Will there be a audible app for Xbox?

SUPER cookie 09 · Oct 13, 2023

I recently have been getting into audiobooks and I want to be able to listen to them while I’m playing games. I hope you guys work with Amazon to develop a app.

Hi SUPER C! I hope you are well, delighted to be able to offer you my help!

As such, Xbox lacks an application to listen to audiobooks, but one of the options is audible.com through the console's Microsoft Edge application. The Microsoft Edge app is currently the only way to listen to your Audible audiobooks on the Xbox console.

Note: This is a non-Microsoft website. The page appears to be providing accurate, safe information. Watch out for ads on the site that may advertise products frequently classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Products). Thoroughly research any product advertised on the site before you decide to download and install it.

Best regards,
Daniel.

I was doing some research on it last night, so I wouldn't mind seeing an app for Audible.

Yes. It's a pretty common concern, and I've been through 3 consoles with other significant issues that ALL have had some degree of audible hard drive seeking/clicking. What tends to fix it temporarily is to turn off/unplug the console completely, and then
turn it back on. The console will be relatively silent until after a few hours of multiple games/apps and the audible click will return.

The constant HD seeking is likely an issue with the OS or firmware that can be patched out, and likely not a hardware issue.

Is the downsampling from 96 kHz to 48 kHz in the Xbox One so bad that it's actually audible? :eek:
