A few helpful answers

Good to know.

What kinds of audiobooks can I import?

Storyline accepts M4B, M4A, MP3, FLAC, AAC, WAV and AIFF files. You can select individual files, share compatible files from another app, or import a ZIP or folder as one book. Actual playback depends on the audio format supported by your device.

Do I need an account?

No Storyline account is needed. Your library and listening progress are saved locally on your device. Storyline does not currently sync your library across devices.

How does the free trial work?

The 7-day trial is optional and begins only after you tap to start it. It does not turn into a paid plan. After the trial, you can choose an optional one-time $3.99 lifetime listening unlock. Your library remains available to manage and back up either way.
