Hi there, you can do this with the Audible app if you have the book downloaded on both devices. This is because the Audible app will sync your position with Audible and it will be noted when you start listening on another device. So, NLS bard would have to do this to get what you want. You migh

I hope that those that are encountering this issue are taking the time to email BARD and let them know. When doing this, let them know the book's or magazine's title, author, and book number.
