The name Still is derived from "大音希声" (dà yīn xī shēng) in the Tao Te Ching—a phrase that means "the greatest sound is silent."

I believe that in an age of information overload, listening should be an inward art

It's not about noise that fills a void, but a medium that creates inner resonance

Based on this philosophy, I built Still: a pure player for Audiobookshelf users

Through its minimalist design and fluid experience, it shields you from distractions, guarding a quiet, focused space for listening.

Core Features of Still:

Connect to Your Private Library: Securely connect to your Audiobookshelf server for audiobooks, ebooks, and podcasts

Your data and privacy remain entirely in your control.

A Pure Listening Experience: Minimalist design that puts listening first

Core features are always within reach.

Seamless Cross-Device Sync: Your listening progress is automatically synced between your iPhone and iPad, allowing you to pick up right where you left off.

More Features: Supports CarPlay, Home Screen widgets, OIDC SSO and custom headers.

If you're looking for a quiet, focused space for your audiobook library, welcome to Still.
