Description

LibriVox Audio Books provides unlimited access to over 50,000 audio books. Each audiobook can be streamed over the internet or downloaded for later use. The LibriVox Audio Books app features classic best sellers and out of print treasures from every genre of literature in more than 30 languages.
Audio books 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 AudioBook app makes it easy to search the LibriVox catalog of free audio books. You can browse by title, author or genre, look at new recordings, or search by key word. 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 you can return to a book later, and includes unlimited bookmarks and a sleep timer for your convenience.

It’s free and there’s tons of great classics. If you’re into audiobook let me say that again: it’s free. Oh and the ones I listened so far were perfectly read and recorded. Thank you so much for developing this, education should be free for all 😉

Lots of options for listening to classic full free audiobooks; they can be downloaded for listening anywhere. Obviously some readers and their audio (or enunciation) quality may vary, but for a free app and service of Audiobooks, in my experience this is second to none.

The app is a great way to learn English

I never would have gotten into Sherlock, first the books then the excellent tv show, if I had not been told of this app. I have thoroughly enjoyed it and I am very thankful for the time that many people put into this in order that I may listen to many books!

LibriVox is a good idea in theory, but in practice most of the readers are poor stylistically, so that most works cannot be heard enjoyably, and one must make do with what one can find that is read at least tolerably, rather than what one was looking for.

Excellent app

Have used this book listening app for a long time and continue to find it very useful and enjoyable on the many occasions where I am unable to read but can listen. It is rare that the readers are not clear and pleasant of voice and I am most appreciative of the time and effort given to this effort. Thanks to all who make this possible.

Still a fantastic resource, free audiobooks!

This app is a bit long in the tooth but hell; it still works. Finally get around to those classic books you’ll never actually read or pay for as audiobooks.
The app makes it easy to find the audiobooks you want, just be sure to try a couple different versions and pick the one you like best, some of them are WAY better than others so it’s worth shopping a bit before settling.
Overall works like audible. Tracks your position etc.
Love to listen to classic books while I go to sleep.
If you’re not sure where to start listen to Frankenstein! What a great book.

Such a great App

LibriVox is tremendous once you accept the caveats that all books are in the public domain and not all readers are outstanding. Most of the readers - likely all - put tremendous effort into the audio production. The main problem is that some readers have quite strong accents but in a short time even they are fully comprehensible. I have enjoyed many books and greatly value the service - it is especially valuable to help me pass my exercise hours so pleasantly.

Too much extra talking

Version 7.3.1
Every chapter starts with the same opening title, part, chapter etc. Disrupts the flow of the story and takes you out of it completely. All they need to say is the chapter number. I can understand why they do it initially but it should be edited out when it is posted.

NO SURPRISE CHARGES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is an App you won’t regret downloading.

Lots of classic titles.

This app works in the background while using other apps. Also works with phone locked. My only real issue is the annoyance of the current audio book turning off while searching though the library and chapters. Also needs a better locked phone app screen, with the ability to rewind and forward without opening app. Other wise amazing. Good job.
Ps- David Clarke is my hero.

Looks good but..

So I love this app. It’s wonderful, enriches my mind what with all these humorous and thoughtful books. However, a few different ideas. One, might we be able to see ALL the books a certain favorite reader, even if they are only part of “LibriVox volunteers” or “dramatic reading”? A good reader I like only had two books read by her when I research her, but in reality just plays parts in a lot other dramatic ones. Two, timer for stopping the book only works if you don’t get pause it. At all. Even if that means missing the best part of your Jane Austen because you want to stop listening at a decent time and you can’t pause your book to talk to your kid about where the ham is or why they're going to bathroom at eleven at night for the fifth time in an hour. Just saying. Help me out here!

Great company
