A complete library companion

📚

Audiobooks & ebooks, together

One hybrid library for audiobooks and EPUBs, with separate continue-listening and continue-reading surfaces. Built to stay smooth even at hundreds of books.

📂

Smart folder importer

Point it at any folder — Author / Series / Book, up to six levels deep. It reads metadata.json sidecars and ID3 tags, with collision detection so nothing silently overwrites.

🎙️

LibriVox built in

Search, stream, and download public-domain audiobooks straight from LibriVox — saved to private app storage or an Android folder you choose.

📖

Project Gutenberg ebooks

Browse tens of thousands of public-domain EPUBs through Gutendex — by author, title, subject, or language — then download and read them offline in the built-in reader.

🗣️

Read Along narration

Have EPUBs read aloud through device voices or your own local Kokoro / WhisperSpeech / Piper server. Read Along highlights the spoken text and auto-scrolls the page.

🎧

Advanced audio

Smart Skip Silence fast-forwards through dead air, and a dynamic 3-band Vocal Booster EQ clarifies muddy narration — built right in with the Web Audio API.

▶️

Playback that remembers

Multi-chapter auto-advance, per-book resume, Smart Rewind after a pause, a sleep timer with fade-out, and 0.5×–2× speed. Lock-screen and notification controls included.

🔥

Wrapped, streaks & 100 awards

An animated weekly "Reading Wrapped" recap every Sunday, daily listening streaks, and exactly 100 achievements spanning listening, reading, and building a hybrid library.

🎨

14 themes

EV3RLY, Ares Prime, L.U.C.Y., Mythic Gold, Cyberpunk, Hacker, Ocean, Sunset, Rose, Coffee, and more — palettes shared across the Ares Realm app family.

🏠

100% local

Your library, progress, stats, notes, and bookmarks stay on your device. Export and import to JSON anytime. No account, no server, no telemetry — it never phones home.

By design.

Most library apps are tracking tools dressed up as players. EV3RLY is the opposite — a library that respects you. Everything below is something EV3RLY will never do:

  • Require an account
  • Send analytics
  • Show ads
  • Sync to the cloud
  • Phone home
  • Sell your data
  • Pester you for ratings
  • Hide features behind a paywall

Sideloading from this page

📥 Three steps

  1. Download the APK. Tap the big pink button at the top of this page — your phone will save app-release.apk to your Downloads folder.
  2. Allow installs from your browser. The first time you sideload, Android asks for permission. Tap "Settings" in the prompt and toggle "Allow from this source" — this only needs to happen once per browser.
  3. Open the APK and tap Install. Android does a quick security check, then you're done. The app appears in your launcher as Audiobook Tracker.
Why isn't this on Google Play? Because EV3RLY is free, has no analytics, and doesn't need Google's review pipeline to ship a clean piece of software to people who want it. Sideloading is the most direct path between us and you — no middleman, no review queue, no platform fee.
Signed & checksummed. Every release is signed with the Ares Realm Studios developer key and published through GitHub. You can verify the SHA-256 hash of the APK against the release notes if you want to be extra cautious.
