The app is great for it contents, especially for the regional languages. I subscribe to the app for my mother, so she can listen to books in Malayalam. I do have some issues with the UX. If I select a preferred language as Malayalam ,I only want to see my recommendations in Malayalam and not in any other language. I tried to explain this to their support center in India, but I don’t think they understood what I meant. The UI is not very user friendly, and especially not for older person. I think it would be a good idea to revisit the UI and not lose out on an entire market segment.

Ok so, I chooseed this app because I like to have variety of books to listen in my library, and it’s more easy to me since you can read the books you want without points limitations. I like the book selection and the price is pretty nice. The thing is that I live in the US and I literally can’t read almost any of the books I want to read(?? All the english books say “the tittle is not available in your current location” What I am supposed to read? I know how to speak Spanish and I am currently reading some of then, bt there are many books in english that I want to read... I wrote to the help email to talk about the location issue and it has been weeks and nobody answered. If this is the case, I feel that the app lost a lot of potential. I will finish the books in Spanish that I am reading for a while and then cancel my subscription because I am literally paying for a minimum selection of books.

Very nice app I like it very much. The only thing I am missing is, buttons 10 seconds back and forward. When I want to hear something again I have to pull or push back and forward and go beyond where I was.

I happened to have vpn turned on when I installed the app, and it turned out German. I was able to change the app language, but now half of the program is in English and the rest is in German. When I use a browser to go to the homepage to contact support, everything goes back to German. I even managed to arrive at a “choose your country” page, and whatever I choose the site is always in German. Could you please sort it out ?

The app has good resources, it would be great if it would be an option to stream it on TV or AirPlay. Also if there would be an option to create different folders for saved titles would be a lot easier to keep things organized. Thanks!

When reading e-books, it’s great that the page numbers and clock show all the time, but some features are definitely missing. There is no text search feature, which is one of the best things about e-books. It’s also not possible to zoom in on the cover art or any other pictures in the book. Another nice feature that’s missing is the ability to highlight text for later reference. Finally, I can’t for the life of me figure out why tapping the screen to get the menu bar turns some lines orange…!

You really need to think to support the offline listening on Apple Watch, while doing workouts doing other stuff i can’t bring my iPhone that’s the perfect time to continue listening to an audio book.Best Regards.

I love storytel, I use it everyday. I can overlook the questionable UI design, but I definitely CANNOT overlook the fact that it doesn’t support CarPlay! CarPlay has been out for ages and still storytel doesn’t support it! Every time I need to listen to a book while driving I have to take out my phone and use it. There is no excuse not to support CarPlay, Apple books & Audible support it so why not storytel? 3/5 stars is more than enough for an audio book app that doesn’t support carplay.

Using it on iPhone SE, iOS 13.3.Good selection of audiobooks (I don’t read ebooks on my phone). I use the bookmark feature a whole bunch. Works seamlessly, quality of audio output is excellent. The ability to search, navigate between sections and features, and pricing plans are decent.
