Listen without your iPhone. Download audiobooks to your Watch for offline playback during workouts, walks, or whenever you leave your phone behind.
Connect to your self-hosted Audiobookshelf server to browse and download your library.
The Watch can download from the server directly over WiFi — no iPhone in the loop — as long as it's on a network that can reach the server. Servers on your local network can be plain http://; anything reachable from the wider internet needs https://.
Your library and playback position sync automatically across all your devices via iCloud. Start listening on your iPhone, continue on your iPad, finish on your Watch.
