Simple Reader: Audio Player

Make time to listen. Simple Reader is a focused audio player for the files you already own. Import audiobooks, lectures, recordings, and other audio from Files, then keep your place with simple playback controls and bookmarks.

YOUR AUDIO, READY OFFLINE Import supported audio files into your private library and listen without an app account or internet connection.

KEEP YOUR PLACE Save manual bookmarks, automatically bookmark when you pause, and resume from your furthest saved place. Choose a short rewind before a bookmark to ease back into your listening.

LISTEN YOUR WAY Adjust playback speed from 0.5× to 2×, skip forward or back 10 seconds, and continue listening in the background with Lock Screen and Control Center controls.

OPTIONAL BOOKMARK SYNC Connect Google Drive or iCloud to sync bookmark and progress metadata between compatible devices. Your audio files and file names stay on your device. Import the same audio file on each device to match its bookmarks.

Simple Reader has no ads or subscriptions. Audio content is supplied by you. Optional cloud sync requires a Google or iCloud account.
