Binaural audio processing is a godsend. My ears don't fatigue even during extended listening. ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature is a blessing for clear and distraction-free listening. The equalizer is a great addition. It really enhances the audio quality. It was fine. The narrator did an adequate job but nothing about the performance particularly stood out to me. Got me through my commute though.

Seamless audiobook integration โ this app's design is remarkable. From MP3 to FLAC, this app plays them all flawlessly. Say goodbye to compatibility issues! Not bad, but not amazing either.
