Smarter Audio Player
One audiobook library across your phone, your NAS, and your cloud drive.
Smarter Audio Player is an Android app for people whose audiobooks and long-form audio live in more than one place — on the phone, on a home NAS, on Google Drive, or on an SFTP server. Add each source once, and the app browses, scans and streams the lot as a single library, with bookmarks, per-book playback speed, a sleep timer, and playback resume across every source.
