The audiobook player is solid, offering bookmarks, variable playback speed, chapter navigation, and a handy sleep mode - plus multitasking mode for background downloading and playback. If you’re an avid reader, it’s probably worth investing in Premium Plus as the bonus credit and 30% discount will save you money in the longer term. You’ll also get a 30% discount on any additional content purchased from the Premium catalog, which includes bestsellers and the latest releases, as well as exclusive Audible Originals. You can save titles to your library or download them for offline listening.Īudible Premium Plus costs $15 per month and gives you all the benefits of Plus as well as a bonus credit per month, which can be redeemed against any title in the Premium selections. Audible Plus costs $8 per month and gives you a credit to exchange for any audiobook, as well as unlimited streaming and listening to content in the Audible Plus catalog - anything that’s marked with the “included” tag. You can choose from two memberships to access Audible’s top-notch collections, both with a 30-day free trial that allows you to test out the player first. That’s one of the largest available, and includes the most recent and bestselling books, as well as plenty of newspapers and magazines.
What’s more, audiobooks in the Play book store are often priced lower than on Audible - and there’s a wide range of free books too, perfect for that week before payday or discovering new authors or genres.Īudible is a popular audiobook publisher (owned by Amazon and compatible with Amazon devices l ike newer Kindles), and its own app is still the most popular audiobook player around, with over 450,000 titles in its audio library. Go to your library and you’ll automatically be shown a list of audiobook versions of books you’ve recently read or have in your wishlist - pretty handy.
We love that the preview feature exists, as there’s nothing worse than downloading an audiobook only to find the narrator’s voice dull or jarring. The app is totally free and there’s no subscription - just preview audiobooks in the Google Play Books store, then choose what you’d like to buy and download it to your account. There’s a handy snooze timer, for those who like to read in bed. The app stores your progress, so it’s easy to pick up reading where you left off, and the controls are intuitive, allowing you to easily skip ahead, jump to a specific chapter, or configure playback speed. Google Play Books lets you listen to your purchased audiobooks across a range of platforms and devices, from your iPad to your Android phone. We’ll kick off with one of the most popular audiobook - and reading - apps out there.
