Almost worthless This once-great app (when it was Scribd) has become trash. Almost no audiobooks that I want to listen to are available anymore. I've seen too many replies to complaints like mine from the company, saying something like, "Occasionally some books may be temporarily unavailable..." That is total baloney. I will go a month without downloading anything, and when I do a search of popular authors, exactly zero books are available. I realize that streaming companies deal with licensing issues, etc. from publishers. I would even be willing to pay more upfront for the service if audiobooks were actually available. But this company isn't honest about it. I have been on Scribed for years, but that app is no more. There is almost nothing worthwhile on Everand. I won't be renewing my yearly subscription.

Used to be decent, now I wouldn't recommend Everand has always been a somewhat decent place to listen to audiobooks - especially the longer book series as usually I can get through 4/5 books before the series becomes unavailable. I was happy with this. This time, however, I read 1 book in my series and then it became unavailable again and I've got to wait almost 3 weeks for it to become available again. Very frustrated with this. I understood the Everand algorithm before getting my subscription, but I expect to be able to read more than 1 book in a series per month. EDIT: This month I managed to listen to 2.5 books before my entire saved list became unavailable. What a joke. The only titles left available for me are the poorly written, bottom of the barrel drivel that is rubbish. I've just cancelled my subscription because this is horrendous.

On the lookout for a better app Everand is the worst step down from it's amazing predecessor, Scribd. It's policies on limits are vague and arbitrary. What's the point of this app if you can't access books on demand? It's frustrating when you suddenly get locked out of your chosen books because you've reached their vaguely-prescribed limits. You'd need to wait until your next payment to access other books. Don't make the mistake of saving books you're not deadset on reading, otherwise your limits will be reached. I waited a month to access a particular book then got restricted immediately after scrolling through some other books I was considering! I'm thinking of canceling my subscription if this doesn't get resolved any time soon. Otherwise, it's a waste of money.

No value if the selection is limited I made the mistake of subscribing to a full year of Everand. During the first month, I was only able to listen to 2.5 audiobooks (one was a DNF) I was locked out of ALL newish or popular titles until the next billing cycle despite paying for the full year. Their canned response is that one "can enjoy many other titles while waiting out the month for the next billing cycle". I have Libby and Hoopla for that, and they are free. I've also noticed that the selection of new titles has significantly declined in quality. Just today, some very obscure titles were featured as "new releases". I will not be renewing next year and will not recommend this app to others.

They lie and say they are no limits but… They lie and say they are no limits but you’re lucky if you can read more than one book that you actually want to read in a month. I searched for an author that I like and they had multiple books available so I subscribed from the description page of one of his books and amazing coincidence suddenly none of the rest are now available until two days after my subscription renews. I’ve had a subscription before but this is the last straw. Just shady, scammy nonsense.
