1. 5/5Love this new App! It is great to help my local Bookstore!

   I have enjoyed the app so far. I am anxious to see how they will succeed! I want local businesses to profit from booksellers too! The local businesses feature the authors and that increases sales too! They need to get some credit for all of the extra expenses they put out for promotions. I certainly appreciate all my local bookstore does in our community! They help our local community so much and they help literacy too! We need audiobooks to help with learning difficulties and other issues. So audiobooks are not just for lazy readers! They help with reading comprehension and memory issues. They also can assist with sight loss. They are helpful with Dyslexia and attention deficit disorder problems. I like them for relaxing and stress reduction. Mental health issues are often reduced while reading entertaining books and laughing is always great medicine! So audiobooks are great ways to pass the time when you have to wait in lines or in traffic. Don’t waste your time or your mind, READ!

2. 5/5While You Were Out

   I have just finished this remarkable memoir of life in the Irish Catholic Kissinger family, read by author Meg Kissinger. This is the first audio book experience for me and I am absolutely going to continue this format for enjoying the great stories that are available. Listening to Meg’s compilation of her family’s trials, tribulations, tragedies as well as love, care, compassion and loyalty in her own Milwaukee- accented voice was especially meaningful for me. There is humor mixed with horror as a mom and dad struggle with their own mental illness while raising 8 children. Throughout their lives, love and loyalty allow 6 of the children to survive the traumas/illness that they endured growing up. I highly recommend this well written book with its many lessons and information about mental illness. Great read (listen) for someone who falls asleep with paper copies! Janice Julius

3. 4/5Amazing audio app!

   I absolutely love this app. A friend recommended this to me as an alternative to a specific big name, and I honestly love being able to set the store I want to support. It’s simple to understand how to navigate, yes it is a little confusing having to purchase from the website, it’s awesome that the audiobook is immediately available on the app. The only thing that keeps this from being a 5 is that there isn’t an easy way to tell what order a book series goes in if it doesn’t have the number in the title/image. It would be nice if there was an easier indicator on book order, yes you can sort, but unfortunately I have learned that the sort system isn’t perfect, and doesn’t organize them in numeric order. Other than that, I highly recommend this app if you are looking for something user friendly and an easy way to support local.

4. 5/5Recommend as an alternative to less ethical options

   As an alternative it is fairly solid and their ethics seem to be good so I would recommend the platform to those seeking an ethical option. There are a few drawbacks that hopefully will be addressed. As of now, the app does not offer background play which is problematic for an audio medium. When listening you cannot browse the catalog which is also very limiting. Many publishers seem not to work with the platform right now so the selection is more limited than ideal. Currently new users get 3 free credits which is a nice deal, but not enough is available for credit purchase. I think the app could use some serious improvement in areas most other apps are capable. This would make it a more formidable competitor, but for the sake of a company just being decent and seemingly moral? Rare enough to give it 5 stars.

5. 4/5Love the concept; the app not so much

   I switched from audible to libro after getting frustrated I’d lose “my” books because audible took them off. Between that and not wanting to feed the rich, I found this alternative. I’m happy with the price, the product library, and that I own the books. The app is frustrating. The sleep timer doesn’t work. I listen to audiobooks every night at bedtime and have for my entire life. I miss the days of tape decks and listening to one side of the tape until it automatically turned off. CDs took some adjustment as they were generally too long. I could use my laptop and shut the lid when I was ready to sleep. But when mp3 became the medium so too did sleep timers become a thing. Why in 2026 I can get an app without a functional sleep timer 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have submitted help ticket and hopefully customer service/tech support gains this review a star or two.
