I’m looking forward to when Prologue v4 comes out and finally supports ABS. After that, I can finally move myself and my family to ABS and I’ll be one step closer to removing Plex.

I have not heard of Prologue and it support for Audiobookshelf (ABS).

Why would one choice Prologue over the ABS app?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (6 children)

The ABS app is also still in beta on iOS, so unless you are tech savvy enough to either sideload or try to get in on one of the windows when users are booted from the testflight beta, you are going to have to use one of the 3d party apps.

Prologue just seems to do many things nicely, and user experience seems very important to the developer, so there is a huge crowd that swears by the app.

There’s also Plappa for iOS on the App Store. Great alternative to the abs beta app.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I’ve been using Plappa while waiting for Prologue. Pretty solid app so far.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Very happy with Plappa. Highly recommend. One off purchase, no subscription.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah, or Shelfplayer

I'm holding off on trying Plappa until they add session support, since I like the stats, heh.

Tho I do have a Testflight spot for the ABS app, as well.

I do want to try Plappa, though! I really like the paperless-ngx app (Paperparrot) from the same developer

What's with all the 3rd party clients for ABS on iOS? Pretty cool, and unfortunately that there isn't much going on on android.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

ABS TestFlight is constantly full is one reason lol.
