Comments on LibriVox Audio Books for Android

★★★★★ Bazif · Aug 2, 2026

I absolutely love this app, it's free, and it's easy to use, and it even allows you to download the audiobook

★★★★★ Katharina Bloem · Sep 18, 2026

Wonderful, but... I'd love to have a search criterion for accents. Listening to British authors read with non-British accents is painful. And there's no way to know it until you start to listen 😢

★★★★★ Alie B.Riles · Jul 31, 2026

My favorite place for audiobooks! Classics, Free, often multiple narrators for a book. 5 STARS. Been using for years!

★★★★★ Bonnie Parr · Aug 18, 2026

Wonderful app to for LibriVox recordings

★★☆☆☆ Keith Mcilroy · Aug 19, 2026

Every book I tried, about 10 all were incomplete. Great books but way too annoying. Definitely annoying adds as well

★★☆☆☆ Erster Zweiter · Aug 17, 2026

Five stars for the LibriVox project. This app here however is not connected with the project. The developers use the free audiobooks and sell them for money or ad revenues. And the app gets worse and worse over the years. New UI, new bling. But broken functions don't get repaired, and more and more stuff breaks. Unbelievable.

★★☆☆☆ Brandj F · Sep 20, 2026

I honestly wish I could choose to use a previous version of the app, it used to work perfectly, I could easily choose a different chap & then minimize the app to continue listening. Now I never know if the app will just revert to the previously played chap & stop playing. I got used to that nonsense, but the new updates are worse. I don't understand why the sleep timer was changed, it was perfectly functional, and now it's less convenient. Newest issue is that the play button no longer works.

★☆☆☆☆ Joyce · Sep 20, 2026

I really love this app, BUT lately with each update something gets messed up! At least I can delete a whole book at once now again, so that's fixed BUT now you can't skip forwards or back with 10/30secs with your headset!! It just skips to a full chapter! I hate it more broken stuff with the Bluetooth functions: if you pause a book it doesn't remember where you paused and when resuming it starts somewhere way back, can be minutes, can be a chapter. Pausing only works on the left.
