What's New in Bloox

1.4.1

July 16, 2026

Bookmark playback - requested by a bunch of you, hardware skip button setting (for airpods and carplay) fixed to match what you wanted, import from computer is now better, hopefully will solve some of the issues that were reported, and transcription is much better now! - Play from a bookmark — Jump straight into playback from any Smart Bookmark, and quickly return to your latest spot if you jump back to an earlier one. - Hardware skip buttons, your way — Choose whether the track buttons on AirPods, Bluetooth devices, and CarPlay skip by chapter or by your custom skip interval, in Settings. - More reliable Import from Computer — The Wi-Fi upload screen now warns when the shown address can't be reached from your computer (VPN, cellular, or no Wi-Fi) and offers a quick retry, so uploads no longer fail silently. - Better transcription reliability — Fixed an issue where certain audiobooks could fail to transcribe over and over; they now recover automatically. - Other — Settings polish and under-the-hood improvements.

I love it!

I’ve tried a few audiobooks readers and have since deleted them. I’m reading my liberated audiobooks stored in iCloud. For a free app, this has a lot of useful features, including skipping and rewinding (choosing the number of seconds), choosing which chapter to read, bookmarks, etc. I love that I can see the words as the book is read (they’re not always accurate but I get the gist). I love the appearance inside. That’s just a few!

The Best Audiobook Player

I can count on one hand how many apps I’ve left a review for lol this one was too good to not share my thoughts.
I have been on the hunt for an audiobook player that would also track my listening history (without the user needing server set up/tech knowledge).
On top of being able to do that, this app contains a multitude of additional features.
My personal favorite is the Character identification feature. In the past, I have frequently had to pause my audiobook and search the ebook for a name, in order to figure out who they were again lol this feature will be a life saver!
I am beyond impressed and incredibly grateful to the developer.
I also appreciate the receptiveness to feedback, which is what drew me in to downloading the app.
Im already looking forward to future updates and exited to see this app take over the game!

Response from developer

Wow, I can’t tell you how much this means, thank you! This is exactly the kind of thing I hoped Bloox could become: a player that actually feels built for people who love audiobooks, not just a generic audio app. I’m still improving it all the time, so if you have ideas or anything that feels missing, please send it my way. Reviews like this really keep me going ❤️.

Cool, but can’t get Audible to work

***Update, it’s fixed. Awesome!

Great idea, but I can’t get it to work that my audible collection. Any tips?

Response from developer

Sorry about this, and thank you for flagging it. There was an Audible import issue for about 24 hours, and I fixed it last night in the latest update. Can you please try again when you get a chance? If it works now, I’d really appreciate an updated review. If it’s still not working, send feedback from inside the app and I’ll help you directly.

It’s become my go to Audiobook Player!

It’s got features I didn’t know I wanted! I can import from all my favorite sources, see reminders about characters and rewind to view the transcription for those ‘wait did they really just say that’ moments.

Response from developer

This makes me so happy to read. “Features I didn’t know I wanted” is basically exactly what I’m trying to build here. I wanted Bloox to feel like more than just playback, especially with transcription and those “wait, what just happened?” moments. Thank you for taking the time to write this, and please keep the feedback coming.

Awesome app

Is there any plan for standalone apple watch playback in the future?

Response from developer

Your wish is my command! Check out version 1.4.0 - live now in the app store, with an apple watch app - keep the feedback coming - I aim to build the perfect app, if something is missing - let me know and I'll add it!
