User Reviews

This app has (and the server application have) all the makings of something great, but has some progress yet to make. The latest version now allows you to play audio books, but the Android Auto portion doesn't allow you to launch a book. If you launch the book on the phone while connected, you can then control playback and see that it is playing. Additionally, the Android Auto is lacking controls, like playback speed and jump back/ahead X seconds. But I know it wil continue to improve! ♥️

Gets the job done but leaves you wanting more. When trying to read cbz, you can't navigate to the correct page via the page select menu. It just keeps scrolling through all the pages without stopping. App also won't remember where your progress is on a cbz file, or perhaps it remembers on open but just keeps scrolling anyway. Would also like to be able to zoom on cbz as currently the image is fixed size and that's not always appropriate on a smaller screen. regular text file books work well
