ABS Admin: Audiobookshelf

The control panel for your Audiobookshelf server, with a built-in ebook reader and a simple player. Manage, fix, back up, read and listen, right from your phone.

ABS Admin is the app your Audiobookshelf server was missing. Manage your whole library, read your ebooks, and press play, all from your phone.

Try it right now with no server: tap "Explore a Demo" and the entire app works with sample data.

LISTEN & READ

• A clean home that opens on your books, not on menus
• Search every library and tap to play or read
• Continue Listening and Continue Reading pick up exactly where you left off
• Browse any library as a wall of covers
• Built-in player: play, skip, chapters, speed, bookmarks, lock screen, background audio, progress synced to your server
• Built-in reader for EPUB, PDF, and comics (CBZ): themes, fonts, size and spacing, search, bookmarks, and a Dyslexia mode with wider spacing and ragged edges for easier reading
• Want downloads, CarPlay, Apple Watch, or a sleep timer? A quiet link hands the book to Lull, our full audiobook player

MANAGE YOUR SERVER

• Edit metadata: title, author, narrator, series, genres, tags, description
• Quick match and fix missing covers, one book or the whole library
• Clean Up: rename or delete a genre, tag, or narrator across every book at once, and split messy imported labels like "Paranormal, Contemporary, Urban" into separate genres in one tap
• Series, collections, and playlists
• Move a book between libraries, something even the web app cannot do
• Upload audiobooks and ebooks from iCloud Drive, Dropbox, Google Drive, or anywhere the Files app reaches
• Podcasts: add shows by search or feed, import OPML, download old episodes, clean up the back catalog
• Users: create, edit, set passwords, roles, permissions, and per library access
• Backups: create, download, restore, and schedule
• Send an ebook straight to your Kindle
• Listening dashboard: who is listening now, full session history, daily hours, top listeners, and a Year in Review
• Create and configure libraries, run scans, open RSS feeds, and set up notifications

SAFE BY DESIGN

• Destructive actions are guarded: file deletion is off by default and asks you to type to confirm
• Moving a book copies it first and removes the original only after the copy succeeds

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

• Talks only to your own server with your own account
• No analytics, no tracking, no data collected

ABS Admin is an independent companion app and is not affiliated with the Audiobookshelf project. It needs your own Audiobookshelf server, or use the demo to look around.
