Reviews for Audible: Audio Entertainment

Clips and bookmarks is one of the most important features for the user to retain information after listening to a book. But it’s one of the most ignored features as well. You can’t read your notes beyond the first few words. Earlier you could tap to expand and be able to read your fell note […]

My main issue with this app is how incredibly difficult it is to refine my search within the audible plus catalog. Which is frustrating considering I’m paying. I’ve gone back and forth with memberships for years. I own MANY books. I never get recommendations in the plus catalog based on my library and it’s always […]

Price is pretty steep for only 1 book credit per month and the moderate functionality of the app. Combine that with controlling how long you need to listen to something before you can leave a review on it and the lack of consistency of available titles from a series and there’s not much left for […]

I like audible. The issue is the app for me it malfunctions when I wanted to work the most. Play back button works when it wants to and then when you download it doesn’t necessarily save it to your phone so if you don’t have internet access you don’t get access to the book. I […]

The app should be an audiobook player, but is seems to exist primarily to try to get you to buy more audiobooks. The app loads into a “Home” screen in name only: it’s actually a storefront with suggestions for what to buy/use credits on. Every book ends with a preview for a suggested listen, completing […]

First, I absolutely adore the vast selection of books to choose from, and have had MANY suggestions they’ve given me that were “included in your membership” that have grown to be favorites. Second, the app is buggy as hell with the tech help not very helpful. I’ve had the same issues through 4 different phones. […]

When one of my favorite authors dropped a new title, I came back to Audible after 6 months using another app. Imagine my disappointment when the app crashes anytime another app sends a notification. Maps and Messenger sometimes crash it, but the camera “click” when taking pictures is pretty much guaranteed. For someone making package […]

Not enough books to choose from, and shorter books are the same cost as longer books. If the book is eight hours or less, it shouldn’t be a full credit. Or maybe you should have a plan for manga listening so you can listen to three volumes for one credit–I’d pay for an add-on so […]

App keeps getting worse and worse! There are now ads at the end of every book! You pay for the service, and you buy the books, and there are still advertisements. You can queue a title to play next or use collections to play books in order but both are glitchy. They also removed the […]

I’m having the same issue many others have mentioned – no matter what my settings are, when my phone connects to Bluetooth in my car, Audible automatically starts up. Not only that – it starts playing a book I’ve already marked finished and archived. It’s EXTREMELY aggravating not only that the issue exists in the […]

Not much good to listen to anymore. Every couple of weeks, starting last month, they remove just a little bit more of the good books to listen to. When I started this membership, I understood the 1 credit and some free books to read. I found a pretty good amount of free(with the $12.99 mo. […]

I would love to hide the finished podcast episodes I’ve listened to and have the option of listening from old to new without having to go back and start the next episode. there’s also a spot where I can see all my podcasts in one area, but it doesn’t give me the oldest like it […]

Largely enjoy the app. Fair prices and good sales. However, in recent weeks the timer has been acting up. Went from changing styles every few times I used it to simply not shutting the book off when the timer ends. I’d also like my stand-alone books all in one place without having to move them […]

Too much advertising! Open the app and it bombards you with sales and begs for subscriptions. After you make a purchase and try to go view your library you’re bombarded with more sales of your wishlist in your library. It is CONSTANT and aggravating and needs to stop. Let me view my own audiobooks that […]

Terrible app. The only reason to use the service is the Monopoly Amazon has on the market. I don’t think I have gotten more than a week and a half without the app deleting everything that’s been downloaded. New problem has started recently, app keeps “starting you where you left off on another device” which […]

Books not downloading, have been fighting for a good 30 min to an hour to get anything to download. App has devolved into utter rubbish, but hey it has AI now, that’s what we all really want right? The problems with the app are persistent and dont seem to be a priority to fix. It […]

I love Audible so much usually but I just ran into a huge problem. I went to listen to my favorite series that I own all 5 books of and only one of the books was in my library. The other 4 were just gone. After chatting with customer service, they gave me credits to […]

I love that i can “read” books while I work. craft. cook and a myriad of other things. its a decent app, I wish the previews actually previewed a bit of the actual book rather than opening credits that you can’t skip past. Some authors voices can be annoying, so I hate to spend the […]

The App functions these days, not well, but it’s like it has multiple versions all fighting internally to be the version. so I never know what I’m going to get. Some days all my bookmarks disappear sometimes they reappear. Sometimes I can view the most recent bookmark first, sometimes I can’t. Sometimes the “end of […]

I used to love this app, but lately, it’s been driving me crazy. Regardless of the settings, it starts on its own, both in the car and when I’m using earbuds. I’ve tried turning off the auto start setting, but it does no good. It frequently stops when I’m listening with my earbuds while walking, […]
