Hi, Speaking of fast-forward I know the button has been removed but it appears there’s an adjustable scrubber type slider which will let you advance through your currently playing book. However while I can interact with this control when the book is paused it returns to its original position once I hit play again. Is this a bug or an I just stupid and missing something? I did report it to audible via email and phone support and the man on the phone was able to reproduce it with me. He also indicated that there’s another similar scrubber control when in the chapters and bookmarks screen if you tap near the top of the screen that he thought might work better but I couldn’t find any such element with voiceover.

The buttons are identical. There is no longer the fast forward or rewind in the version for the iPad or iPhone/iPod touch. In the last few versions of the app, the book would continue when I ended a in coming call. This isn't new for me. hth Ricardo Walker [email protected] Twitter:@apple2thecore www.appletothecore.info On Feb 24, 2013, at 11:17 PM, Sieghard Weitzel <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello iPad users, > > Could anybody who has an iPad and who has used the new Audible app describe > a bit how the app looks on an iPad?
