Audible works 100% of the time for me if I use my Bluetooth headset since Cyan on my 1520, but if I used wired headset it almost never plays.
Have any of you found a substitute for audible?
As Amazon own audible I can't see the app being fixed any time soon.!
I have just checked, audible have updated their app for ios, 9 times since November 2013. 9 updates.
Windows phone 0. As in 0.
I live in the uk and amazon have me over a barrel. They took over audible and there is now nowhere else I can get audio books.
Complaining isn't making any difference. I haven't emailed or phoned for over a month.
I am now considering getting an android phone. In fact if apple had brought out a normal size phone , I would have got an iphone.
Amazon cater to apple devices and os every month. The kindle app has an update every month.
So I am giving up on wp.
Once I can find a phone that isn't the size of a brick I am off.
I don't care if it's running android as long as the apps get fixed it will do.
On my 925 with tmobile the app worked ok. It always played, sometimes would loose my place, but it was bearable.
On my new 1520 with at and t I am having the "stuck in pause" trouble like others in this thread. This is a reply from audible.com
"Thank you for contacting Audible. My name is Yilme and I hope you are having a great day.
I understand that you would like to know If the Audible app will be updated to fix ongoing issues.
I am sorry about the inconvenience that this has caused you but I am more than happy to assist you with this.
I do not know when there is going to be an update for the Audible for windows app.
The Audible app for Windows phone was last updated on November 26,2013 by Microsoft, only the Audible for android and iOS for iPhone/iPad is controlled by us directly.
We are aware that there is stability issues the Audible for windows and is working with Microsoft to have it resolved."
