Very nice being able to stream my own audiobooks!

Works great for a self-hosted audiobook server/client solution

Super crashy, didn't keep my place so I had to find where it left off myself.

Anna Knock

Downloading for offline playback doesn't work - it says that the file is 0b and than nothing happens

Have used booksoinc for about three years now. The dev is responsive and the app works well for self hosted audio books.

Zach Goold

Did not work!!!!

gee

Mostly does what it says. Good enough.

Josh Wolabaugh

Love the app but curious what is the meaning behind the thumbtack?

Tony Stegall

Good way to manage your own audiobook library, although a bit crashy. Supports searches and whole book downloads, as well as streaming. Easy to use with 3rd party audiobook players like Smart Audiobook Player, or Listen.

Hi Popeen, love your app, thank you for making it. Any chance to fix LDAP auth? Pretty please? Mil gracias!
