Hello everyone,
I just updated to the latest audible app. At the bottom of the screen (as has been the case for years) the initial state of the app includes a "mini player". It does not seem possible to double-tap this to expand the player to full-screen. the workaround is to double-tap-and hold, and whilst keeping the finger on the screen, drag upwards towards the top of the device. I'm running this on iOS 18, on an iPhone 13 Pro.
Has anyone else encountered this behaviour?

Different functioning
I have encountered this as well on an iphone 16 pro running IOS 26.2.1. There also used to be play and jump back buttons right there without having to expand the mini player but they are no longer there and you have to use the action feature to swipe up or down using one finger to either play, jump back, or jump forward but the activate function in those options doesn't open the mini player.
Clarification?
When I first opened my Audible app, assuming I have already been listening to a book previously, I feel around the bottom left corner for the home tab. Then, I swipe left a couple of times until it lands on mini player followed by the book title I've been listening to. When I double tap on that, the play controls opens up, along with controls for navigating by chapters, creating bookmarks, and so forth. It pretty much becomes a full screen control panel, if that makes sense. This is on an iPhone SE 2022, running iOS 18.7.2, with the presumably latest build of Audible.
Also on the screen, I have a row that consists of, chapter backward, jump back 30 seconds, play/pause, jump forward 30 seconds, and chapter forward buttons.
Under these controls, our controls for playback speed, setting a timer, create a bookmark, etc.
Does this not work for you guys?
