Audiobooks.com: Get audiobooks

This app is fairly easy to use, has a good selection of books, great narrators, and has graphic versions for some of the books, which is fun. :) I just have 2 complaints, 1) They have the option for getting 2 books for one credit, which is nice, but that is from a genre of there choice, it's not usually from a genre/section that I may like based from brooks on my wish list, which would be ideal. 2) The credits cost as much as the monthly membership payment, to me that is a bit expensive, I can find/get books cheaper than that other places, I feel like one credit should be maybe half the price, considering that the only way you can get the books from your wish list is through using the monthly credit they give you. I can listen through several long books 13h in a month but I can't afford that when the credits are so expensive. And I have one requests, when I first started listing, about a year or so ago, you had this wonderful option of choosing a genre and using your monthly credit to purchase what you had put in there for that month. Now, with this way, you didn't get to keep the books but you got to listen to as many books as you liked in that genre for that month. If I wanted to keep a book, in my library, I would have to individually purchase it, which was totally fine and worth the option. This option worked really well for me especially since I go through so many books. Will you please bring this option back, Audiobooks?!!!

As I have gotten older and graduated college and began my life as a full time employee I lost my time to read that I loved so very much. As life goes it gets crazier. Now as a mom and full time employee who travels 30 plus minutes one way to work I only had my car time to myself. I finally tried to listen to some of my old favorite books before trying new things to see if I really liked listening to books, and obviously I did. I finished my first book on audible within days and couldn’t get another credit for another month! Well I didn’t want to wait and I couldn’t figure out (on the app) how to get more credits. So I started searching and found Audiobooks! And I have to say it is set up way better and the ability to buy more credits within the app whenever I want is so nice. That way I always have something to listen to on my long drives. Only down side is my “bookmarks” are off occasionally and I have to search or skip to the last part I was at. Otherwise I am very happy with the app!

Ok app, great service. Have only listened to one book so far but it was one of the 28 hour books in the Dark Tower series by Stephen King so I think I gave it a fair shot. I’d prefer if it allowed you to use chapter selections instead of choosing by track which just wasn’t the same since they aren’t labeled to give you an idea of what part of the book each track covers. Also the scrolling could use some work - it won’t allow you to simply drag to a different part. If I lost my place (used the book to help me fall asleep some nights) I’d have a hard time finding it again the next day - I’d screenshot the time I started and I’d then have to find the track that was closest then skip forward or backward in 30 second increments. There has to be a better way. But overall I like the app and they have a large selection of books. There hasn’t been a single book I’ve searched for that wasn’t available. Although the search function is also lacking. I don’t think it can find books through a partial title search. I tried searching for “Stephen king dark tower” and it gave me an error. Tried searching for “Stephen king song of” and got an error. He’s written so many books that simply scrolling through a search just for his name wasn’t finding the specific one I wanted. Finally searched for “dark tower vi” and found it. Maybe the coders don’t actually use the app, I don’t know, but I’m sure it would be better if they did.
