User reviews

Love it!

Works great! A few feature requests:
- Would love if it was easier to hit the controls option (sometimes I hit the words instead)
- if there was a way to self-correct character names out other common, recurring words in the transcription to then auto correct throughout the rest of the transcription
- for the sleep timer: an option for two chapters (or to allow the user to choose an amount of chapters
- what percentage I’ve read

Definitely see myself using this app more and more. ❤️ super impressive

Brilliant app for staying focused!

I love the on-device transcription and the specialized reading modes (the dyslexia font and high-contrast layouts are fantastic).

Highly recommended!

Response from developer

We're grateful for your comment, your support pushes us to deliver the best experience, Thankyou!

Just what I needed!

I’ve tried BookPlayer, Bound, and Apple Books. HushBook is the first app that correctly displays chapter elapsed and remaining time on my 2017 Toyota Camry JBL head unit, the steering wheel controls change chapters correctly, and the on-device transcription is excellent. Thank you!

Response from developer

We're glad this worked as intended! Your reviews make small devs like me happy and want to contribute to the greater good! It all started as a small self-use project and now turned into a full scale app (New update Live) Thankyou!
