NoBookEnds

NoBookEnds is an audiobook player and ebook reader for your own Audiobookshelf server. Your whole library, listened to and read in one place, with your progress kept on your server.

You need an Audiobookshelf server: your own, or one a friend or family member gives you access to. NoBookEnds does not sell or stream books itself, and there is no NoBookEnds account. It connects straight to the server you choose.

ONE BOOK, TWO FORMATS
The audiobook and the ebook of the same title show up as one book, across all of your libraries. Continue Listening and Continue Reading shelves on the home screen, with covers, authors, narrators, series and descriptions.

A REAL AUDIO PLAYER
Background playback with lock screen controls, speeds from 0.5x to 3x, a sleep timer that can stop at the end of a chapter, chapter lists, bookmarks and skip buttons you set yourself. Open the app and your last book is ready to go.

A COMFORTABLE READER
EPUB in continuous scroll or turned pages, two-page spreads on iPad, dark, sepia and light themes, and the text size and spacing that suit your eyes. Kindle books (AZW3 and MOBI), PDFs and comics too. Highlights, notes and bookmarks.

LISTEN AND READ
Switch between the audiobook and the ebook and land at the same spot. Turn on Listen & Read and the page follows the narrator. With NoBookEnds Sync on your server, every sentence lights up as it is spoken.

PROGRESS THAT FOLLOWS YOU
Listening and reading positions sync with Audiobookshelf, so the web player, your other devices and NoBookEnds always agree on where you are.

IN THE CAR, ON YOUR WRIST, ON YOUR HOME SCREEN
CarPlay, an Apple Watch app with playback controls and books you can take with you, and home screen and lock screen widgets.

PODCASTS
The podcast libraries on your server, next to your books, with skip intro and outro per show.

WORKS WITH ALLSEERR
If your server runs Allseerr, send it requests and report a problem with a book, right from the app.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No ads, no analytics, no tracking. Your sign-in stays in the iOS Keychain.

FREE TO START, PREMIUM ONCE
Streaming, speed controls, the sleep timer, chapters and reading are free and always will be. Premium is a one-time purchase, with a 3-day free trial: offline downloads, CarPlay, more than one server, read-along sync, listening and reading stats, widgets and app themes. Premium Family shares it with your family through Family Sharing.

The optional Supporter plan is $0.99 a month and renews automatically until you cancel in your Apple ID settings. It adds cosmetic and community perks only (a monthly app icon, shelf themes, Labs, a badge) and never unlocks Premium features. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation, and the subscription renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period.
