FAQ

Questions, answered.

Why is the Audiobooks app free?

I've been listening to 30 to 50 audiobooks a year since 2008. The app is my hobby, so it's free. Converting ebooks is free too, with on-device voices. If you want to support me, convert a book with premium AI narration instead, paid once per book.

What audio formats can it play?

Your own MP3 and M4B files, no DRM. It reads chapters from the file or its metadata and picks up cover art on its own. Every book remembers where you stopped.

Can I stream from Audiobookshelf or Jellyfin?

Yes. Point it at your own Audiobookshelf or Jellyfin server to stream your library or download books for offline listening. Nothing goes through a third party.

Can it turn an EPUB into an audiobook?

Yes. Import an EPUB and convert it with free on-device voices, or premium AI narration when you want better quality. The finished book plays offline with chapters.

Does the app track me or need an account?

No account, no ads, no tracking. It all runs on your device, and you can back up your files to your own iCloud.

Which devices does it work on?

iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro. You also get home screen widgets, Siri Shortcuts, and game controller support.

How do I get audiobooks onto my iPhone?

Import from Files, iCloud, or AirDrop, or send them from your browser over Wi-Fi. After that, books play offline with bookmarks, a sleep timer, and speeds up to 4x.
