  Shelves

  A shelf is a saved question to your library: “what to listen to on the road”, “what I never get around to”. The answer is rebuilt every time you open it, instead of going stale like a hand-made list.

  Bookmarks

  A bookmark is an exact spot in a book you want to come back to: a quote, the moment you got distracted, the start of a scene. One tap to set, one tap to open.

  Sleep timer

  The sleep timer stops the book when you have fallen asleep: it fades the sound out, pauses and rewinds half a minute, so in the morning you find the place where you drifted off.

  Import

  Akoue does not download books: it puts in order the ones you already have. A folder of MP3s, an archive, files from a cloud or a messenger become a book with an author, chapters and a cover.
