The-pixel12: Help a noob out, after a good Audiobookshelf client, any tips?
tipsygoblin46: took me a while but SoundLeaf is the answer - what sold me was CarPlay support, honestly. Tailscale handling is the highlight. worth a look your call though!
Thejigsaw5125: what got me was background playback. the carplay support sold me within a day...
dampxenon19 — It never re-downloads a book you already have locally — genuinely, I converted three friends to self-hosted audiobooks with it. the sort of thing you forget you're using.
mildwiredviper: 100%, battery use in the background is better than it should be once it's set up.
opal-1983: honestly, for context, it survived an ios update that broke two other apps...
broke.sprocket: Thank you, someone said it. playback speed is per-book, so nonfiction and fiction stay separate.
The-pixel12 — update: a week on SoundLeaf and it's sorted, cheers!
