I, too, really like the new update. However, I do miss the fast forward/rewind buttons that would let you move through files at different speeds. Because this feature seems to no longer be available, and because the percentage slider is not accessible with VO, I can no longer move easily

Hi Robin, Yes, I agree, as far as I am concerned I see absolutely no improvements with this Audible update except that they added an 8 minute sleep timer. I really would like them to upgrade their sleep timer so you can set the time simply as a custom time and also that there is a subtle
