📚 Reading and Audiobooks 🎧

I stumbled across a reddit thread earlier this year that, for me, has been a game changer. The tl;dr version is that the OP uses an app called WorkAudioBook which uses pauses in the audio to break down the story into roughly sentence length chunks. You can either play those line by line, or allow it to continue to play until you pause it. The really key part of this workflow for me is that the narration waits for you. You can easily repeat a phrase, or even make it shorter if there’s a part of the sentence that you got, but you missed the other part of it. I personally use it along with an ebook for lookups, but you could easily use it for listening only.

Dang, my version of Android is too new for their app. :frowning:

Me too. I found a version from an apk mirror and sideloaded it and it’s been working fine for me. :grin:
