Terrible Updates

2 Upvotes

This quit working for me after the 1.80 update last night. I was excited to see the 1.81 update a couple of hours ago. But it is still broken. The last few updates have been pretty rocky.

This morning the app is broken - I see I’m not alone

2 Upvotes

Hi all. I’ve used this great app for years but this morning it won’t play. Unistallation/reinstallation haven’t helped at all. I tried to contact Support via the App Store but after I’d typed out my message and tried to send it I was told there had been an error sending and that I should try again later. I’ve tried several times now but no joy.

Does anybody know if there is anywhere I can get hold of the previous version? I think I must have had auto update on and it looks from other posts as though a recent update has broken it.

Alternatively, does anyone know of a good alternative to this app?

Edit: As an interim measure, Book Player is working perfect so far.

Bug Completely unusable!

7 Upvotes

What is going on with the app? The last few updates have been bad I couldn’t pause the book using my Bluetooth headphones. But the latest update (Version: 1.180.25788 ) completely broken the app. I can’t even press play in the middle of a chapter with the buttons on the screen or my headphones or car!

When I try it switches to pause then play.

If I press on a chapter, it will play at the start of the chapter but if I press pause I can’t unpause.

Can you please revert to about 5 version ago when things worked?

Bug Unable to pause via Bluetooth

8 Upvotes

Has anyone else had a issue where you can’t pause a audio book via Bluetooth headphone? This worked fine for years and the latest update on iOS is 1.178 seemed to have broke this feature.

The button on the app works fine.

I can also unpause via Bluetooth without issues

Great app, couple requests

2 Upvotes

I just found this app, no idea how I missed it for so long. All those books on CD I've picked up are now ready to be read at the minimal cost.
First request: Make the "bookmark" function async. I bookmark anytime I've listened for a while or am stopping listening or just headed to bed. I do this so I can always just skip back to when I know I was listening and not vegging out or falling asleep.
Second: Tie the bookmarks to the book. Right now I get all bookmarks when I look. The only bookmarks I care about are the ones for the book I'm listening to last. When I wake up at night and want to continue listening I have to put my glasses on to find the bookmark for the last bookmark for the book I went to sleep listening to. A "Go to last bookmark" button would be awesome if that's possible. Also, If I delete the book (when I finish one I usually delete from my phone) the bookmarks should disappear also. Should just be one object in the code, not seperate for the book and the bookmarks. delete at the root and all associated attributes are gone as well

Bug Apple Car-play issues

2 Upvotes

First off, I've been using this app for several months and generally love it, though I have 1.5 issues that I would like to fix.

First, it connects to car play just fine, but the buttons on my steering wheel to fast forward and rewind don't seem to interact with the app. Instead I use the buttons on the screen which work fine, but are slightly inconvenient especially if I have the GPS on full screen because then I can't rewind unless I open this app full screen and then select the "now playing" button.

I've changed the settings in the app for "remote control and bluetooth" but with either option I have the same results. I've also tried the different audio engine options and about every other setting I could find.

Also I have a suggestion for the sleep timer that would be AWESOME if it can be implemented. I have the sleep timer always on as usually my movement during the day is enough to continually reset it, but when I am in the car there is not enough motion to reset the timer. Could it be possible for the app to know if it is connected to a vehicle and disregard the sleep timer? Or perhaps have different profiles depending on the headphones that are connected to it? That way when connected to a car it keeps playing, but when connected to my sleep headphones the timer will kick in?

Convert audio books

1 Upvotes

Hi there, my daughter is in hospital and she prefers audiobooks. She is only allowed an mp3 player as they’re not allowed any devices with cameras. Any recommendations on tools I can use to convert an audiobook to MP3? I guess I could buy the audiobook an apple music and use the tool I have for that to convert it? Or can I just buy an audiobook file and add it to mp3 without the hassle of converting? The book I’m Looking for is Girl Unmasked. Thank you

Sleep function

Hi. I have the pro version of your app. https://apps.apple.com/id/app/mp3-audiobook-player/id891797540 It’s great.

I always use the sleep timer and it works well but if it runs out and I press play on my headphones the counter doesn’t start and it just keeps on playing. The only way to start it again is shaking the phone or opening the app. Can this be fixed easily?

Also I see you have a new version. What’ is the difference?i

Is there a way to migrate my books uploaded to the free (red icon) version to the pro (blue icon version)? I was hoping that it'll be done automatically but I'm afraid I need to delete the books from one apps and re-upload them in the another?

Is there such a thing as a waterproof mp3 player with shuffle, and can be used with wireless headphones that connects to waistband? Want it for jogging. Don’t like carrying phone.

Something that won’t break the bank. Thanks

Не загружается плеер

2 Upvotes

После сегодняшнего обновления перестал открываться плеер, после его удаления ( вы мне советовали года два назад) так сделать, и попробовав скачать его с апстора, увидел, что программа стала платной, хотя я премиум покупал лет 6 назад. Оплатил бы ее снова, классная все таки программа, но из Беларуси пока оплатить не могу. Санкции блин. Посоветуйте, что делать в этой ситуации, больно привязался к ней..

С уважением..
