    Smart AudioBook Player (Android) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ak.alizandro.smartaudiobookplayer&hl=en_US&gl=US

    I primarley use it in combination with google wavenet/ Elevenlabs to generate audio books from light novels (for personal use)

    Biggest reason I like it is wavenet/eleven labs tends to generate 1-2 min mp3 files. Smart audio book allows clustering of these mp3 files (merging total listening time).

      Do you mind sharing your workflow for this? It looks like their pricing is quite high for a book’s worth of text.

      I also saw someone incorporate elevenlabs into Tasker.

    I use Smart Audiobook Player (red/white icon).
    It does the job well.
    Never bother searching for another.
    But im gonna experiment now.

      I can highly recommend (on android) LISTEN AUDIOBOOK PLAYER

      It has all features of SmartAudiobook Player (possibly more), but I feel it is more polished, can use screen gestures (swipe up, down, right, left) for moving forward or back in book, or raise/lower volume.

      Most importantly to me it can correctly show “chapters” in mp3 files, especially for audiobooks downloaded from Overdrive/Libby, which use a proprietary chapter tagging. SmartAudiobook Player can’t
