LibriVox Audio Books Pro provides unlimited access to over 40,000 audiobooks - with no ads. Each audiobook can be streamed over the internet or downloaded for later use. Audiobooks from LibriVox are free thanks to the dedicated work of hundreds of volunteers who record, edit and distribute the books. New releases are prepared daily, and the entire catalog spans the breadth of world literature, including novels, history, biography, short stories, poetry and more in both fiction and non-fiction. The LibriVox Audio Books app makes it easy to search for audio books and classic radio dramas. You can browse by title, author or genre, look at new recordings, or search by keyword. Because the books are free, you can listen to as much or as little of a book as you like with no cost. The app remembers your position, so when you return to a book later, you can start listening at the place where you left off. Unlimited bookmarks and a sleep timer are included for your convenience.

Best Audio Book App
I've been listening to this free-audio book app for over 10 years. Still the best app out there! NOTE to DEVELOPER: Only one frustration and don't know exactly when developer changed this but it's really annoying. For some reason the developer removed the go back or forward by chapter feature or to let you start the book over. I often fall asleep while listening and need to go back one or more chapters, can no longer do it. Or when going between listening on iPhone to iPad I need to go ahead a few chapters. Really annoying. Please add features back in.
Thanks LibriVox app
I had a technical problem with the app and they fixed it and they wrote me back, an actual human email note thanking me for letting them know and explaining what went wrong. I’m grateful. Plus, this app seems to be the most convenient way to listen to LibriVox, and I’ve tried several. I listen everyday and have for years. To be clear the app is not affiliated with the LibriVox organization.
Scroll bar gone
As others have mentioned, the recent update removed the rapid access scroll feature, which I often used. Also removed were the quick chapter fwd/rev controls. The font was decreased too. The app is not as useful as before.
Just lost important functionality
I really like LibriVox and it’s volunteer readers. I’ve listened to books as I go to sleep for years. However, an update seems to have eliminated the chapter scroll bar. If I fall asleep during a chapter, I now have to start at the beginning and fast jump in 30 second increments to find my place again. I used to be able to move the slider to any point in the chapter.
Don’t recommend updating
I recently updated the ap and they removed the navigation bar that allows you to quickly change to different part of story. Interestingly, it still appears in the photos of the app in the ap store. Also buttons are much, much smaller making them harder to use. There is so much screen space that thus was completely unnecessary. I highly regret updating the ap. Wish there was a way I could revert back to original.
Everyone Needs this app!
Learn for a lifetime and be a better person. It will look good on you! First step - all books by William Walker Atkinson….and go!
Great Find
I came across this site while looking for a free audible book. It’s a wonderful source of classics and interesting reads. Most of the narrators are very good and easy to listen to.
