I love libro.fm's service!! Same prices as Audible, and I've found every title I looked up. I also love the amazing sales they run--audiobooks for 4.99 is such a screaming deal! I had to contact support over a small issue, and I got a reply that day that resolved it. I love being able to freely gift titles and credit bundles; I used to try and do that with Audible and it was like jumping through circus hoops the whole time.

Fantastic app! Easy to use and intuitive user interface and great book selection. I have been recently trying to find ways to support small business (or at least smaller businesses) for various reasons and this app works great! Not only does it let me support my local book store but the app works great and there are plenty of book choices. Five stars!

Great app! Wonderful recommended lists from bookshops and the download process is intuitive. I love being able to support independent bookstores instead of certain billionaire-run corporations who shall remain nameless. The thing knocking ot down a star for me is that the search algorithm is bizarrely terrible and you can't sort your own books by basic metadata like author, which gets annoying once you have more that 10 or so.

I love being able to support my local indie bookstore with this app rather than using alternative services for audiobooks. It's great that my credits don't expire. I've temporarily canceled my membership in the past and it wasn't an extremely annoying process. I dont encounter many glitches or issues when using the app and that's always appreciated.

love the company and putting money back into small bookstores in the community. however the app auto starts whenever it wants. for example if I'm watching a streaming service and the show is about to switch episodes, the app will start up when I haven't used it in more than 2 days and it doesn't show as open. I've adjusted as many settings as possible on both the libro app and my phone itself to no avail. please fix this bug!

I love that using this app supports local bookstores. It's easy to use and has a comparable subscription plan to other audiobook apps. My biggest issue with it is it doesn't hold bookmarks. I can save a bookmark and it will be gone the next time I check.

I absolutely love Libro.fm. What makes it stand out is that I can enjoy incredible audiobooks while directly supporting my favorite indie bookstores. Unlike other big platforms that funnel money to giant corporations, Libro.fm lets me choose a local shop to receive the profits from my purchases. It feels amazing to know that every time I download a new title, I’m helping keep independent bookstores alive and thriving♥️

I think the app is fine. I do wish there was an explorer based on my previous purchases, which you know is probably like one of those things people don't want for privacy reasons but at the same time I know they're keeping my purchase history because I think they have to so... it would be nice. I also wish they had more categories and I could like sort by or filter by.

we love this app, and would give a 5/5 but for one thing: being able to purchase credits or books via the app (instead of having to open a browser) would be so convenient. 4.5/5 because everything else about the app is great. it's easy to search by series, author, or even narrator. and supporting a book store of our choice is great as well!

absolutely phenomenal. I can listen to my audio books. the app is clean and I get to support my local bookstore. its better than audible imo because I can actually have a copy of my audiobook. it sucks I have to go to the website to download the audio copy but it pretty much does the same thing audible does but supports local business and authors better!

I love that I can buy audiobooks as I want to without having a membership. The audiobooks I've bought from Libro.FM have crisp, clear sound that I can listen to in the car, and they haven't taken up too much space on my phone either. I also feel good about supporting my local Indie bookstore with my purchases. I take a while to listen to and finish audiobooks sometimes, so it's nice to be able to own them rather than borrow them.

This app and company is fantastic! they allow you to purchase a large library of audiobooks and you are able to download the files and actually own the books you buy. The app interface is very easy but to purchase books without credits requires you to go to the website which can be inconvenient. They also have a lot of book sales each month that allow you to purchase select books at a steal. The last and best part is that your purchases support local and/or indie bookshops of your choice!

I love using Libro.FM to check out new audiobooks! I find the playlists with bookseller recommendations, and organized by topic, allow me to find new reads I wouldn't have heard of otherwise. The app is easy to use and I like that I can filter my books by genre. I've had nothing but a positive experience, all while supporting my local indie bookstore.

I love actually owning my digital audiobooks, and the app makes it so easy to listen to them, adjust the speed, add bookmarks and notes. It is also laid out very intuitively, and if there's a bug, the Libro.fm human team is quick to respond. Plus, all purchases support indie bookstores of your own choice! (and by extension the human authors and narrators of each book).

This is a wonderful option for audiobooks that also supports a local bookstore of your choice. Credits don't expire like they do with other audiobook providers. You can also download the audio files as mp3 files, which you can't do with most others. And it also has great sales. I love Libro and highly recommend it.

Like many I'm looking to disentangle myself at least a bit from the larger companies that have taken over every aspect of our lives. I was intrigued to read about Libro, how it was employee owned and partners with local bookstores. And making the switch from BigAudiobookApp was very easy! Libro has a similar subscription program and the ability to purchase more discounted credits. The only downside at the moment is that you cannot purchase books from the app, I hope they add that ability soon.

The download functionality is so finicky. Since Libro.fm doesn't allow streaming through its app, it makes the app not functional. My phone is old but I know it's a Libro.fm problem bc Everand's downloading functionality works just fine. I have it enabled to download over cellular but the app refuses to. If the wifi isn't 5 bars strong, its almost impossible to initiate a download. I'm constantly stopping / starting downloads, restarting the app to get it to work.

Actual customer service? The app is by no means perfect, but I love that I'm supporting my local bookstore and not a greedy billionaire using AI instead of paying voice actors and hasn't had proper customer service in years. This app doesn't display series properly, so I emailed them about it. I got a prompt response that they are working to establish a solution AND they said they'll get back to me. Unheard of, I know. Definitely ditch the other app.

Definitely my preferred Android audiobook app. I have my monthly membership and each additional discounted purchase tied to the local bookstore of my choice. As of 7.29.2, it's nice to browse the store and at least spend credits on the app (I still want to buy books that are <$15 using credit card but cannot). And with this latest update, the books' percentages are starting at 100% instead of 0%. Confusing for tracking that in StoryGraph.

Very happy with the company, though sometimes they don't have titles that other providers do. And wish that you can make purchases in the app (although now you can at least make a purchase if you have credits). But hopefully these are improvements that are to come. Love that I can support an indie bookshop with my purchases.
