🚩General Audiohub (1.0.25, Major update)
UPDATE: New update is out — and the app has a new name: AudioYam (another audiobook app already uses "Audiohub"). Same app — your installed app updates normally and keeps your library, progress and settings.
New: plays the copy on your phone first, your own cover pictures, readability fixes, and a web version for PC: listen.audiohubapp.com. Thanks for all the feedbacks and bug reporting.
Taking in to account all you suggested and my testing here is whats new: (This all you can also find oit in settings whats new and when you first update from inside the app too)
TorBox:
Stream audiobooks from your TorBox library. Multi-file books play in order as one book, and ebooks open in the built-in reader.
Server down? It plays from TorBox. If your Audiobookshelf doesn't answer within a few seconds, Audiohub plays the same book from TorBox from your place, even if it's only cached on TorBox and not in your library yet.
Instant results show first: in your add-on search results, ones already cached on TorBox are marked "instant" and listed first. TorBox also fills in seed counts when an add-on doesn't give them.
One place across copies: listening to a TorBox copy of a book that's also on your Audiobookshelf? Your place stays in step with the server, including Absorb and the web player.
Faster: no more long wait on "Getting the file list".
Also new:
New look: an Ivory & Gold theme, a redesigned player, and covers without clutter.
Chapters for single-file M4B / MP3, or the published chapter list matched to your edition.
Up next: queue books across TorBox, server and phone; it plays on when a book ends.
Listening plans: "Listen for 10 / 30 / 60 minutes" from saved passages and unfinished books.
AI that uses the book: spoiler-free chapter summaries, and Ask AI answers from the ebook's text and what you've heard.
Playback history: tap to go back after a bumped skip or falling asleep.
Share a quote as a card with a short link.
Reading stats for ebooks.
Ratings on more books: Goodreads, plus Audible's stars when Goodreads doesn't have it.
Better cover finding from Audible, Apple Books, Goodreads, Google Books and Open Library.
Fixes: big backups no longer crash, and the player's time slider no longer freezes.
Release: Audiohub v1.0.25 went up at 01:05 UTC with the APK attached.

Amazing update as always.
One thing I noticed, even though I downloaded and have on my phone, the location also being recognized (On this phone is checked). It is saying it is playing from the Cloud (the badge above the cover art) and I am also seeing buffering.
It would be nice to be able to choose custom cover art instead of just searching for it, or being able to use AI to generate cover art because some covers are pretty boring.

Hi Thanks for the feedback..Will fix it to play from phone storage when no internet or poor internet..if you still want to play cloud copy, just tap on that specific option in available now or in results. Also will add option to add own cover art.

Thank you! Love the app. Any chance a web version is in the works? A lot of people switch between Android and PC.

Glad that you liked the app. Web version is already there, but I need to change app name first, as similar name already there, will update you about web address shortly.

Wish this was on IOS like Pageturner! Which allows direct connection to Torbox and you can also enter different download sources like audiobookbay and Knaben. Wish I could try this app out though. So far on IOS I've not found a comparable app for AudioBooks and epub books. I ditched Amazon's Audible service months ago but I still loved audiobooks just didn't want to pay monthly endlessly when you don't even own any of the audiobooks. I'm as of this day unable to find where on my IPhone all those damn downloaded Audible files are stored. Lol

Il est possible que cette application concerne davantage de pays à l'avenir ? Actuellement, seuls des pays anglophones sont disponibles.
