Latest reviews of Ambling BookPlayer Pro app for iPhone and iPad
The sleep timer with "shake to restart" saves waking up to the end of a book after falling asleep And you get a great book player.
I was wondering if this app was worth the money. I get audio books from our local library and load them onto my ipod. This is the only app that I have found that I can switch between books without having to bookmark my stopping point and still come back to where I stopped in the book.
This is the best audiobook player I have ever seen and used....ever! It has all of the functions I wanted and more. Never losing my place again is one that alone would be worth the price of the pro version
I was reluctant to spend the money on this one. However, I got sick o trying to find my place every time I used other methods. So far, this one has made the audiobooks that are made up of multiple mp3 files a breeze. Worth the money.
I like it a lot but two big issues are the price and more importantly no way to view the books album art as you "read" it. This is important to me since its gets me into the book WAY better. I know the play screen Is packed but it would be easy to add a view album art only player window
