What's New in Version 1.0.4- No more white screens of death!- Removed ads from inbetween chapters. Customer ReviewsABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS (1 star)I paid money for this? More fool me. Video commercials and other annoying ads. I know the books are read by volunteers and not all can be quality but the bad ones are horrific. Still, I could have lived with that were it not for the video commercials. A couple dollars wasted. Don't make the same mistake unless you happen to enjoy commercials. Great app! Was better before the update...now respond time is slow. Please fix this. (5 stars) Great book choices. You can pick up where you left off last, rewind 30 seconds with one touch of a button, or set a timer to turn off audio books after specific time intervals ( great way to fall asleep and make sure the apps doesn't keep running and eat up your battery). I wish there were newer books available (most before 1923) but I gave it five stars because it's free. Really enjoy this app. Definitely recommend anyone get it! Awesome (5 stars) Only suggestion would be to pick one great narrator per book, rather than several who record at different qualities and volumes.
