What's New in AudioBookSync

1.4

August 1, 2026

Audiobooks in more languages, easier importing, and an important crash fix. • Books in English, French and Spanish: you can now set a book's language – and it's detected automatically from the e-book. It drives the audiobook's speech recognition, the camera text search, and therefore the accuracy of every jump between text and audio. Previously German was always assumed, which made indexing useless for books in other languages. • ZIP archives are unpacked automatically: just drop a .zip containing your audiobook (and e-book) into the AudioBookSync folder in iCloud Drive – the app unpacks it into its own book folder on the next scan and clears the archive away. Handy when your cloud service changes file extensions on export. • Fixed: deleting a book folder in iCloud Drive could crash the app several times before the book disappeared from your library. Removal now completes quickly and cleanly. • The home screen widget updates reliably again – right after launching the app and after you take over a position from another device. • Your reading position no longer jumps backwards when opening the reader, and a rare case where the listening position could be reset to 0:00 has been fixed.
