Casey Sloper

Great app! NO SUBSCRIPTION FEE! All you need to do is set up an account and then buy your audiobook at a very reasonable price. They have a variety of books and good narrators, too. There's also a great sleep setting, where you can set a timer to pause the book after an hour, for example, so that you don't lose your spot if you fall asleep. Highly recommend to all, especially if you're on a budget!

★★★★

Joel Duncan

The idea is great and in the long run will be cheaper than audible and no subscription needed. I haven't bought a book yet, but will do soon. My issue is with the UI. Things aren't simple to find, nobody is going to want to read an instruction manual on how to use the app, just do an app tutorial on the first use, like most apps do. A top notch recommendation and review system is also needed. A book I wanted wasn't on there, so I requested it, I came back later the same day and it was on there ✨

Julia Walker

The reading aspect is a big let down and I was so excited for the concept of x-books. The options are really limited too. I love that it's an ethical alternative though so I'm hoping it makes progress soon

Still no way to listen to 'purchases' on Windows. Still no way to stream to Hi-Fi. So sad this is going to go the way of all British things. Thinking 'good enough' is good enough, and that a lack of respect for mastery of technical details as being paramount before all other concerns since the 20th century.
