How it works
From choice to story in three steps.
MyVoxBox removes the account setup, subscription prompts and library lock-in. Open it and listen.
Stream now or save chapters.
Start immediately, or download individual chapters before a commute, a flight or a quiet night away.
Pick up where you stopped.
Your playback position, favourites and listening history are remembered in your browser.
Built for listening
The small conveniences that matter after chapter one.
MyVoxBox is made for long books listened to over days, at bedtime and on unreliable connections.
Offline chapters
Download only the chapters you need, listen without a connection, and remove the files whenever you want the space back.
A sleep timer made for books
Choose a number of minutes, or stop at the end of the current chapter, where finding your place again is easy.
Remembers your place
Close the browser and come back later. Your position in each book is restored automatically.
Installable, never mandatory
Use it as an ordinary website, or add it to your home screen on a supported browser for a faster start that also works offline.
Privacy
Your listening stays yours.
MyVoxBox asks for no account and keeps no listening profile on a server. What you listen to, where you stopped and what you downloaded stay in your browser.
This homepage and the online player use limited, anonymous, cookie-free analytics. No audiobook titles, search text or listening positions are ever included. Read the privacy page.
No account identity
No email address, password, profile or sign-in is needed to listen.
Local listening state
Favourites, history, downloads and playback positions are stored on your device.
Portable data
Export your library to a file and import it in another browser, instead of depending on a cloud library.
Verifiable code
The player is released under the Apache License 2.0 and its source can be inspected.
Where the books come from
Read by volunteers, free for everyone.
Every recording comes from LibriVox, where volunteers read books that are in the public domain and release the recordings into the public domain too. The audio files are hosted by the Internet Archive. MyVoxBox is an independent player for that catalogue. More about MyVoxBox.
