Looking for a way to get audiobooks to listen to. Preferably in a format compatible with Apple Books app.

      Big ups to Smart Audiobook Player, definitely worth the $2 to upgrade as well. Not required, and you get a 30 day trial, but well worth it.

      Voice is a decent FOSS audiobook player, you can find it in the FOSS repo managers (Droidify, Neo-Store, etc.)

      Audiobookbay and smart audiobook player is my setup too. I probably got it from a similar thread. My only annoyance is using audiobookbay’s search can be annoying sometimes, but altogether I love both.

      This one for sure. Listened to the entirety of The Dark Tower series on this, over the course of months. Literally not a single issue or hiccup the entire time. 127 hours worth.

      I’ve listened to thousands of hours of audio books and this is my go to player for sure. I tried a couple other ones again recently and ended up coming back to this one. Simple and easy to use. It does have a problem moving books occasionally if they are in the root directory and not a sub folder. I just make sure my books are in sub folders when i get them.
