They do have the apps and they work quite well, but with one major drawback. You can only borrow MP3 audiobooks using the app and most of the audiobooks are in WMA format. Borrowing WMA audiobooks requires a Windows PC and sideloading to a compatible
audio player; which generally means a no-go for Android devices. iDevices are compatible, if the publisher allows it. If WMA is allowed, it takes much longer to download it to your computer because of the conversion process.
