Reading for Ears

Reading for Ears is a listening companion for the audiobooks you already own. It is made for people who have long audiobooks on Audible, Libby or CD that they mean to finish, and who listen in the gaps of the day — a commute, a walk, the dishes. Unlike an audiobook player or store, it plays and sells nothing: it plans your listening against the real windows in your week and tells you the date you will finish. It does not play your books, and it does not sell them. Start right away — no account needed; create one any time to keep your shelf in sync across devices. You listen wherever you already listen. This app keeps the plan: what today's windows are worth, where you got to, and the date you finish on. YOU ALREADY HAVE THE TIME A seventy-five hour book across a year is twelve minutes a day. The problem was never the hours, it was that they are scattered across a commute, a dog walk and the washing up. Name those windows once and the app plans against them. TODAY'S FIT Given the book you are on, the speed you listen at, and the windows that fall on today, it works out what each one clears, where to stop, whether today covers what you need, and the date you are on course to finish. When you are behind it solves for the speed that would catch you up, and it will not suggest anything past 1.75x, because comprehension starts to cost above that. NEVER LOSE YOUR PLACE Log where you got to, or just the minutes. Each one works out the other, so the position on your shelf is always right, and it is always yours to correct. YOUR SHELF, UNLIMITED Every book you are listening to, with its runtime, language, where you listen, and how far in you are. Search, filter and sort. No cap on how many. REFLECTIONS Write what a passage made you think, pinned to the exact point in the book it came from. THE WORLD SHELF Twenty-three public-domain classics in eight languages, ready to add to your shelf in one tap. Titles, authors and typical runtimes only — this is a reference list, not a store and not a download. WHAT IS FREE, AND STAYS FREE Your shelf, your windows, today's plan, your finish date and drift, your streak, your weekly chart, your reflections, the World Shelf and exporting your log. Everything you need to finish a book costs nothing.
