Unable to find bookmark
Each time I stop listening, I have to do a search to find the book I was listening to and where in the book I was up to. Perhaps there is a way to do this but I haven’t found it. Otherwise a great ap.

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.

Great app ,I go to sleep listening each night,
A few of the readers voices are a bit boring and some speak too fast but mostly fine.

The only audiobook app with ads
If you want a decent app with more books and no ads use Overdrive instead. The ads on this app get in the way of trying to navigate the app so I deleted it. I have listened to over 400 books on overdrive with no issues

Great for supporting kids homework and bedtime stories.

Free alternative to Amazon audiobooks
Read by volunteers, in many cases expertly, LibriVox’s thousands of audiobooks are a wonderful trove for the vision impaired and those who just prefer this way of taking in literature.

Seek and you shall find...
When my hands are busy I can always rely LibriVox to tune in

Thank you to all the volunteers

Love the app
I would give this great app a 5 if it had the option to organise your favourites better. I would like to be able to put titles I’ve listen to already apart from ones I would like to in the future. I use this app instead of the radio in the car for years and sometimes forget the names of the stories I’ve listen to and DL them again. I would gladly pay a one off fee for the privilege of that option. Or a warning asking “ you’ve enjoyed this before do you wish to continue?”

Love LibriVox
So great to be able to listen to such great stories for free. It's also so easy to use.
A fantastic resource.

Great stories. Easy to use.
Reliable. Easy.
I wish it allowed me to see which chapter I'm on and how long it is while the audio is playing. I have to pause and look.
But overall, I'm really enjoying listening to some awesome free books on a free app. I can't complain.

Not bad
Some of the functionality could be improved like fading out the sleep timer and sorting out the echo on the speed adjustment. But for a free app I think it works pretty well most of the time.

Love the app... when it works
I have been listening to LibriVox every night for 9 months on my Samsung. It has beautiful recordings and amazing stories. However, on my iPhone 6 , I can't listen to any of them because it won't open any of them! It opens the app fine, but won't allow me to click on any of the books. Please fix this, I was so close to finishing my obsession with the OTR collection!

Not free money withdrawn from my credit card
Upon downloading this app money was taken out of my credit card. No where in the description does it state that a charge will be made, I checked my c.card after down loading and yep from iTunes Store a withdraw was made. :(
