User reviews
The rewind and fast forward buttons are extremely glitchy in audiobooks with chapters, so trying to rewind by a few seconds might make you go back an entire chapter or more and have no way of figuring out where you were before. Other than that, no problems.... As long as you don't want to ever rewind to re-listen to a sentence or something.

It was better when it was ad free. Greedy app needs to sell advertising for free books read by volunteers for free? Thank you for your quick response.I understand everything comes at a price. Especially in the world today. Could you at turn down the volume level of the adds they are painfully loud in my ear buds. I listen to books all day at work

Funny thing, before I paid for the Ad Free version, It used to be great, but for the past few months it hasn't worked properly. It does not play the book continuously, it just stops after each chapter. You have to click the next chapter, and even the it may or may not play.
