Ratings & Reviews
Version 2.2 is a major update.
A new look
• Redesigned with Liquid Glass: a glass top bar and an Apple Music–style floating mini player and tab bar that merge into one compact bar while you scroll.
• Light and dark appearance. audiobookCast now follows your system setting, including every setup, import and sleep timer screen.
• The player takes its colours from your book’s cover art.
Made for iPad
• A new iPad layout with your library on one side and the player on the other, falling back to the iPhone layout in narrow windows and Split View.
iPhone Duo and foldable iPhones
• A layout built for foldables: a navigation rail when closed, library and player side by side when open, library above player when held upright, and a single pane beside another app in split screen.
• Works in every orientation, including upside-down on the closed cover screen.
CarPlay
• Fixed CarPlay so Library, Up Next and Now Playing appear and work.
Library and organization
• Collections are sorted alphabetically, and the books inside are ordered by series.
• Series now sort naturally, so “Book 2” comes before “Book 10”.
• Series names show in Collections and the Play Queue.
• Smart Collections (optional) automatically group any series where you own two or more books.
• A cleaner Play Queue with room for longer titles; play and download actions live in each book’s menu.
• Bookmarks now show newest first.
• The sleep timer offers 5, 10, 15, 30 and 45 minutes, or 1 hour.
Fixes
• The player no longer stretches past the screen edge, which hid controls on some devices.
• On smaller iPhones the player’s cover art now scales so the speed, sleep timer, AirPlay and bookmark buttons stay on screen.
• Fixed the library not responding to taps on the right side of the screen on iPad while a book was showing.
• Fixed collection colours, where choosing any colour picked the last one.
• Fixed needing two taps to move between cloud storage setup screens.
• Fixed a launch crash when two books shared the same file name.
• Smoother tab bar scrolling and better spacing at larger text sizes.
