About

Knihovnicka

Features
Read full description

Knihovnicka is a home for your entire library — audiobooks, ebooks and print books in one place, on iPhone, iPad and in your browser. It is not a store. It is your library: the books you already own, the files sitting on your disk or home NAS, and a clear record of what you have read and listened to. YOUR WHOLE LIBRARY AT A GLANCE Audiobooks, ebooks and print books with covers, genres, series, ratings and blurbs. Add a book by searching online, scanning its ISBN barcode, photographing a whole shelf at once, or by hand. Import an existing Goodreads library from a single CSV file. AUDIOBOOK PLAYER Chapters, bookmarks, timestamped notes, adjustable speed and pitch, quiet-passage boost, equalizer, sleep timer, and seamless resume exactly where you stopped. Works in CarPlay, on Apple Watch, on the Lock Screen and as a Home Screen widget. EBOOK READER EPUB, PDF, MOBI, AZW3, FB2, TXT, HTML, plus CBZ and CBR comics. Highlight with a finger or Apple Pencil, underline, take notes, turn pages, read in night mode, and open PDFs in landscape with zoom. Your position is remembered and synced. READ ALOUD IN A NATURAL VOICE Have any ebook read to you — either by the system voice or by the Piper neural voice, which sounds markedly more lifelike. Twelve languages: Slovak, Czech, English, German, Polish, Hungarian, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Ukrainian and Russian. A voice downloads once and then reads entirely offline, with no text ever leaving your device. Start reading from any sentence you choose. YOUR FILES STAY YOURS Connect a home NAS (QNAP, Synology, any WebDAV server), Google Drive, or send files over Wi-Fi straight from your computer. Download audiobooks for offline listening and see exactly what takes up space in Storage. Large files stay where they are — Knihovnicka keeps only metadata and reading state. SYNC The same library on iPhone, iPad and the web under your account. A change on one device shows up on the others right away. FRIENDS AND FAMILY If you want to, add friends, browse their libraries, lend books, exchange messages and recommend titles to each other. On the family plan you share a whole library while keeping any individual title private. Friendships and family invitations always require confirmation from both sides. STATS AND HISTORY How much you have read and listened to, when and what, monthly and yearly goals, a friendly competition with friends, and a shareable year-in-review card. ASK YOUR LIBRARY Ask a question in your own words — "which audiobooks did I start?", "something like that book about music" — and get an answer drawn from your own shelves. WHAT IS FREE Without a subscription you get unlimited library tracking, adding books, ratings, covers and sync. The reader opens half of each book and the player gives you 5 hours of listening so you can try them properly. SUBSCRIPTION Knihovnicka Plus unlocks the reader and player without limits, storage connectors, offline downloads, natural-voice read-aloud, lending, detailed statistics and AI features. Knihovnicka Family adds library sharing across your household. Subscriptions are monthly or yearly (yearly saves two months) and begin with a 14-day free trial. Payment is charged to your App Store account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it at any time in your Apple Account settings.

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Knihovnicka at none against Audioteka's 10. Knihovnicka also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). Audioteka's advantage is chart position (#155 vs unranked). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
