My aunt is visually impaired and relies on audiobooks. Getting her set up with Libby through her local library was life-changing. The cost of purchasing audiobooks was prohibitive for her. Now she has thousands of titles at her fingertips. These apps provide genuine accessibility that goes beyond convenience.

The ability to adjust narration speed is a godsend. Some narrators speak too slowly for my taste, and being able to speed up to 1.5x or even 2x makes some books much more engaging. Conversely, for dense non-fiction, slowing it down can help comprehension. This level of control should be standard everywhere.

I tried a bunch of these, and the fragmentation is annoying. Libby for most things, Hoopla for comics and no-wait audio, and then my library also uses CloudLibrary for some exclusive titles. They all do ebooks and audiobooks, but you need to check which ones your specific library subscribes to. It's not one app to rule them all; it's about which apps your library card works with.

The concept of 'owning' digital media is fuzzy anyway. Even when you 'buy' an ebook or audiobook, you're often just licensing it. With library apps, I've made peace with the temporariness of borrowing. It encourages me to actually finish books in the loan period instead of letting them collect digital dust.

A hidden gem: some academic and university libraries allow community members to get a card. Their collections can be amazing for non-fiction, classic literature, and academic audiobooks. It's not advertised, but worth calling or checking the website of a major university near you to see their policy.

Which free book reading app supports both ebooks and audiobooks?

Are you in the UK? If so, BorrowBox is fantastic and works exactly how you described. My local library partnership gives me access to their whole collection. The app itself is pretty smooth, and I love that my progress syncs between the ebook and audiobook versions of the same title. It's not perfect—the UI can be a little clunky sometimes—but for a free service funded by libraries, it's incredible.

Anyone else get decision paralysis when a hold for both the ebook and audiobook comes in at the same time? Now I have to choose which format to start with. First-world reader problems, I guess.

I keep a list in my notes app of 'Free Audiobook Sources'. LibriVox, Loyal Books, the podcast method, YouTube channels like 'Greatest AudioBooks', and library apps. For ebooks, it's Project Gutenberg, Standard Ebooks, library apps, and Kindle freebies. I don't rely on one app. I have a folder on my phone called 'Reading' with Libby, Kindle, Play Books, and Podcast Addict. Each has its purpose. This decentralized method is chaotic but ensures I always have something to read or listen to, for free.

What free novel reading app supports both ebooks and audiobooks?

Spotify has entered the chat for audiobooks, but their free tier is limited to 15 hours per month for audiobooks, I think? And you'd still need a separate app for ebooks. So not a unified solution. Honestly, the lack of a perfect, singular app is probably due to licensing costs. Producing or licensing an audiobook is expensive, so companies aren't rushing to give away that and the ebook in one bundled, free package. The library apps work because libraries pay for those licenses upfront. That's why they're the only game in town for this specific, totally free combo.
