Useful audiobook app
I like what the developer is making. There are some UI issues and it doesn't have a widget yet. I hope those fixes are planned.
The colour scheme and usability is well thought out. Privacy focused and able to easily connect to my audiobook collection.
Great work!

Error while using Domain with https
If connecting via http://ip:port everything works as stated.
If trying to connect via http://domain or https://domain it says
„Error
Authentication failed. Please check your credentials or try logging in again.
OK“
After this, it shows the „Switch Library“ tab with „no libraries found“. Clicking „Done“ does nothing. Restarting the App does not help. I need to reinstall the app.

Issues with Series
I was excited when CarPlay got added to this app in the last update. I was all ready to switch to this from my other app until I realized it can’t order series correctly. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to how it orders series and you can’t even drill down into the series to see the order yourself. Apparently this has been an issue forever according to the bugs/request.
Hopefully it gets fixed as I love the look of this app compared to plappa, but it still can’t match that app for features.

Best audiobookshelf client
Good reader, could be great
As someone who uses the beta AudiobookShelf app, SoundLeaf is similar in its design with only offline downloads and reading stats locked behind payment, very clean UI and more stable than the official (unreleased) app.
Only issue I’ve found is inability to click on a books series to drill down to just show those within, and the books shown in the series view down show in book order, making picking the correct next book in a series tricky unless you know which to select.

Gorgeous and functional
I’ve been using two other apps to stream my ABS library with varying degree of success. Feeling like something was missing, I continued my hunt for the best ABS player and I think I’ve found it. Not only is this app beautifully designed, but it works excellently. The instant I typed in my local address it connected. That was very satisfying. I used it for less than five minutes before buying the full version. Thank you for having a fixed price and not a subscription. Smart download is a game changer for me. That’s the one featured I didn’t know I needed and now can’t live without. My only wish is that you had widget support and I hope you’ll add it in a future update. Thank you

Looks nice but…
Audiobooks load great along with the series and it looks nice but podcasts wouldn’t load at all.
Works okay, but I have issues
The app is beautifully designed but I have a few issues. 1)new books added to audiobookshelf don’t seem to appear quickly and I can’t find where to refresh the library. 2) when scrolling through chapters I wish it would scroll to the current chapter.
Doesn’t work
I bought the premium version just to find out that it doesn’t connect to the podcast library, only the audiobook library is working. I always get an API error trying to open the podcast library. In addition, audiobooks randomly stop playing. Overall, this app is now totally useless.
Gut, aber mit Optimierungspotenzial
App schaut gut aus mit viele Features! Finde ich richtig gut, besonders die Funktion „Smart Download“.
Ich kann leider das Programm nicht nutzen, weil allgemein beim Scrollen in Serien es spinnt sehr heftig, sogar in einzelnen Folgen auch.. das mach echt kein Spaß.
Bitte die App optimieren, dann wird sie 5 von 5.
Re: ist etwas besser geworden, danke!

Response from developer
Thank you! The performance issue should be fixed in the upcoming v1.2 version.
Love the 1.1 version
but still a bit of feedback
regarding connecting to a server: you should make it more obvious that tou can connect using http, not https.
regarding the player, please give us an option in the player to switch between chapter-bases "scrubbing", and whole-book-bases scrubbing. there should also be a setting which is prefered as default. if it is possible to switch already, please make it more obvious

Response from developer
Thank you for the kind words, this is coming up in the v1.2 version.
Amazing work
I followed your Reddit post about the launch of this app and immediately downloaded it. I know you received lots of feedback and I’m looking forward to being able to read epub publications in this app. Keep up the amazing work. My only feedback is to implement a way to switch between libraries if one has multiple libraries.

Lots of potential
Love it but not sure why everything is a bit delayed when i perform a click/action. Might be an ABS thing but the default ABS app doesn’t do that… hoping sync works better and it remembers place accurately.
Great app for audiobookshelf
I’m excited to see how this app matures. It’s already got a lot of great features and the developer seems like they’re working hard to keep adding new features.
