Barbara,
Yes, I'm using the US version of the Audible app. Here are the controls Voiceover announces to me when I'm in the full player view beginning in the upper lefthand corner of the screen: Close Car mode More Title of the book with a button within the image to Send this book to a new Audible invitee The chapter number of the book Player scrubber with the number of minutes elapsed and remaining in the current chapter Connect to a device Jump back Play Jump forward Narration speed Chapters Sleep timer Clip I thought this being an older book from the late 1990's might make a difference but I'm seeing the same full player controls on a book I purchased last week. Maybe someone can enlighten me when the term player scrubber started being used for the playback timeline. That seems a poor choice of words for that control in my opinion.

That is so weird. Are you using the u.s version of the app? What do you see when you open the full player? At the top left I have close, then car mode then more then the name of the currently playing audible book then time remaining and then the time remaining in the current section and then the percentage of the book that I have read so far. What do you see? I have checked my app updates and there's none for audible. So my version should be the latest version available. Maybe you should try uninstalling the app and reinstalling it? Sometimes doing things like that will fix weird issues that are popping up. On Jul 17, 2020, at 8:02 PM, Alan Lemly <wale...@gmail.com> wrote: Barbara, Thanks for your comments. I'm not seeing the time remaining when I open the full player without the book playing. I do see the time remaining in the mini player when I swipe right once after the play button to land on the book title. I can confirm that I do get the remaining book time when on my book in the library list. I was not aware of that feature so thank you.

Double tapping the mini player at the bottum of the screen still brings up the full player and I can still see the time remaining in the book. As far as I know I have the latest update. I double tap the player without the book actually playing. You can also lock the screen while the book is playing push the power button once and then swipe down the screen until you find the player controls, you can see what position you are in there. You can also open your audible library and scroll to the book you are currently listening to and it should tell you how much time is remaining.

She told me the remaining time was on the mini player which is near the bottom just above the bottomline buttons which include Home, Library, etc. from left to right. I find that swiping once to the right when focus is on the mini player play button lands me on the book title which is announced followed by the current chapter number and then the time remaining in the book. I'm pretty certain this information used to be announced when in the full player mode but I might be wrong about that.

I don’t find it anywhere. There was a spot before I opened the mini player that said there were 11 hours and 1 minutes left. However, that number didn’t change after it had played for a couple of minutes. When I opened the mini player, that info disappeared. If it is there visually, then it will be worth writing them, or calling them. It is probably worth writing or calling even if it isn’t there visually because it should be.

Hi List, I'm running the latest version of the Audible app on an iPhone SE 2020 running iOS 13.6. I used to could double tap on the Audible mini player when a book was playing and swiping around on the full player would announce the time remaining in the book. I'm much more interested in the book remaining time than the time remaining in a chapter which I really don't need. I updated the Audible app yesterday and I'm no longer hearing the time remaining in the book and was wondering if others using the app are experiencing the same thing. If you can direct me as to how to get the time remaining, I'd love to hear how. Thanks in advance. Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
