SmartAudioBook Player is an app that lets you enjoy all your audiobooks in the easiest possible way. Similar apps offer basically the same features as a standard music player, but Smart AudioBook Player has a few special and interesting options.
While you're playing an audiobook, you can increase or decrease the speed with just a tap. This means you can quickly skip over any parts you've already listened to or just don't want to hear. And thanks to the widget included in your app you can do all this right from your home screen.
As you'd expect, Smart AudioBook Player remembers the exact place you left off listening to an audiobook. In fact, you can have as many active books as you like, and resume listening to any of them at any time.
I have been using this program for a year or so. I have tried many others. This is by far the very best I have ever used. I had a problem ( turned out I was doing something wrong) I did the help thing...See more

Once I processed the implications of DRM-free audio books (Hooray! I can check out long books!), I started looking for an audiobook player app and found Smart AudioBook Player. It has great reviews and offers a 30 day trial of the full version (which costs $1.99 as an in-app purchase).
The app automatically rewinds 30-60 seconds when you start a new listening session, which I like. I usually need a few seconds to remember where I left off. You can rewind manually in 10 second or 1 minute intervals.
I actually use it for various radio programmes I rip to my laptop and thence to my phone to listen to in the work van and it easily copes with a rolling list of files deleted and added to a folder, treating each folder as a book / playlist with its own resume point as you swap between them.
In this case I would actually welcome Play Folder as Audiobook as long as it included the same aggressive smart rewind functionality of SABP which I find so useful to regain context when listening to long radio programmes with frequent Pause/Play while working as a multi-drop driver.
An option to choose how aggressive the automatic rewind should be would be good though: Depending on use case case anything from 0 to 60 could be needed depending on length of pause: 5 seconds for a more or less momentary pause up to 60 seconds for an overnight / next day pause / resumption.
The Audible app for Android is a great way to consume audiobooks. You haveaccess to all the books you've purchased on Audible, and you can downloadthem at will. Plus, the app provides all the bookmarking features you'd expect froma professional application. Unfortunately, if your audiobooks are fromsomewhere other than Audible, you need something a little more flexible.
For non-DRM audiobooks, there are a few stand-out apps. Mort Player andAudiobook Player 2 are the standbys I've been using for a coupleyears, but the newer Smart Audiobook Player is truly an amazing pieceof software. Although it boasts the same features you'd expect from anyaudiobook player, Smart Audiobook Player also includes:
Audiobooks are organized by putting each book, whether it is a singlelarge file or many small files, into its own folder. Smart AudiobookPlayer treats each folder as a separate book and sorts the files insideeach folder by filename. In order to keep audiobook files from appearingin your music collection, a simple .nomedia file can be added to yourroot audiobook folder.
Although the features all work together to make an incredible audiobookplayer, by far my favorite feature is the speed control. By settingplayback speed to 1.2x, the voices are still quite comprehensible, andyou can cram more book into each morning commute. Smart Audiobook Playeris free, but for a $2 in-app purchase, you can unlock the"Full" features permanently, allowing for bookmarking of several books simultaneously,and a few other nifty features. If you listen to audiobooks, but don'tpurchase them all directly from Audible, you owe it to yourself totry Smart Audiobook Player:

Hi there
SO getting back into the iOS world now and slowly trying to get modern recommendations for apps. I haven't used this as my main phone for years, so expect a few questions going forward similar to this one.
I'm looking for an application that will let me read audiobooks in mp3 format on my phone. I know voicedream will, but I actively refuse to use that after the absolutely horrendous treatment of its Android users with changelogs that were about as useless as possible with each and every update. Also the idea of zipping up my files removes any inkling of wanting to use it.
That being said, for anyone who also uses Android, I was using smart audiobook player. Is there anything like that on iOS?
Hi,
I use bookplayer. I'm sorry, I don't have a link, but I know it's in the directory. I'm just curious, why don't you like zipping your books? I like bookplayer, because you can import your books as .zip files, if you choose to do so, but I don't think it's a necessary prerequisite, and it unzips them automatically and imports them. That's much closer to smart audiobook player than voice dream is, although I admit, I use bookplayer and voice dream on iOS, and smart audiobook player and listen audiobook player on my android media player. I hope this helps.
I use BookPlayer for mp3 audiobooks. It's simple to use and accessible. If you import a zipped archive, it will automatically unzip the book for you. But the audiobook does not need to be zipped. The thing I like best about it is that it supports my second gen airPods and it's free.
I've heard of the apps mentioned here and will definitely have a look at them, once I get my new iPhone hopefully for Christmas. I don't know if you are an NLS patron, but if so you might want to check out their BARD app for smartphones. It might not be able to read .mp3 files, but it is an awesome app and is free. Also the native files app is pretty good. I haven't done much with it due to time constraints, but it does mp3 files. Also Dolphin EasyReader might be another free option. Hth and good luck.
I've recently signed up with Audible. I don't know their file format but their books play right on your phone. It's a paid app, as you may know, but, at least in the plan I have, I get one credit per month which means you get a free book.
