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. ## Similar extensions and apps - [ListenBook Pro: book player](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id1529716191) — 4.70 / 5 - [Booken](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6550895937) — 4.40 / 5 - [Listen This](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6769473900) - [Offline Watch Audio Player](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6779521140) — 5.00 / 5 - [Sponge Audiobooks](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6755274146) — 5.00 / 5 - [Offline Audiobook Player](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6755364128) — 3.00 / 5 - [Watch Audio Player](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6762309864) — 1.00 / 5 - [AudiV](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6762569349) — 5.00 / 5 - [ChronoListen: Audiobook Player](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6760442800) - [Player for Watch](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6446242162) — 4.30 / 5 - [Wristone: Watch Audio Player](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6789270700) - [WatchAudio](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id6446786448) — 4.60 / 5 --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/id1621926254)
