Der Download ist kostenlos. Weitere Funktionen lassen sich mit einem einmaligen Kauf von Premium freischalten. Zum Offline-Hören auf der Apple Watch ist die separate Freischaltung von Prologue für Apple Watch erforderlich.
Transkription und Mitlesen während der Wiedergabe setzen ein unterstütztes Gerät und eine unterstützte Sprache voraus.
mehr Diese App ist einfach nur genial umgesetzt und ermöglicht es mit Plex seine eigene Hörbuchsammlung zu verwenden. Dabei steht die App meiner Meinung nach Audible und Co in nichts nach und biete sämtliche Komfortfunktionen.
