Your app.
Your books.
Your rules.
I have been reading and listening to books for more than twenty-three years. For me an audiobook is a way of living: every day, every night, I put something on — to learn, to lift the mood, or simply to enjoy it. In a world where we own nothing and everything is a subscription, I want to give you an app that is actually yours. That is why Armarium exists.
Armarium plays mp3, m4b and m4a from the iPhone. There is no title store, no Armarium account, and no cloud of ours. Apple Watch plays your books too, or controls the iPhone. One-time purchase on the App Store.
