The best app for your own audiobooks!
After using this free version for a month or so, I decided it was more than worth paying for and came back to buy the $2 version. I cant believe there are no reviews!
AudiobookCD is dead simple. Operation is intuitive, and loading a new audiobook is fast and easy -- it just has to be in your Music library on your iPhone first. Listening just works, annoyance-free. The app remembers your place no matter what, even after an app or a phone restart or an iOS update. The listening screen includes a scrolling title/author/track number display, a progress bar with the number of hours/minutes/seconds listened and left to go, arrows for skipping backward and forward one track, and -- the best -- buttons to skip forward or back 15 seconds if you missed something or want to skip something. The free app doesnt seem to be missing any functionality and is supported by an unobtrusive banner ad.
Ive tried a couple of other audiobook apps: First, Downcast, which I use and love for podcasts, but the process for using Downcast to listen to audiobooks is hopelessly complex and in the end just isnt usable. Next, I tried Bookmobile. The paid version of Bookmobile might be OK, but Ill never know because the free version is so crippled I couldnt test it, and I dont pay for apps I cant test first.
AudioBookCD beats them all!
