Description

Storyteller is a self-hosted platform for creating and reading ebooks with synced narration. It's made of of three components: the API server, the web interface, and the mobile apps. Together, these components allow you to take audiobooks and ebooks that you already own and automatically synchronize them, as well as read or listen to (or both!) the resulting synced books.

Storyteller provides two relatively unique use cases:

- Providing a better experience for readers that wish to be able to switch between listening to a book in audiobook format and reading it as a digital, visual book
- Providing a guided narration experience for users that would like to listen to a book's narration while reading it.

Storyteller is also self-hosted software. This means that instead of running on servers owned by a company or other organization, it runs on your servers. You own your content and your data, and it will always be available to you!

Comments on Storyteller for Android

★★★★★ Mark Balmer · Mar 2, 2026

This app (and Storyteller) is incredible! Thank you for this wonderful accompaniment to the brilliant Storyteller self-hosted server.

★★★★★ Richard Staringer · Mar 6, 2026

Absolutely amazing in principle. Sadly I have some issues with the new version: 1. You cannot add read aloud files from the phone memory anymore - why would you take that away? 2. When reading ahead the audio doesn't jump to where you are at anymore. I had to sideload version 1.13.3. That version does it all. Even so, this Program absolutely changed the way I read books forever. So even if you have to jump through a few hoops, It's absolutely worth it.

Horrible application, constantly syncing and never works right.
