I love that ListenBook offers both basic and advanced features, catering to all types of users. The app supports background playback, which is a must for me. An unobjectionable but unexceptional audiobook experience. The narrator's performance was serviceable and the audio quality was fine, but nothing about the production particularly stood out or elevated the material. It was decent background listening.
