BookPlayer vs AudioSilo

BookPlayer is the perfect way to enjoy audiobooks in MP3, MP4, M4B, M4A formats on your iPhone or iPod Touch! *** Please note: the app does not include audiobooks. It is designed to play your audio files. *** This app is designed with a single purpose - to provide maximum convenience and simplicity when listening to audiobooks of various formats! There are many online resources where you can find audiobooks on a wide variety of topics, voiced by both professional actors and audio enthusiasts. Most of these audiobooks are available in folders containing many files, predominantly in MP3 format and others similar. I, the creator of this app, am also a devotee of audiobooks and have tried to incorporate everything necessary into BookPlayer to make listening as easy and enjoyable as possible. • Supports MP3, MP4, M4B, M4A formats (except files with DRM protection). • Automatically remembers where you left off in audiobooks. • The ability to quickly jump to any part of the audio file. • Control playback through the headset. • Control the player through the Control Center and lock screen. • Sleep timer with a choice of different time intervals or until the end of the chapter. If you liked BookPlayer, don't forget to share your impressions with others and leave a review.
