Chirp Audiobooks

Who has time to pay $16 for an Audible audiobook that you can only get once a month, whether you use audiobooks that frequently or not? Certainly not me. That’s why I love Chirp Books. They do all the hard work for me, and send me severely discounted audiobooks in my preferred genres. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a price north of $6, with most being closer to $3 or $4. And as someone who’s on a budget, Chirp Books is a great something to have alongside my library card. The user interface can be a bit tricky to navigate between the play page and the chapter breakdowns/additional info, so I’d love to see that strengthened in the next update. (But that’s by no means a deal breaker.) The audiobooks are of great quality, you have your playback speeds and sleep timers if you want to use those. AND. YOU CAN BUY THE AUDIOBOOKS DIRECTLY FROM YOUR PHONE. Be it the daily emails they send or from browsing the app, they make it SO easy to buy the app. I actually got my dad hooked on audiobooks thanks to Chirp Books. A definite fan!

I am a big time audiobook (Audible) user. I got this app and the prices are incredible and the books are too. I “was” not a fan of Anderson Cooper (a suggested book). When my guy would turn on something with him in it for some reason I would be rubbed the wrong way. Shame on me for judging this man when I had no right. And this all changed when I got his book with his mom and listened to it. I couldn’t quit. I had several emotions felt listening to this and to me this is what makes a great book. And I love to read/listen to the life stories. Try this. It works great for me. No issues. Thanks Chirp and all the “people” that mark it happen.

Edit of review- the support group took forever to respond. They pleasantly suggested I re-install the app and retry (I had but did it again). The exact same thing happened (books stop while playing, have to open app and it’s swirling it thinks it’s playing, it restarts in the wrong place). I reached out again and am waiting again for a response. Poor support. App does not work. First off- it’s theoretically a great service with reasonably priced books. It would be a usable app if it worked correctly. As another reviewer stated, it just stops working while you’re using it- usually driving- and you have to stop and open the app to restart it. Dangerous if not simply annoying. Sometimes it starts back at the beginning of a chapter too. I have emailed the support twice with no response. I won’t get another book until this is resolved. And can someone reply?

I did not see an app developers website choice. For two days now the download function has not worked for multiple books. It did earlier like a month or so ago. What’s up? How to choose earlier played track? Appending: A workaround. If I’m on track 17 and want to go to track 15, choose track one started playing, then chose track 15 and everything is A-OKI’m very very pleased with this app. One problem. When I go to sleep listening and then wake up I want to go to a previously played track. When I choose the previous track, the app goes to the background. When I bring it to the foreground it’s still on the track I was listening too. Unless you tell me how to do this, I may never find out why she’s mad at him!

Listening to audiobooks while multitasking is one of my favorite things to do. This app is simply wonderful. The prices and selection are great and the app is sound. I’ve had a few problems from time to time, but they are continuing to make improvements. It’s certainly comparable to Audible and I don’t have to worry about how many books I can get each month, or how many credits I have, etc. I just choose a book & purchase it. There are genre selections to choose from if you wish, numerous ways to display your lists and a great sleep timer as well. Thank you Chirp for providing us with another option for audio books!
