The best tool for the job! The only feature I wish it had that it doesn't is a way to access home servers to stream audiobooks, I have a large collection on my computer that I use as a media server and have to remember which audiobooks I have transferred to my phone when I take a trip, however this may just be an Android issue as Android makes that difficult in the first place. Also the casting can be a little spotty at times, but honestly those are small, nit-picky problems.

Great app overall! It's the best app I could find for listening to your own audiobooks. It has everything you and is stable. That said, there is room for improvements. - When the app is open the notification bar, a swipe should remove it permanently and close the app. I found that it will come back into the notification bar. You can hit the 'x' and that works, but a swipe should do the same. - The UI seems dated. Libby app's UI is something to strive for. Take a look at their audiobook plyr

Something that happens rarely, but has been inconvenient when it does happen, is with the app closed down (swiped away from the previously opened view), the app will start playing the current book when the power button is pressed to open the phone. The problem is that I don't have media turned on unless headphones are plugged in, so the book is just playing away for how ever long I'm on the phone. There's no notification and the app is definitely closed. Edit: it is CLOSED completely. Gone.

Please try to close the app using menu--Exit or "x" button in the notification.
Thank you.
