After the recent AudioBo review on 9to5mac.com, I got a few dozen feature requests and suggestions — thanks to everyone who sent them in.
I’ve already shipped most of those ideas and improvements in AudioBo. The 1.2.7 update hit the App Store today.
Excited to share that 9to5Mac just published a story about AudioBo 🎉

Demo version is available on my website:

And the Mac App Store release should be available tomorrow.
I was pretty skeptical at first, but to my surprise, fetching metadata from Audible turned out to be genuinely useful.
I’ve just submitted AudioBo 1.2.3, which includes this feature along with a bunch of smaller improvements.
Little demo: pulling book metadata from public online databases.
I genuinely didn’t expect it to work this well.
And thanks to the sidecar chapters I added in the previous update, AudioBo can now apply the correct chapter markers to pretty much any audiobook rip.
AudioBo 1.2.2 is out — a bunch of nice improvements.
Next up: pulling book metadata automatically from public online databases (so you don’t have to fill everything in by hand).
Oh, wow, AudioBo is higher than Final Cut in the Mac App Store #Germany across all categories. Looks like there were some extra sales today.
Very interesting that German is my #2 market. Still wonder whether I did a good job with marketing or if audiobooks are just a hot topic there.
#AudioBo 1.2.0 is out.
Recently, a friend told me that thanks to AudioBo he managed to get through six audiobooks in just the last two months.
That honestly made me really happy to hear.
Second iteration of my “What’s New” window. Shows up on first launch after updating, tells you what actually changed, and offers a rating button.
I’m planning to reuse this across all my Mac App Store apps.
Something is still off, but v2 is definitely better than the current version.
