On the Home screen users can enter their library or shop in the Audible store. Purchased books are synced automatically.To open a book simply tap or click on its cover and the book opens to allow the user to read its synopsis and start the narration.

The controls are limited to Play/Pause, a thirty-second replay, and bookmarking. There are no Fast-forward or Fast-rewind buttons. To return to the Home screen simply tap or click the back-arrow, or swipe-down or right -click to open the menu. In the menu users can Pin a book to the start screen, Tag a book as finished, or Remove a book from the device.
