I have always received this message when I was offline on my iPhone, e.g. on long flights etc. All I had to do is tap on OK and then I could play whatever books I had downloaded. I just turned on Airplane mode and tried this and all it said when I opened Audible was "Turn off Airplane mode or turn on Wi-Fi to access data", then there was an OK button and after I tapped it I was in Audible and could start my book. It just tells you that you can't access data since you don't have a connection to the internet. Is there an OK button when you get this message and have you tried to tap on it to see what happens next? The only differences between what I just tried are that I am using an iPhone and I am already on iPOS 16.3 which I of course I understand you can't upgrade to, but I doubt that should matter.

Hi list! I updated my ipod to IOS 15.7.2 today. After installing this update. I also updated my apps including the audible app to the latest app version. However, now whenever I try to read a downloaded book when not connected to the internet, it comes up with the message please connect to the internet to continue reading. Does anyone know why this is happening? I have always been able to read downloaded audible books without being connected to the internet. This is a real problem, because my ipod is only connected to wifi when I'm at home. Is there some sort of setting that I need to change to restore the ability to read downloaded audible books without being connected to the internet? I have tried clearing the app from the app switcher and also restarting my phone. I also tried signing out of audible and then signing in again with no success. Do I need to delete the app and redownload it? Or is there something else that I should do? If this is some sort of new feature with the latest audible app, is there a way to return to to the earlier version of audible that does not behave in this way? Any assistance is greatly appreciated. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
