Great App

The app looks beautiful and works well. I have it setup with Audiobookshelf. The only issue I have is that it takes forever to load when I open the app. I have a audiobook library of over 300GB so I can understand it will take a little while. But it loads way slower than other apps I’ve used.

Once everything loads in it works great though. Would 100% recommend for smaller libraries.

Good start - Potential to be the best app

Promising Start!

A well polished all-in-one client for your self-hosted ebooks and audiobooks. A little more love on the reader, such as page swipe animations and controls (rather than just tap and button press) and font style options, would easily make this a five star app. Haven’t tested CarPlay compatibility yet but, if not yet available, it’s a must to make this the go-to app.

Looking forward to seeing how this app develops!

Amazing feedback! Thank you so much for the interest and support! I am still working out some of the issues with the reader but those features are in the pipeline! I am also still working on a dedicated CarPlay app but CarPlay "Now Playing" feature is supported; if you start a book in the app you will have control through the car.

All in one stop shop

Everything on this app is getting better and better, the developer is quick to fix or get new material up ready to use quick. Keep up the great work.

Thank you!! I really appreciate the feedback and if you have any requests or bugs please don't hesitate to reach out!

Lots of great features

So far I am loving this app. Being asked to sign up for the second service at login was a bit of a pain as I only have one service live at the moment but it’s all good because I will be able to switch if I don’t want the one I chose (it has a one month cool down unless you pay for premium).

So far it has work well with my audiobookshelf and is quickly becoming my favorite app for listening to my audiobooks. Only minor complaint is that every time I start the app I have to adjust the playback speed back to where I want it, but great news! I talked to the dev and he is working on making that setting persistent.

All in all I recommend this app.
