App will not open
For over a week every time I try to open this app, it goes to a spinning wheel on my book. I am not able to report the bug fix or to contact the developer of the apps because the keyboard will not disappear and reveal the SEND button. When I start to type, the send button disappears and I am not able to submit the feedback

Why can’t I change my email yet
I love the service and love the idea of being given context at the end of each chapter, but because I can’t change my email I can’t use it. If they could allow me to change my email this would be 4 or 5 stars
Fascinating intrduction
Just completed my first book with Audrey, namely “Moby Dick”. It was well worth joining the app and the extra information provided extra depth and understanding.
Loved it!!
Absolutely loved my first book on this app. Am going to be going back for many more. A super cool concept and executed very well. Great for anyone who loves historical and literary context to their classics!
Non-existent customer service
I purchased a book through the app. When I tried to listen to the book, I was not able to log into my account or access my bookshelf. My only option was to repurchase the book. I have repeatedly emailed requesting help and have never heard back. I was looking forward to the listen and subsequent discussions. A bit disappointing to say the least.

Love Audrey!
Discovered Audrey from a Storygraph giveaway and keep coming back for more! Always a pleasure to dive into a classic accompanied by a lovely guide and illustrations! The team is small but very responsive :)
Highly recommend
Love Audrey! A supported reading experience for classic literature that you might have felt too intimidated to approach on the page. Fantastic narrators, knowledgeable guides & beautiful illustrations. Have read four books with Audrey now & highly recommend.
Fabulous app
I love listening to audiobooks and am so pleased to have found Audrey. I just finished The Woodlanders and bought 3 more books to enjoy. The content available after each chapter added so much to my enjoyment, it’s like a mini bookclub in your pocket. The app itself is a breeze to use. It’s obvious the people behind this product care a lot. Highly recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I love the Audrey app! Their guided audiobooks are a wonderful way to consume classic literature.
The illustrations are beautiful and the narrators are entertaining. Each guide provides cultural context, historical tidbits, and academic knowledge that makes me engage with the story beyond reading.

Great audiobook app!
Excellent narration and guides! A great way to immerse yourself in the classics.
More than just an audiobook
Excellent narration, knowledgeable guides, and original artwork come together to create a unique and worthwhile experience!
Much more than an audiobook app
The Audrey app has been a game-changer for my reading journey. It breaks down complex literary works into manageable, engaging insights, making intimidating classics like Metamorphosis by Kafka and Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf feel approachable. The thoughtful analysis and context provided in the guide have given me the confidence to explore books I once avoided, enriching my understanding and appreciation for challenging literature. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to deepen their reading experience!

Excellent way to listen to classic books
Even if a book feels daunting, the included guides, character lists and summaries with the Audrey App make classic books really approachable. Joining a readalong is also a great way to connect with others reading/listening to the same book.
Makes the classics so accessible!
I got introduced to Audrey through a giveaway of A Doll’s House on The StoryGraph (another of my favorite book-related apps). And after that first listen with the wonderful accompanying guide, I got hooked. I have listened to so many classics I had never read before, and the guides give me essential context to make them more meaningful. Mrs. Dalloway, Far from the Madding Crowd, and Ulysses have been some of my favorites. Just a great app and experience all around.

Excellent narration but app is difficult
I listened to an audiobook on Audrey for the first time as part of a review blog tour. The narration was excellent and it was interesting to have the guide’s and translator’s intros.
Only criticisms are the way the app functions (and these could be my fault for not having read the instructions properly). The narration stopped every time I tried to look a the homepage to see how many chapters there were or look for other details. It also took me ages to find the hands free mode so I had to manually restart the story at the end of each chapter. Again, probably my fault for not reading the small print.
I haven’t had a chance to look at the guide notes yet because the app threw me to the review page as soon as I’d finished the novel, but will dip into them. I didn’t want to read them as I went as I was enjoying the flow of the narrative, notwithstanding having to manually move it on to the next chapter every time. Edited to add: having gone back to the title after finishing the book, I can’t find the notes, if there were any. Yet again, probably something I’ve missed in the small print but noting here in case others are as dumb as I am!

Best way to listen to the classics
I have now listened to 3 audiobooks with Audrey and it’s the best. The app is user friendly, notes after each chapter/section, depending on how the book is organized.
My favorite part is that you only see the notes after you’ve finished a chapter, this helps you not feel overwhelmed with the amount of information as well as not spoil anything!
Don’t think twice, try it!

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Audrey app. We're delighted to hear that you've enjoyed your journey through 3 audiobooks with us. Thanks for encouraging others to try the app :)
Would definitely recommend
This app has some great books and also goes above and beyond to engage with readers for interactive listen along. I’ve listened to so many books I just wouldn’t have picked up otherwise, some of which have been highly enjoyable.
Thanks for all you do Audrey, you’re fantastic

My favourite app
I love my Sunday mornings listening to Audrey as the sun comes up and scrolling through the notes with a coffee ☕️❤️
Great way to listen to audiobooks
Would recommend!
An enhanced audio book experience
I’ve finished several books on Audrey now and I can’t recommend it enough. Fabulous narration and rich added content from the literary guides (including playlists!) — experts on each particular story — makes “reading” books on this app so much more than just an audio version.
