App links to my plex account but will not play files on my iPhone
I tried everything and cannot get it to work on my iPhone but app works on my Hiby R4. Functionally the same as prologue but $3/month more and has more bugs.
Doesn’t work
I don’t know how others got it working. All it does is list my books. It doesn’t show art. I can’t get any book to play. I restarted it and still no playback and no art. Hard to pay a subscription to an app that doesn’t work. It is pretty useless.
Pathetic
Not even usable I was willing to sprang the subscription money if it worked but it wouldn’t even recognize my library
Works great
Setup was short and sweet. Under 1 minute. So excited to use this as the plex interface for audio books stinks 🤣
Nice idea. No carplay support
What sort of an audiobook app fails to support CarPlay? Such promise. Such a failure.
Do not download this app
Scam. It’s not free to use, and does not function well. It gladly accepts your Plex login info and then most books will not even play. Riddled with issues. SCAM!
Nice app; Plex is a problem
Bookcamp is certainly a nice app. Now, can you guys tell me how to better access my audio files either on my Plex server or is there another solution please help!
App fails to locate Plex files
Requiring a login is lame. Charging a subscription is worse. Failing to find audiobooks on Plex or even prompting the user to select a library makes the app useless. If there is a specific setup required to make this work then it should be made known to users.
Doesn’t work at all
Decided to try this app as an alternative to prologue since prologue does not recognize book chapters in my m4b files. This app connected to my Plex library with no issues and finds the books and also chapters. However, it will not play any book and just says encountered and error please try again.

Fails to load 9 times out of 10
Just download Prologue and save yourself the hassle.
Low quality compared to Prologue
Shouldn’t be a subscription app. Requires no infrastructure and has no updates in 8 months. Abandonware.
Potential to be great but…
I’ve had high hopes for Bookcamp since I learned about it a year back when looking for a good app to play my audiobooks from Plex on. I was bummed to find out there were major errors that didn’t allow the books to play, so I had to revert back to my old app. I really love the sleek look of Bookcamp and kept checking back for updates. Found out today there was an update 5 months ago and redownloaded to check to see if it was any better. The great news is, my books load now and start fairly quickly! The potential dealbreaker now though, is there isn’t a way to see info about a book, when you click into it it just plays. There also seems to be some issues with the main login page, as when I didn’t type anything and just submitted I got an object/object error.
I want to encourage the developer(s) to keep refining this app, once everything is stable and smooth I can promise the subscription fee will be more palatable to consumers.

Abandonware
This app has essentially been abandoned since release with the creator investing all of their time on the Android version. The one iOS has is still awful and just doesn’t work.
The subscription is solely to sync your playback location which is so limited in this space that it frankly isn’t worth the money. If you’ve got your own audiobooks and the knowledge to run a server, you’re better off with Audiobookshelf by a long shot.

Broken
Shows api error. Stopped working a few days ago. My plex is fine, works with Plexamp
Not free
This app is not free and requires a monthly or yearly subscription. Sticking with Prologue as it only has a one-time fee.
Likely a scam
They ask for your email then ask for a subscription. There is no free functionality at all, I don’t understand why Apple would allow this app to advertise itself as free.
Can't link to my Plex library
Foloowed all the instructions but it says I have no Audiobooks libarray...when I do.
Paid / subscription
Don’t know why this shows up as free. It has no free component. There is no way to try it out without signing up and paying a subscription fee.
No support
I can't link my Plex audiobooks library to the app. I asked the developer for help a few times and havent received a reply.
There is another app that does the same thing and works, called Prologue

Requires purchase - deceptive practice
This app requires an account (including email), plus an in-app purchase to even open. Zero functionality before then. Deceptive marketing practice.
