Audiobook and Podcast Player App Reviews

Only problem I have is the app unable to remember the last place it was. Otherwise its a great player.

Great interface. Easy to use and reliable replacement for playing iTunes Store Audiobooks - advanced features with simple big-button controls! I dont fall asleep without it. Thanks!

Bad

You can just open your audiobooks you already have on your device. Nothing more, nothing less.

Multi Audiobook Player is the best audiobook player I have used and it integrates closely with the Apple Music app on the iOS device you are using . Its clear user interface gives one very good controls for navigating through an audiobook. The app gives a Chapter list and various skip and seek controls to make navigation of the book easy. It also has a very useful progress bar which shows the current location in a section with the time played and time remaining for each section and for the whole audiobook. It should be noted that Multi Audiobook Player is designed to integrate with Apples Music playe app and it only plays the audiobooks that have been synced to the Music app using iTunes (or downloaded from the iTunes Store). You cannot download audiobooks directly into Multi Audiobook Player, that is not its purpose. If this app had direct, in-app, access to the different playback speeds and to AirPlay (both of which have to be controlled using the Music app) it would be almost perfect.

I had to look hard to find a audiobook player that would work in the car - ie a large play/pause button. Things to fix: - move the skip buttons away from the play/pause. If you touch them accidentally, your skip hours of your book. - turn off the screen when not in use - get rid of the skip buttons on the lock screen while listening. You touch those and there goes another few hours of the book.

I am having problems getting it to work with books which consist bog two or three files. I have not had this problem with other apps.

I cannot choose any of my audiobooks I have on my iPhone to play!

Niestety, aplikacja nie widzi plików (.m4b) wgranych na iPhone z biblioteki i co oczywiste nie jest w stanie ich odtworzyć… Unfortunately, the application does not see the files (.m4b) uploaded to the iPhone from the library and of course it is not able play them...

Good application

Turn on the chapter name in the list and in the header

Nice app! Too bad its sized for the iPhone and I cant get any audiobooks to load to it.

The ability to listen to multiple audio books and switch between these is great. You need to have your audio books tagged as audio books in iTunes, otherwise the app will not find these. But then it works great, even with MP3 files.

Dont waste your money. Says it plays audio files but isnt working for me. When I choose a podcast or overdrive audiobook playlist, the app crashes. Not sure about any other features since the app will NOT play my audiobooks.

Great idea. I always have two books Im listening to at a time plus podcasts. My problem is that it doesnt actually bookmark each book and will start over from the beginning every time. Could have gotten that for free with the standard iPhone player!

If you follow the instructions and convert your audio books into iTunes audio book format (google it if you need help) it works great. Im very pleased with the app. Its not perfect but it works as advertised.

If you audio book in divided into separate files (like most are) youll have to add each individual file to the app. Some longer audio books may have literally hundreds of files. A wasted 99 cents.

Chapters not work ! Pls fix it.

Had two books on my iPhone. Started listening to the first one; paused it; switched to the second book, listened to the second book and came back to the first. The first book started from the very beginning. Repeated several times; same result. Clearly, this app is a waste.

Wise idea to provide an independent player. Unfortunately, touching the screen anywhere but on the playback buttons causes the entire control block to disappear. Only way to get it back is to flip back to the book selection screen and re-select the active entry. Also, the skip setting is lost whenever the app is closed.
