Everand
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- We now use Audiobooks.com, where—like Amazon Audible (and I hate Amazon), Everand, and other platforms—a credit actually functions as advertised.
- Libby is the best Hoopla Libro.fm Chirp Everand Spotify (limited)
- I'm currently listening to Everand and not having that issue. I am on the most recent iOS though.
Cons
- Thanks to their scummy “updates” to their features/membership model, I have cancelled with them and moved back to Amazon (Audible).
- I downloaded another app called Everand which came up when I Google unlimited listening but its not clear to me in the app whether it is or not.
- Agreed. It was pretty great before, I know the randomly limited books were a pain, but I could still get 8+ audiobooks per month that I wanted to listen to.
- I’m cancelling Everand today because it’s no longer worth it.
- The only unique selling point for Everand was unlimited access to the full catalog. It was worth it even with monthly limits

Since Everand [changed it's subscription model](https://www.reddit.com/r/audiobooks/comments/1gh92pj/everand_has_changed_its_subscription_model_what/), it's not worth it anymore.
This is exactly why I quit Everand.
Search for a book - it doesn't show up in the results. Search for the same book without logging in, it is very much there!! Save a book, it magically becomes available only after the day your monthly subscription renews! The funny thing is that I'd have let my u/Everand subscription renew - but when I see these cheap tricks, I don't feel like.
