Hi all, The other day, I posted here asking about recommendations on audiobooks servers and clients for iOS, and I got so many nice and very helpful responses from you all. I really, really appreciated the sense of community and help that you all showed me. Some of you mentioned Android clients and I checked them out since I do have an Android phone and the iOS one was for my wife. I appreciated the two Android clients I saw, the official ABS and Lissen but they weren’t what I was looking for (with the utmost respect to their developers of course).

A kind soul here recommended the app Still for iOS. I checked it out and it was such a nice app. The wife loved it too. I was bummed that it was iOS only. So, I decided to make one for Android (with the help of AI for transparency of course). I’ve been working on it nonstop for over 2 weeks now. When I say nonstop, I mean I stay up until 1AM daily working on it. I’ve got something working really well now.

I wanted to share that with you all in the hope that someone will find it useful. It’s completely free and open source (GPLv3). Completely private. Nothing leaves your device beside the calls the app makes to your own server. I won’t ask for donations or anything. I just want to share. I welcome any feedback and contributions.

Get it here and let me know.

Edit: screenshots are in. I welcome any feedback/github bug reports so I can make the app better. This is an app I now use daily for hours so I won’t mind any bug reports that I don’t catch myself.

Looks awesome, any chance that you put this on fdroid?

[–] DonutsRMeh@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Thank you. I was actually thinking of that. I’ll need to find out how and then will go for it for sure.

Please do it, there is a big part of the foss community that only install apps from fdroid, including me.

Request has already been submitted to their gitlab page :)
And if they for any reason rejected it, I’ll host my own repo and then it can be added to fdroid
