Wish there was a percentage number
Missjordanne
I adore Audible, it’s kinda expensive but the selection is unprecedented. It’s so great for encouraging more reading, as you can multitask while consuming a story. I love how there is brand new and popular books on here, and you also don’t have to wait like you might on Libby. In terms of the app, I wish you could purchase through the app. I wish that you could change the timer to view the percentage you were through the book, and that the overall progress timer was visible on books that were loaded in 2 parts. Finally, I wish that there were cost effective subscriptions for multiple books per month as I read maybe 2 audiobooks a week and find that Audible gets expensive so I rotate between this, Libby (which is connected to your library card, meaning that it’s free BUT they will only have a certain amount of copies of a book and you need to wait until a copy is available - like a normal library book - which can be loooong with new or popular books but has a STUNNING app interface that I believe is more intuitive than Audible), and less frequently I’ll listen to Scribd but the selection is average compared to either of the first two I choose and the app isn’t as pleasant as even Audible. Overall, I love Audible because of the range and I would keep it purely based off of that however I also enjoy the interface and the experience of the books. Overall, I
Good service, Bad support
CaptainJamMan
Audible was reasonably good while I was using it though some would argue a bit on the pricey side. It’s a good service if you can’t find time to read yourself or just need to relax and listen to a book. If you try and cancel the service, boy are you in for a rough ride. For a start you can’t do this via the mobile app and have to go through their website. When you do eventually find the section and go through with it, there are no guarantees that you won’t continue to be billed. I cancelled and despite my membership saying it’s not active now as well as a confirmation email I was still charged at the end of the following month. Cancelled 21st Feb, membership officially ended on the 3rd of March I believe and then charged again on the 31st. You go through their first call option which is some sort of online call (after fighting disheartened through more roundabouts of help options) and the call just cancels after a few minutes of waiting, repeatedly. Try the toll free number and well guess what, it says it is not currently active!!! Classic scam warning signs but Audible isn’t a scam. I cancelled cause I don’t have a job now but I’m waiting to see whether some of my food money will disappear at the end of this month if I get charged again. Not happy!!
Complete rubbish
bestappevernot
I guess I shouldn’t have had such high expectations but really you would think that by 2022 you could be excused for thinking that apps should just work. This has to be the worst app I’ve ever downloaded. Why can’t you use credits to purchase in app? Why can’t you purchase credits in app? Why is there no link to purchase from search? Why do items I have finally figured out how to purchase say they’ve gone to my library but don’t show in my library in app? Why does the player freeze? If you’ve ever been worried about being ripped off through an app then don’t use this one! The selection of books cannot be beaten but this app is simply useless. I hope the designers have been arrested tied up and receive a sound thrashing every day for the pain they have inflicted on so many. Absolute asscrack. You even get forced to give a one star review even if you want to give none. Don’t use this rubbish!
