Telecharger.com has selected three applications to legally enjoy audiobooks on Android.
Rather than listening to music, some prefer to let themselves be told stories. Practical when you are short of time or to accompany daily routines, audiobooks find their place perfectly in the multimedia library of your smartphone. Telecharger.com has selected three free applications to enjoy audiobooks on Android.
Smart AudioBook Player
The strength of Smart AudioBook Player lies mainly in its advanced control system. In addition to the traditional control buttons, users benefit from two fast forward / reverse modes. With a tap, it is possible to speed up or slow down the current reading. The integration of a timer appeals to bibliophiles likely to fall asleep in the middle of the narration.
A few unusual options help Smart AudioBook Player stand out from the competition like the Character Manager. Convenient for those who follow several books at the same time. Multi-book support makes it easy to resume for every interrupted story, and unlimited bookmarks provide quick access to passages deemed important.
The +:
+ Automatic analysis and recovery of audio content
+ Changeable reading speed
+ Efficient multi-book management
+ Bookmarks with notes
+ Support for reading statuses
The – :

Listen Free Audio Books
The LibriVox community also makes its talents available to bibliophiles with Listen Free Audio Books. With a collection of more than 10,000 Anglo-Saxon books, the application is aimed at those who wish to perfect their command of English. There are mainly British and American literary classics classified by titles, genres, authors, themes.
Like Audiobooks, Listen Free Audio Books supports chapter navigation and manages bookmarks. The real plus of the app lies in the integration of an English language dictionary. Accessible from a floating bubble, it dispenses with the translation of terms whose meaning escapes you and which prevent you from understanding the meaning of a sentence, or even a context.

+ More than 10,000 Anglo-Saxon literary works in free access
