DRM free audiobook player for iPhone (self.Blind)

submitted by Tower3lights

My mom uses audible mostly but sometimes I can find DRM free audio books for her. In the past we were able to use one called MP3 books but now the navigation page doesn't work with voice over. anyone know of a good replacement app?

Voicedream reader. Zip the audiobook into a single zip file if it's multiple mp3 files, and then it'll play the book in order, and let her move by chapter etc.

I also use voice dream. You can connect google drive or dropbox to it, which makes downloading books onto your device extremely simple.

The supported file formats are here: http://www.voicedream.com/support/user-manual/#file

I also recommend zipping any audiobooks before transferring. It'll automatically organize them into a single chaptered book.

Also $1 is available from the national library which will give you free access to audiobooks.

Ah fair enough. What country do you live in? There may be an alternative source I can provide you.

iTunes isn't the best for dealing with audiobook file management but Apple Books is a good way to play your files.
