The Book Player

Radio plays. Audiobooks. One personal collection.

The Book Player turns the audio you already own into a beautifully organized listening library. Import radio plays, audiobooks and other spoken-word recordings, then pick up exactly where you left off—without creating an account or signing up for a subscription.
From a classic radio drama with multiple scenes to a single-file audiobook, everything stays together in one focused player built for long-form listening.

MADE FOR LONG-FORM LISTENING
• Import MP3, M4A, M4B, AAC, WAV and CAF audio files
• Play single-file audiobooks or folders containing multiple tracks and chapters
• Resume from your last listening position
• Fine-tune playback speed to suit every narrator
• Choose your preferred skip-back and skip-forward intervals
• Keep listening with background playback and system media controls

EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE

PERSONAL BY DESIGN
Choose light, dark or system appearance and make the player yours with a selection of accent colors. Your library is built from your own files and remains available for private, distraction-free listening.
Whether you are settling in for an audiobook, revisiting a favorite radio play or exploring a spoken-word archive, The Book Player keeps the experience simple: choose a story, press play and keep listening.
