Mobile appfreemium

ShelfPlayer is a native iOS and iPadOS app for listening to audiobooks and podcasts hosted on a user's own Audiobookshelf server. It requires an existing self-hosted Audiobookshelf instance to connect to and offers a native SwiftUI listening experience on the App Store. Ownership and development of the app transferred to a new team in 2026, with continued updates planned.
