iBooks and Audiobooks sync question
Does anyone know if iBooks syncs bookmarks if the same audiobook is on an iPad and an iPhone? Or does any other app do it apart from Audible. I'm asking both for Audible audiobooks authorised in iTunes and for DRM free audiobooks.

Any app suggestions would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks.

I think I've worked it out but any app recommendations would be great. Thanks

As long as you sync via iTunes, I believe that it will sync books marks. Interestingly, as long as the audio book is in your iTunes library, it appears that all the apps actually play it via iTunes. I tend to use both the Audible app, iBooks and a third party app. I was a bit surprised when the 3rd party app picked up the narration where the Audible app left off.

Thank you. What is the third party app you use, if you don't mind me asking?

You might find some good suggestions for third party apps in the audiobooks subforum.

Thank you. I'll take a look when I have the time. I wasn't sure where this thread really belonged.
