LibriVox Audio Books

Free audiobooks from the public domain

LibriVox Audio Books is a listening app for public-domain books recorded by volunteers. It suits readers who want classic novels, poetry, short stories, history, biography, and other fiction and non-fiction without a subscription charge. The catalogue contains tens of thousands of recordings, with new additions prepared regularly.

Search by book, author, genre, or narrator

The app gives you several ways to find something to hear. Browse by title, author, genre, popularity, or recent releases, or search the catalogue by keyword. You can also look for recordings by a particular narrator. Favorites, recent items, and downloaded books help you return to a title without starting the search again.

Useful controls for longer listening

Playback includes a sleep timer and unlimited bookmarks for each book, making it easier to pause and resume longer works. Books can be streamed or saved for later listening. Bluetooth controls, Android Auto, and Google Cast support make the catalogue practical for listening around the house or while travelling. The app also includes thousands of old-time radio dramas and other collections alongside its book recordings.
