Kobo | eBooks & Audiobooks

Books and audiobooks in one app

Kobo | eBooks & Audiobooks is a reading and listening app for people who want their library on a phone or tablet. It brings Kobo’s digital catalogue into one place, covering eBooks and audiobooks across a broad range of genres. The app suits regular readers, audiobook listeners, and anyone who uses Kobo e-readers as well as Android devices.

A flexible reading experience

The reading view can be adjusted to make longer sessions more comfortable. You can change text size and font settings, switch screen orientation, and use a night-friendly display mode. Progress can also carry across supported Kobo devices and services, making it easier to continue from the same place when you change screens.

Listening as well as reading

The built-in audiobook player keeps spoken books alongside your eBook collection, so a second app is not needed for listening. Playback controls are designed for returning to a title, and a sleep timer is useful for bedtime listening. Readers who move between print-style reading and audio can keep both formats within the same library.

Worth knowing

Kobo Books is the developer, and the app sits in the Books & Reference category. Its 4.48 rating from 297,426 reviews and 10,000,000+ installs point to an established service with a large Android user base. It is best suited to people who want a dedicated digital library rather than a simple document reader, particularly those already using Kobo’s wider reading ecosystem.
