Временами приходится переустанавливать, т.к. слетает ПРО версия. Раньше просто покупал заново, деньги не списывали, приложение восстанавливалось. Сейчас в России нельзя купить/восстановить. Поддержка молчит ### 3/5 — Pro Functions No Longer Working *2026-04-14, version 1.189* After the last update, my Pro purchase is no longer recognized. I have sent a support email with no response and the App Store support function for the app gives an error. I have been using the app for several years and live it, but without Pro it is not very useful. Please help. ### 3/5 — Отзыв о программе *2026-04-11* После последнего обновления не смог восстановить свою покупку, написал письмо ответа не последовало не рекомендую программу к покупке. ### 3/5 — Great app but I’m stuck and can’t get through customer service form *2026-04-10, version 1.189* Please help - I’m stuck with the issue below but am getting an error when trying to submit it through your support web form. Great software but my restore purchase isn’t being recognized (even though receipt for pro shows in purchases history). Is there an email I can write to for help please? ### 4/5 — . *2026-04-04* В который раз слетает Про версия. «Восстановить» не работает. Приложение хорошее, но я не могу покупать его в третий (или даже четвёртый раз, точно не могу сказать) И вот она снова слетела. Январь 2026 - снова слетела. Уже раз в третий за последние пол года. Снова слетела подписка в феврале. Уже март, так и не получается «восстановить» или даже «оплатить». Может быть это из-за каких-то региональных ограничений? ### 5/5 — Rien à dire *2026-03-08* Très fluide, avec des options et grande facilité à transférer les Livre via wifi. Merci ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-02-14, version 1.188* The program is very excellent and practical. ### 4/5 — Great App *2026-01-09, version 1.187* I use this app to listen to all my audiobooks. It’s got a good interface and is easy to use. I would have given it a 5 if it allowed me to download audiobooks onto my Apple watch and listen to them without needing an iPhone. ### 3/5 — Worked fine before the last update *2026-01-07, version 1.187* Since the last update. The app won’t even launch correctly. It either freeze right after the splash screen or it just won’t open. ### 3/5 — Will not play M4B files *2025-11-24, version 1.187* The description says it should play m4b file naturally on an iPhone. It does not. I have to convert all my files to MP3. What a waste of time. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2025-11-21, version 1.187* I really love this audiobook player. I use it for many things. It is very versatile. Highly recommended. Get the pro version. Totally worth it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Booooo *2026-08-27, version 1.190* Boooooooo ### 1/5 — all this just to listen to my own mp3s? *2026-08-08, version 1.190* it has ads, a limit to how much you can listen if you dont pay them, it tracks you, you cant access the app without agreeing to the terms and conditions ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-07-28, version 1.190* Nothing more frustrating than trying to get this app to work with Dropbox. Useless ### 1/5 — Почините покупки! *2026-04-12* После последнего обновления слетела покупка, при попытке восстановить - ошибка, что покупки на акаунте нет, поддержка Apple говорить обратиться к разработчику, так как на акаунте покупка присутствует. Разработчик на письма не отвечает. ### 1/5 — Восстановление покупки *2026-04-10* Сделайте уже что то с этими сбоями после которых слетают покупки, через сотовую связь они не восстанавливаются, купил программу уже и не помню когда, лет 5, может 7 назад. И ранее с потребностью подтверждать покупки не сталкивался так часто, последнее время регулярно. Сделайте уже сброс счетчика после того как восстановил, а то сейчас ездил в командировку и 4 часа без книги, так как по мобильной не проходит восстановление покупок, а WiFiна протяжении маршрута нет!!! ### 1/5 — crashes every minute *2026-01-13, version 1.187* As of late 2025, the app gets killed by iOS every minute or so. I’ll be happy to update my review once this bug is fixed. ### 1/5 — Ridiculous new privacy policy *2025-12-18, version 1.187* For an audiobook player, collecting the following is not normal: • Search history across services • Email content and attachments • Files stored in their systems • Contacts’ email addresses • Precise geolocation • Cross-service behavioral data • Partner-provided data from unrelated services ### 1/5 — Bug *2025-12-16, version 1.187* I have been using this app for years and it’s been amazing, but the lack of reporting a bug feature is inexcusable. Looked everywhere and could not find one There’s a really annoying bug that pauses the app every single 60 seconds when the phone is asleep or your on another app. I have tried everything to fix it but does not work. Makes the app unusable for me ### 1/5 — already paid 5.99 to remove all restrictions. but still be limited to 12h *2025-12-07, version 1.187* the app developer is greedy and asking for more even i paid to remove all restrictions. still asking for for more ### 1/5 — Злой покупатель *2025-10-08, version 1.185* Покупал про версию, пользовался несколько лет, но в сентябре 2025 года, моя версия про стала free (ограниченной), прошу разобраться(( ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very good, many features, 0 serious issues for my usage *2026-08-17, version 1.190* Has all the features I would expect. Great playback configurability. Battery drain is not high! Still holds up in 2026, with regular maintenance updates. I have seen the app fix a few important bugs in the last few years. I’d say the largest weakness with this app is no direct file manager once the audiofiles are on-device, but the current implementation is good enough. Sometimes I have to restart the app if the playback doesn’t want to turn on when I open the app, but that never interferes with my listening experience. ### 5/5 — awesome *2026-06-29, version 1.190* I enjoy this app, I have not had any issues with it. ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2026-05-17, version 1.190* I’ve tried several audiobook apps and this is by far the best for ease of use, great features, and wonderful ui. Everything that you need is available on the main screen and easily accessible. Navigation is easy, settings for customizing are very flexible, and the support for bookmarks is superior. This is the one to buy. ### 5/5 — Support réactif !! *2026-04-15* Après quelques déconvenues pour restauré mes achats, le support a fait le nécessaire! Parfait! Application très complète et bien faite. ### 5/5 — Outstanding *2026-04-14, version 1.190* Works really well, very helpful when contacted. My "go to" audio book player, and I've definitely tried a lot of them... ### 5/5 — The Best IMHO *2026-04-10, version 1.189* I’ve been using this app for at least 10 years and it’s never let me down. Ridiculously good value and I love it. Well recommended. ### 5/5 — Отлично *2026-04-08, version 1.189* Отличное приложение, пользуюсь очень давно ### 5/5 — Just what I was looking for *2026-04-02, version 1.188* I recently got an iPad and I’ve been an android person my whole life. I was sad to see that smart audiobook player isn’t an app for iOS, so I went looking for an alternative. This perfect one. Premium is only $5.99 and it isn’t a subscription, it plays mp3, and m4b, and it allows you to combine multiple files into one audiobook super easily. It also has the sleep timer function, and the ability to boost audio for audio files that are very quiet. Simple to use, and a stripped down app without any5ing to make it more confusing to use ### 5/5 — Great *2026-03-26, version 1.188* Fantastic. Good xfer over wifi option. ### 5/5 — Удобно *2026-03-19, version 1.188* Никак не получается скачивать дорожки с ВК или Рутуба, а в остальном всё шикарно. Ещё бы понять разницу между Про и неПро приложениями. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
