Works perfectly, Read the Directions!!! With so many saying this did not work I was leery... But it absolutely does work, and is much better than the free Audiobooks app. However it will appear to be broken if you do not follow the correct steps, or if you fail to keep it open while downloading chapters. 1) Search for a book and click the "Add Book" button, this does not download the book it only adds it to your list of books. 2) Click the "My Books" button at the bottom. 3) Select the book which will bring up the book info and chapters. 4) Now either download the whole book or individual chapters. If not on a WiFi network I suggest the individual chapters. 5) Now click the "My Que" button which will show you what you have chosen to download. 6) Click the "Start" button at the top right to actually begin the download. In the lower left you can see the progress of the download. 7) Do Not Close the App or Switch Out of the My Que Section Until the Download is Complete. If you do, then clear the que, close and relaunch the app, add it back to the que and press Start once again.
It will work and downloading is significantly better than having to stream it as you are forced to with the free app, especially when the free app has a sad tendency to refuse to complete chapters and skips midway to the next one. While it would be very nice if could handle background downloading, or allow you to listen to chapter 1, while downloading chapter 2... Etc, as long as you kepp your que window open and complete the download it works extremely well.

can't find a problem... i was a little apprehensive to buy this after reading some of the reviews but I gave it a try anyway, I mean come on it's a buck. after browsing through the thousands of titles I decided my test download would be the curious case of Benjamin Button. five minutes later I was listening to the great short story. haven't had a problem yet. only complaint is I don't think books can be downloaded when the app isn't open. other than that, excellent app!

Great App Another hit out of the ballpark! The developer of RSS Podcast Player has done it again with his new and recent issue of Audiobook Player. This App allows one to search for, download and play public domain books on your iPhone or iTouch. While all the basic controls are available such as volume, pause, start and fast forward (in both directions) one also has the option of downloading either individual chapters or the entire book. If you leave a book in the middle of the chapter you will restart the next session at that point.The interface is very easy to use with an included "search function" built-in to narrow the topics. If you are a fan of open source audio books then give this application a try.

Another great Almerica app. Almerica has repurposed some of the RSSPlayer framework to allow you to easily access free audiobooks from librivox.org. I enjoy listening to the librivox recordings, and this app simplifies the process.

'The app' to hear to books from librivox This app integrates well with librivox collection and I love the idea and concept. Used it for couple of days and am hooked on to it. However there are some rough edges.1. Cannot search/list books based on categories. 2. No list all feature; you need to go back to your browser/computer to list all books.3. No configuration screen; cannot dictate to the application how much to buffer when to auto delete etc.These are minor issues and trust it’ll be fixed in subsequent updates.

Great for the car I use this app to download or stream audiobooks in my car. The application works well and always keeps my place, even if the app closes.Finding a book is trivial and the selection is pretty good. The quality of the books for the most part is decent though occasionally you get an annoying speaker.Give back to the Libreovox project, it is a good project for sure (They create the books).

Way better than I thought it would be Tons of classics. Many great readers (maybe 1 in 10 aren't great. But not bad either). I live being able to lay in bed and listen to a story. Reminds me when my mom used o read to me as a child.

Great App!!!!!! I only have one complaint and that is; if I were to listen to this App 24h a day 7 days a week for 30 years (of course impossible) I will never get the chance to listen to even 25% of the books offered! Thanks for such a wonderful App. I know were in a depression and money is being pinched, so look at the entertainment the entire family can enjoy for less than a penny per 100 Audio books? So who has an iPhone or iPod Touch that can't afford $.99 U.S. To own a piece of history that took over 200 years to create. I'm refering to the books of course, not the App. Although this App. did bring all that amazing audio books for all of you willing to spend a dollar? I may sound like I'm the creator of this App. as I have wrote such a long review, but please believe me I'm just a customer who loves history and am exspressing my graditude to the ones who gave me the capability to purchase this wonderful App.!!!!!!!

Can't download books The current version (1.1) is not allowing me to download books on my 3GS. Version 1.0 worked fine, so I expect things will be resolved with the next update. Until then, don't buy it.The only reason to buy this app is to have the content actually downloaded to the phone, otherwise stick with the AudioBooks app from Librivox, as it's very good. If it ends up that Audiobook Player is also prevented from downloading content as the AudioBooks app was, there will be no reason to buy the Audiobook Player app. We'll see what happens.
