AudioBooth: Audiobooks Player

Unfortunately, this is the breast audiobook player in terms of ui and functionality. I say unfortunately because I would very much like to use this fully off line without a server. But I put up with audiobook shelf because this app really is that good. Idk if the developer has considered allowing for local files without the need for a server, but I would pay for that. If I could get the 3-book wide grid, grouped by folder or series, with local files, and a one time purchase, that would be the perfect app

I have been listening to audiobooks for the past four or five years. I have used several different devices, including a PC, and from various sources. AudioBooth blows my mind with the staggering amount of options and the very professional interface. The fact that it also includes a CarPlay and Apple Watch app are just icing on the cake. Some of the features that are included are paid features on other apps. I highly recommend using AudioBooth and supporting the developer.

I have run an Audiobookshelf server for family and friends for a few years now. And in that time I have tested out basically every major ABS client app out there including Prologue, ShelfPlayer, Plappa, SoundLeaf, and even Audiobookself’s own TestFlight beta. And while most of those other clients are fine, I’ve gotta say that thus far I have been extremely pleasantly surprised by how good AudioBooth is. I mean it was a breeze to log into my server and the GUI is great. I also love that you can actually view an ebook inside the app while simultaneously listening to the audiobook. This is great for when you have an audiobook that might have some type of accompanying visual content like in a PDF within the same file folder. That is something even the supposedly “more polished” apps like Plappa cannot do as of yet. But perhaps the most impressive thing about AudioBooth is how it’s absolutely free! So thank you very much to the dev. Keep up the great work!!
