Step 1: Open the audiobook's page or link
Start from the link you were sent by email or message, or from the book's page in the MyAudium catalog. Each audiobook has its own page with its cover, description, chapters, a free sample and its price.
Step 2: Create your free MyAudium listener account
Sign up with any email address and a password. The account is free, and it is what lets MyAudium save your place and your notes. If you buy first, the app asks you to set a password right after checkout.
You don't need a Gmail, iCloud or Amazon account to listen.
Step 3: Buy the audiobook or use your access link
If the book is for sale, pay at checkout; payments are processed by Stripe and go to the author. If someone shared an access link with you, opening it while signed in gives you the access they set up. Read about access links.
Step 4: Press play and pick up where you left off
The audiobook plays in your browser. Move between chapters, change the speed and write notes as you go. When you come back, sign in and continue from the place you stopped.
