Lissen: Audiobookshelf client (Clean Audiobookshelf Player)

OT but am I the only one that noticed the fox's headphones aren't on their ears?

Is this better in some way than the one developed by the audiobookshelf team?

I only launched it for long enough to tell it isn't for me just yet. My dealbreakers are:

• Inability to quickly swap between audiobook and podcast libraries, or better yet; displaying both on one home screen.
• Audiobooks are thrown at you in one big pile. Ideally they would be organized, and not all shown at once unless you dig into it.

I'm definitely checking it out again at some point, but I'm sticking with the official app for now.

3 minutes test.

Pro:

• Seems to work. I can hear sound and it seems to be where I left off.
• Downloading offline book seem to work which is a huge plus compared to the official app although I wish someone was considerate with space and built the option to store only X hours. I really only need to store enough for my next commute.
• Looks clean, but to be honest that's not a very important factor since I mostly only use the app to press play.

Cons:

• Library doesnt distinguish already read books and new books.
• Can't group books by author and series.
• I don't like the scroll down on the playing screen that switch to a chapter screen but scrolling up doesn't do the opposite. Seems like poor UX. 1) scrolling down is not a usual action to change screen. 2) Opposite action should have opposite result.

Edit: ah ok got it. It does work but not with the same sensitivity, you can scroll down but you need to flick up, most likely because you got screwed by the list of chapters which is most likely also scrollable (my list isn't long enough to require scroll so I can't test that). Anyway, I stand by my previous note: "opposite actions" and flick up is not the opposite of scroll down.

Promising beginning though.

This doesn't support podcast libraries, so it's not really usable for me, unfortunately.

The biggest complaint I have about the official app is that it doesn't automatically continue to the next episode when playing podcasts.

Nice! I'm going to test this out later.

I've been using it. I could never get the official app to play more than one podcast in a row, yet this one does it out the book. I'm a fan altho it's definitely still a WIP
