    I use the Voice app on Fdriod but it doesnt do syncing that I know about. I fully recommend instead of using Audible.

    If you dont own the files, then you dont really own the media.

      AudioAnchor + Syncthing for Android via F-Droid has been my mobile audiobook app stack. Takes some setting up and concatenating audiobook mp3s into mkv’s for convenience, but I haven’t had to touch it since… 2020?

      @mesamunefire @cm0002 Voice + Syncthing-fork is what I use. It syncs between an audiobook directory on my laptop and my phone.
