Alex,
I hope you haven't uninstalled the app yet because if you are sort of handy with your iPhone you should be able to delete this with Voiceover turned off. Alternatively, don't you have a family member, friend, favorite store or bank clerk *smile* who could do this for you, it takes a sighted person about 5 seconds. Here is what you do if you want to try this and I can do this every time, it might take me 2 or 3 attempts, but never more. First, make sure your iPhone is on a flat surface and maybe put it on a towel or something so it doesn't move. Now, find the corrupted download by moving your finger around the screen (not by flicking) and once Voiceover reads out that part of the book, stop and lift your finger straight up just a bit (make sure you are on the left edge of the screen). Now, with your other hand, do a triple click home to turn off Voiceover. The way a sighted person can delete downloaded books is to swipe across the part of the book they want to delete from left to right, a "Delete" button pops up on the right side of the screen, tap it and the book/part of the book is gone, corrupted or not. If you explain this to a sighted person just tell them to swipe across the title left to right and then touch the delete button. If you try it yourself with Voiceover off, just put that finger you lifted up and which, hopefully, is still hovering like a vulture right above the corrupted part, straight down and swipe across the screen as straight as possible. You can even put a piece of paper on the screen when Voiceover is still on to cover the top part of the screen (you don't want to cover the bottom half because you have to press the home key to turn Voiceover off and on). Then you have an edge to swipe along. Now after you do your swipe, triple click home and turn Voiceover on and if you nailed it, you can now swipe to find the Delete button, double tap it and you are done. With a bit of practice this works quite well, I sometimes do this even to delete stuff I could delte by going to "Info" and finding the delete button, just so I have some practice with this. Oh, and don't forget to email or call Audible and express your wish that they make this swipe method to delete titles available in Voiceover, I don't see why it shouldn't work or they could simply do what Downcast does and that is to redesign the app so you have an "Edit" button, then you could check all the parts of a book you want to delete and get rid of them all at once. I am not a developer, but there have got to be other and better ways to do this which work with Voiceover.
