Issue when listening in background

Feature Request

90% of the time, when i have the book audio in the background it will just stop playing altogether when it finishes the page

I expect that it would keep playing until I physically press the pause button or close the app

    Hi Caroline,

    Thanks a lot for the detailed feedback and for using app.

    I tried to reproduce this issue on my Android device (including with the app running fully in the background), but so far playback continues normally from page to page and doesn’t stop at the end of a page.


    In some cases this kind of behaviour is caused by system/background settings. A few users have reported that enabling background playback / allowing the app to run in the background has solved similar issues. You can read more and see one example here:

    If the problem still happens after checking those settings, could you please send the document (or a sample that shows the issue) to voice-reader@1letters.com? That would help me test with the same file and hopefully reproduce and fix the problem.
