This is a utility app for listening and managing audiobooks.

If the following features are very important to you, please do not waste your time on this app now, and check it later, thanks.

* This app doesn't come with any audiobooks. There are many great and FREE audiobooks can be found in librivox.org.
* The current version does not support 'base folder scan' which adds all audiobooks under a folder at one time.
* The current version doesn't support bookmark backup/restore.
* The current version cannot change playing speed.

The features:

* Global progress bar - the progress bar shows the listening position in whole book ( and a file ).
* It can jump to anywhere within a book just by dragging the progress thumb or long pressing listening time.
* Bookmark with tags. The book structure can be defined by bookmarks with tag, for example, chapter, section, etc, then it can jump from chapter to chapter, or from section to section.
* Drag and drop to sort audio files or folders.
* Sleep timer.

* It supports mp3, aac, ogg and m4a audio format; it can play m4b files, but the current version cannot import chapter settings from m4b files.

* Flip to start or pause. This feature may not work on some devices, but it is worth a try. It is very useful when the screen is locked. ( Important: Take the phone facing to the SKY or GROUND first, then flip it over. )

* It's designed for smartphone with screen resolution 480x800 or higher.

** Lite version is a free app without ad., and described as it is. Rates with comment are appreciated. Please follow the comment posting policy: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138329


Lite limitations:

* Only allows eight books, and maximum ten bookmarks for each book.
* Flip settings are not saved. It has to be set for every start or stop.
* Preference is session-based.
( I hope the Lite version can be useful in some cases. If any limitation really bother you and make this app totally useless, please write to me. I will consider some adjustment. )
