for this.

Great little app
Does exactly what you want it to do. Fantastic little app
Designed well and practical!
As one who appreciates aesthetics, this is by far the most beautiful ABS app. It feels like a professional dev just had a pet project he finally put to market. Beautiful, functional. Fantastic app!
Love it but..
On an iPhone 12 mini there’s no way to scroll down to the episodes section in podcasts. Besides that this is a great app.
A must have!
After being an iPhone user since the iPhone 4, I am writing my first review. This app is incredible. It checks every box in terms of functionality and ease of use. Absolutely perfect with Audiobookshelf.
Perfect for me
Amazing, simple. Works perfectly for my use case. I tried many others but none work so well as this one.
Fantastic
It’s beyond me how this app hasn’t gotten more attention. I tried out a few others like BookPlayer and Prologue but found shortcomings with both. Absorb on the other hand just worked right out of the gate. No struggling to get cover art to transfer, chapters recognized and all in a very easy to navigate design. Highly recommended

Beautiful App
Currently my favorite ABS iOS app. Really a beautiful and different take on things. Would love to see this come out with an Apple Watch companion app for offline listening on the go without my phone. Thanks for all the work!
The best ABS client
Tried all the available audiobookshelf clients and Absorb is clearly the best. Audra comes close but simply not at same level of polish. Looking forward to where dev takes this app. Love it!
Amazing!!
This latest app update fixed my one and only issue with resuming playback audio with AirPod squeeze controls. Everything works perfectly now and the new features added are amazing! Thank you!!!
Outstanding
It just works! and works so well, I tried several other apps install, server not found or crippled or just too much friction. This installed, server found, here’s your books. Couldn’t be simpler
Amazing!
Such a great full featured App! You have covered everything a user might need and such a polished UI..
Great Work mate..
Great Work mate..
Love it!
Brilliant app. Lovely interface, highly functional, intuitive, lightweight, noninvasive …and all for free. Highly recommend!
I've tried every app, and this is it
I've been running audiobookshelf for years, and I've run the official app through TestFlight and side loading, and I've tried every app in the App Store. There are some good ones, and some not so good.
Absorb, however, is it. This is hands down the best ABS app I've used. Huge thanks to the dev for making this, and even more so for making this free. Absolutely fantastic app.
