User Reviews

ListenBook is a flexible, file-based audiobook player with an easy upload flow and a simple UI. Users can load content from various sources (Documents, folders, direct web links) and enjoy features like bookmarking, detailed notes, an equalizer, and variable playback speed. However, it has no built-in library of books, relies on users to provide content, and some reviews report performance issues (slowness, crashes, speed-change stutter). Support access and offline watch functionality are limited, and some users find it pricey. Overall, strong value for personal files but with caveats.
Pros
  • Easy upload of personal audio files with a simple, user-friendly interface.
  • Flexible file sourcing: load from Documents, folders, or direct web links.
  • Rich playback features including an equalizer, adjustable speed, pitch control, and easy album-cover editing.
  • Strong bookmarking and notes capabilities for detailed playback markers.
  • Active development and responsiveness to user feedback.
Cons
  • No built-in library; content must be supplied by the user.
  • Performance issues such as slowness and occasional crashes, including volume-related shutdowns.
  • Playback speed changes require going into settings and can cause stutter.
  • Support channel (contact page) can be nonfunctional.
  • Limited offline features (no Apple Watch offline support) and some users consider the app pricey.

There are a few hiccups when trying to rewind or fast forward. It seems to lose the place and get “stuck” and I have to shut the app down re-open and start over. But otherwise I’m happy with functionality. It has the ability to slow down or speed up narration, and a sleep timer.

Only six hours a day limit otherwise you have to pay That’s why I only give it a one star

So I use audible to my audiobooks and have hundreds of titles but I’ve had issues with the recent digital “ownership” problem going on. So I did some research and figured out a way to get my own audiobooks that are mine to keep. The issue then is having a reliable audio player that you can upload the files to. This app has been one of many I use and I absolutely love it! It has a simple interface and uploading files is pretty easy. There can definitely be some minor improvements but the team seems to accept feedback well and I can see them continuing to work on the app. Highly recommend if you’re using MP3 or M4B files. I haven’t tried other files yet so I cannot comment!
