ABS+ for Audiobookshelf

A small, fast player for your own Audiobookshelf server. Stream or download audiobooks and podcasts, and pick up where you left off on any device.

ABS+ is a small, fast player for your own Audiobookshelf server. Sign in with your server address, username and password, and your books and podcasts are right there.

LISTEN • Stream audiobooks and podcast episodes from your server • Books split into many files play as one, with a single timeline • Lock screen, Control Center, headphone and AirPlay controls • Skip back and forward 30 seconds, playback speed from 0.8× to 2× • Picks up where you left off, even after the app was closed

PROGRESS THAT FOLLOWS YOU • Progress syncs to your server, so other Audiobookshelf apps and the web player stay up to date • Continue listening shows what you're in the middle of, from any device • Share progress on a book with another account (for example, listening together with a partner). You choose the titles and confirm, and the app asks before jumping to their position.

OFFLINE • Download whole books or single podcast episodes; downloads keep going in the background • When the server can't be reached, ABS+ switches to offline mode by itself and shows only what's downloaded • See and remove all downloads in one place

ORGANIZE • Cover grid for every library, with search by title or author • Series from your server • Favorites that sync across your devices • Recently played on this device

PRIVATE BY DESIGN ABS+ only talks to the server you sign in to. No accounts with us, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. The app is open source.

ABS+ needs an Audiobookshelf server (audiobookshelf.org) that you or someone you know runs. ABS+ is an independent app, not affiliated with or endorsed by the Audiobookshelf project.
