Looking for a way to get audiobooks to listen to. Preferably in a format compatible with Apple Books app.

I used Smart Audiobook Player to listen to an audiobook recently and it worked great.

Big ups to Smart Audiobook Player, definitely worth the $2 to upgrade as well. Not required, and you get a 30 day trial, but well worth it.

Voice is a decent FOSS audiobook player, you can find it in the FOSS repo managers (Droidify, Neo-Store, etc.)

Can't recommend this app enough. Pauses when you get map updates, easy to navigate, clean UI.

This one for sure. Listened to the entirety of The Dark Tower series on this, over the course of months. Literally not a single issue or hiccup the entire time. 127 hours worth.

I tried maybe 5 audiobook apps and Smart Audiobook Player was the one I stuck with

Audiobookbay and smart audiobook player is my setup too. I probably got it from a similar thread. My only annoyance is using audiobookbay's search can be annoying sometimes, but altogether I love both.

I wish it had a search function, but other than that it's deffo been my audiobook player of choice for as.long as.i remember

I've listened to thousands of hours of audio books and this is my go to player for sure. I tried a couple other ones again recently and ended up coming back to this one. Simple and easy to use. It does have a problem moving books occasionally if they are in the root directory and not a sub folder. I just make sure my books are in sub folders when i get them.
