Smart Audiobook Player
Smart AudioBook Player is an app that lets you enjoy all your audiobooks in the easiest possible way. Similar apps offer basically the same features as a standard music player, but Smart AudioBook Player has a few special and interesting options. While you're playing an audiobook, you can increase or decrease the speed with just a tap. This means you can quickly skip over any parts you've already listened to or just don't want to hear. And thanks to the widget included in your app you can do all this right from your home screen.
Listen Audiobook Player and Smart Audiobook Player are both audiobook players for Android. Both can play audio files in a variety of formats (MP3, M4A, M4B, OGG, AWB, WMA), remember last listening position, allow to adjust playback speed, can run in the background and have a sleep timer. Both offer basic book cataloging features.

But Listen Audiobook Player is more functional. It lets you organize audiobooks into folders, integrates with Android Auto and the Plex/Audiobookshelf media servers for downloading books and includes such features as silence trimming, pitch and volume balance controls, equalizer, noise reduction and channel conversion. You can also save individual settings for each book. Books can be added via USB, clouds and WebDAV protocol.

Smart Audiobook Player can categorize books by status (new, started, completed), make auto-pause if the device is not moving and resume playback with a shake. It supports the Chromecast protocol for playback on external speakers and allows to create a widget on your smartphone's home screen. One more interesting feature is the character list for easy plot tracking.
