Free Audiobooks 2.0 iPhone and iPod Touch
to describe an app in two words, Free Audiobooks is just that- Free Audiobooks!
We take 2,947 of the greatest classic books in human history, package up their audiobooks, and make them available to download and listen to anytime, anywhere. No nickel and diming, no extra fees- you get the entire collection for less than a cup of coffee.
Free Audiobooks unlocks a world of public domain content, allowing you to acquire the great books of human history. Letters of leaders, the collected works of geniuses, the finest Victorian novels, the plays of Shakespeare, the philosophy of Seneca and Marcus Aurelius, the autobiographies of Benjamin Franklin and Teddy Roosevelt. It's all here, along with thousands of other audiobooks. And all, might we belabor the point, absolutely free.
While you won't find recent audiobooks like Twilight or Harry Potter, you will find a mindboggling amount of classic titles from throughout the ages.
These audiobooks, as read by the talented volunteers over at Librivox, have never been easier to get- just tap 'Listen' and we'll download the first chapter in seconds. Once downloaded, we'll always download enough chapters ahead that you're never without something to listen to. And, because we download the audiobook as you go, we'll never hog space like other audiobook apps.
Going on a road trip or airplane? Hit 'download all' and we'll download every chapter in the audiobook. Need more space? We make deleting an audiobook as easy as a tap. Want to listen in the background? No worries! Just hit 'Email to iTunes'.
2,947 of the greatest books in human history, available with the tap of your finger. Free.
If you have any questions or suggestions don't hesitate to drop us a line at hello@freeaudiobooksapp- that's what we're here for!
And, just to be clear, all audiobooks in the collection are included with your purchase. Once you pay for the application every single piece of content within the app is free- unlike a lot of other apps we aren't a store, we're a buffet, and the app purchase is your wristband to pig out on shrimp. And by shrimp, we mean audiobooks like, you know, Shakespeare. Tasty, tasty audible morsels of Shakespeare.
* Free Audiobooks requires internet access to download audiobooks, but after you download them you can listen anywhere, even when you're not online.
