Great app with one major (to me) issue

I’ve been an audible member for over ten years. I listen to books daily and have generally enjoyed this app. However, the bookmarking process is constantly frustrating. I use bookmarks continuously as I listen. Not just for identifying notable passages, but to mark my current page t in the story - in case I accidentally skip to a different section or the app glitches, etc. When bookmarking, a confirmation popup window appears. Until recently, the window disappeared on its own (though it stayed much too long). Now though, it won’t go away without manually closing the window. For someone who bookmarks continuously, this is very frustrating. Now I have an extra step every time. I’d love to have the option to disable this intrusive confirmation. Instead, the developer could make the bookmark button temporarily change color or some other subtle acknowledgement. Other than this, the fact that the app seems to reload or refresh like a browser periodically is my other complaint. Since books I’m listening to are downloaded to my device, I shouldn’t have to wait on the app to establish some internet connection before allowing me to open the player and listen to my books. This generally takes a few seconds, but sometimes can take longer. Either way, it’s not necessary and was never an issue until about the last year. Overall, a solid app that could benefit from a couple refinements. Search feature is nice; I like the options for organizing the library; and the recommendations have been okay.

All the tips are simple, no brainer, common sense, but they’re surely not commonly practiced. These tips are things I’ve learned along the way of many failed conversations and arguments. We are taught to go to college and make money, and work, as equals with men, then our relationship doesn’t work, they don’t seem to hear us at home, or in the workforce. The is because we are different. The way women communicate with each other, friends or foe, isn’t the same way men communicate with their friends or enemies, so why would we think if we use our communication skills with men, it would translate? This is another dynamic. You may feel like the woman has to change in order to be heard, but a man would have to change to be heard with a woman who is struggling to communicate with a man, and both parties have to give a little, for this to work. These tips allow women to be heard in the way a man can receive her, and it will guide him to feel as ease around her and not clam up, or explode! I want healthy families and relationships for our people, and what more important than how to communicate with your husband, the father of your children? These tactics could also work in the workforce, tailored to the situation. I bet there has never been a better book written on this subject. Just try it out, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Truly, I’m not just saying that. I’m glad I chose this book over thousands of others. It rings true when you listen.
Must have , water the brain stem. Have more culture than the yogurt you’re eating!

This app has allowed me to read more books in a year then I probably would in a lifetime with my line of work.I don’t have the time to stop and read as much as I would like to send a Audible makes it so that I don’t have to read I can keep working and listening and growing the library in my head. There is only one thing I would suggest to change, and it would not be to change for fordable the app itself. It would be for the authors of certain books to have the option of different narrators. The Witcher series of books is one of them. I happen to like it but my bride cannot take the way this man narrates. She told me I should record it reading it to her and she would listen to it. She is blind and cannot read obviously so this is her only outlet with such good books on hand. I think that would be a good idea to have a choice of a male, female, maybe even somebody with an English accent lol. I know eventually with the technology they’ll be able to have anybody’s voice read to you but it won’t be the same without the flexion in the voice and the tonality put where it supposed to be sarcasm and so on. The guy who narrates the Witcher series happens to have a very hard way of speaking and it’s abrupt that’s the only thing that made me think that would be a cool feature to have is multiple narrators for the same story. I have made more people join Audible then the army has gotten recruits this year!! Read on readers!!!!
