The end of the Audible app?
Well, maybe not just yet, but it may be coming. It's replacement - the Kindle app!

Personally I think it's a terrible idea. The Kindle app is big (no, huge) and takes forever and a day to load. Finding things in my book library is getting to be next to impossible. Now we mix them with my Audible titles? I smell disaster.

Not to worry. It doesn't add in additional items. It just tags your kindle books with an indicator if you have the WfV audio too. You can access the audio from the menu.
