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.

Recent reviews

I’d like to give this app a better rating based on playback features but the transfer to Apple Watch makes this a deal breaker if that is the reason you purchased this app. Their disclaimer noting slow Bluetooth speeds are limited by hardware constraints isn’t cutting it. I’m going to ask the App Store for a refund.

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.
