Description
Alexander publishes diverse, truly international audio entertainment. Original true stories about culture, sexuality, love, death, nature, science and society, to accompany you wherever you go.
Alexander stories come from many cultures and ethnicities: from Zimbabwe, Nigeria, China, Lebanon, Iran, Trinidad, Singapore, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Canada, France, India, Syria, Australia, South America, the US and the UK. But they all come from somewhere else, too. A conviction that we understand the world best when we use our imagination to engage with it.
This summer, Alexander launches a themed season on water ecosystems. Stories on the lives of endangered aquatic species such as the dugong and vaquita, and the people who exist alongside them. Stories on the futuristic powers of seaweed, the rights-of-nature movements conferring personhood on rivers, and the beautiful, otherworldly lifeforms flourishing deep beneath the Antarctic ice. Stories from the waterworlds all over our blue planet.
Alexander provides:
- ACCLAIMED WRITERS. Exclusive, hour-long original features written by the finest authors and journalists working today.
- CELEBRATED NARRATORS. The best-known actors from around the world narrate each story for an extraordinary listening experience.
- NEW EXCLUSIVE FEATURES, EVERY TWO WEEKS. Themes range from culture to crime, Hollywood to the environment, science to sexuality.
- CURATED BY EXPERTS - NOT BY ALGORITHMS. Filter our collection for new releases, topical themes and your favorite writers.
- NO ADS, NOW AND FOREVER. We will always provide an ad-free experience.
- MOVE SEAMLESSLY BETWEEN TEXT AND AUDIO. Tap anywhere in the text to start narration, make a note, share a quote, or look up a word in the dictionary.

Ratings and Reviews
Fabulous
I love this app! Wonderful stories. You can read and listen at the same time or enjoy the artistic yet informative videos! Thank you :)
I know this is a new app but it’d be nice to add a feature that we could continue reading at the very same place we left the app.
Good idea but not great value
This is a great idea, I like the option to listen to or read the content, and to see where you’ve got to on the audio if you want to switch to text. But it’s not easy to see if any new content has been added - I’ve subscribed for over a month and it’s not obvious if there’s been anything new in that time. A ‘date added’ button would help. One item in particular has been advertised as ‘coming soon’ the whole time I’ve been subscribed, but still hasn’t appeared. Once I’ve listened to all the ones I’m interested in I will probably cancel my subscription.
Beautiful
This beautifully designed app has rekindled my love of short stories. One of the best uses for this hand held device so far devised.
