What's New in Spine

1.1.14

November 3, 2026

Now Listening, whatever the grouping: Grouping your library by Author, Series, Library or AirLock used to hide the Now Listening row, so the books you were partway through disappeared into their shelves. Now Listening now stays at the top under every grouping, and each book also keeps its place on its shelf, so a series still reads in order.

User reviews

Love this App!

Best audiobook player app I’ve found (and I’ve tried several). Definitely recommend!

Truly amazing

Absolutely love it, really like the audio boos option.

Needs MP3 chapter support

Instant five stars with this feature. As it stands, mp3s play as one giant block of audio, making it difficult to revisit specific sections in an audiobook. Adding chapter support using the file’s own metadata would fix that.

Phenomenal!!

Thanks for this app! It’s amazing! The only thing I’d like to connect it to is my Fable account! This app is perfect! — Thank you!

Great app but…

Add folders plus when clicking on an audiobook, it should be full screen and should not show the option “update meta data”. It would also be cool if you could add some themes too, like audible.
