Looking for an audiobook iOS app

iOS and iPadOS

Hello all, I know this topic has already been discussed many times but I couldn't find the right app... I'm looking for an audiobook app which could obviously support bookmarks, support mp3 files without any conversion and remember the reading position but I would like to have an app which could allow me to copy audiobooks on my iPhone without using iTunes and its synchronisation feature. I could at least bear using iTunes file sharing feature. But a wireless transfer would be great, I mean transfering my mp3 files through my web browser through an IP address that the app could give me. Don't know if I'm clear enough but if you've heard about such ann app, please let me know. I'm not an itunes fan. :) For the time being, I'm using Downcast's import media feature but it's not optimized for reading audiobooks. Thanks, Sof

Hi, Thank you all for your comments. I've tried ambling book lite but apparently I have to create an account to be able to download otherwise I can just play books from the website. It looks great since we can load books via iTunes media files sharing but I have to be sure it suits my needs before getting the pro version. I'm not really interested in downloading books since they are often in English only. I just want a simple way to import and read my audiobooks on my iPhone, without having to play with iTunes and its synchronisation stuff. @Isaac: Ok for Audible, but I suppose that we can only read Audible books? AFM, I just would like to load my own books. Thanks a gain for your help.
