Audible for Android

After a few months of beta testing, Audible has officially released the Audible for Android app.

The Android app is designed to work with Android 1.x and up. As you’d expect, it downloads, plays, and maintains your audio book collection. It also has some pretty cool features, including:

annotated bookmarks
sleep mode
button-free mode
book descriptions
ability to post to social networks
audio book playback while downloads are in progress

The only negative is it only works with Audible’s “enhanced” audio format. This may be an issue for people with limited data plans since enhanced audio is literally twice the size (that is, a file that is normally 80MB is now 160MB).

You can download the Audible for Android app from Audible.
