Witbound aligns an audiobook with the matching ebook text so readers can follow along as the narration plays. It supports user-provided EPUB or PDF books and M4B or MP3 audio, and can connect to an Audiobookshelf server. The developer says the ebook remains on device and the app does not require an account or tracking. Optional cloud sync sends English audiobook audio to the developer’s server over Wi-Fi to speed up alignment, then deletes the audio, according to the listing. The first book sync is free; Witbound Plus unlocks a full shelf with either a lifetime purchase or yearly subscription. This may help readers who prefer synchronized text and audio, but alignment can depend on having the correct edition and recording.
