I enjoy listening and it works well. One glitch, if I play words with friends I have to take the phone out of my pocket and restart the app when driving
I love that I’m not giving bezos my money. Also love supporting local bookstores by selecting my favorites to get a cut of my purchases!
I love giving money to someone other than Amazon and supporting a local bookstore with my audiobook purchases.
This app is SO easy to use, there’s even a car mode! I find it’s simple to navigate, fast, and I really appreciate that my subscription supports a local bookstore of my choice!
I love this app! I absolutely adore that it allows me to support a local book store of my choice with the proceeds from my purchases! The best yet is not supporting any of Bezos’ companies. I am absolutely not against someone earning REASONABLE riches from their work and innovation. That any small group of men should be able to purchase our politicians’ favor above doing the work of the majority of their voters and to the detriment of the vast majority of society is abhorrent, immoral and I refuse to contribute my money to it. This company for now hasn’t become an evil empire trying to suck every last penny out of its customer while feigning beneficence. Lowering prices to crush competition and then raising them once the competition has been decimated. I do hope for improvements in the selection of this app but for now I am very satisfied and so long as I don’t catch wind of any massive campaign donations or PAC donations from this CEO or company, they will have my financial support.

I love this app and am so happy to have found it through my local bookstore who I am able to continue to support. I could never keep up with a book club until doing audio books. It’s nice to be able to support locally even though I’m not purchasing physical copies
Love love love being able to support my local bookstore and the app offers a truly seamless experience.
Hi! I love this app. it is very easy to use and stable! I really appreciate this service. the only thing I believe is missing is a way to bookmark on watchOs. as of now, the only way I can add a bookmark is to open my phone app. could we add this as a feature on the watch app?
This is a good app. It works well and I really enjoy being able to support local businesses.
Getting my audiobook fix without having to use Audible is a true delight! I have listened to so many remarkable books on here, the products of fiercely talented authors and readers! Thank you, Libro!
I love this early release of books opportunity! It’s so easy to use and I can listen at my own pace.
I am such a fan of libro.fm! I had never bought audiobooks before using this app despite being someone who always has an audiobook (or three) going and regularly relistens to old favorites. It is so nice to have an option that doesn't require a subscription to keep access to your purchases and that supports local booksellers! I recommend this app to anyone who loves audiobooks

Love this app, it’s commitment to indie book sellers, authors and readers alike. Can’t wait for e books! App works great!!
I love that Libro.fm gives back to indie bookstores with every purchase! Way better than Audible!
I’m so glad I switched to libro.fm a while back.
User friendly and so many choices! I really love this app. I have practically divested from audible and this is really my favorite one.
As a librarian, the 1st of every month is like Christmas morning. I have found so many amazing books through their ALC program. It’s my favorite thing and I’m forever grateful!
I wanted an app that isn’t owned by amazon or similar. Libro supports independent bookshops, sadly not the one I was hoping to support. But it’s better than the alternatives. It would be even better if you could buy books in the app.
I love being able to listen to audiobooks and the proceeds go to a wonderful local bookstore
I was hesitant to switch over from audible, afraid that it doesn’t offer the same features and ease of use. Glad that I took the leap, because this has all the things I need it to do. Plus, I get to support my local bookstore instead of a big corporation!!
