## Description

The AA Speakers - Speaker Tapes app lets you listen to recovery speakers, workshops, and AA audio books from Alcoholics Anonymous (a 12-step program) anytime with a wifi or cellular connection. It features 600+ speakers from AA conventions worldwide, with details about where they are from and where they are speaking. It also includes The Joe and Charlie Big Book Study, the Big Book AA Audio Book, and The 12 Steps and 12 Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous Audio Book.

This app is ideal for times when you can't attend a meeting—carry recovery with you wherever you go. Note: the content of this app is not being sold; merely the software that plays it.

## Review summary

Users praise the app for its vast AA talk library and recovery benefits, plus handy playback and offline listening. However, stability and playback reliability are recurring issues, with crashes, audio problems, and downloads not sticking. Resume position can be inconsistent, and some reviews cite navigation and maintenance concerns. Overall, a powerful recovery tool when it works, but reliability and ongoing maintenance need improvement.

### Pros

- Huge library of AA talks and resources (BigBook audio, Joe & Charlie, etc.).
- Significant positive impact on sobriety; can provide hope and feel like being in a meeting when you can't attend.
- Useful playback features: resume where you left off, rewind/forward, pause, and filter by tape length; supports offline listening via downloads.
- Convenient for on-the-go listening (car, walking, exercising) and easy to use in daily routines.
- Developer responsiveness and ongoing updates contribute to a sense of reliability and support.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and overall instability on launch and during use.
- Playback issues and audio quality problems (static, volume inconsistencies) and downloaded files sometimes not sticking.
- Inconsistent resume behavior (sometimes loses place when closing the app) and difficulty returning to where you left off.
- Navigation/UX challenges and perceived lack of ongoing development or support (difficult to navigate, limited updates, and hard to contact developer).
