    If you ever wished you could listen to an Audiobook and read the e-book at the same time with the spoken lines highlighted in the book in sync, then this is the app for you. Storyteller has solved the problem I had with Audiobooks where I would lose track of what was said and then had to skip back again and again to listen to what I missed, with this app once you have synced your ebook and audiobook, it will highlight the current line that the Audiobook is at and you can scroll the pages...

If you ever wished you could listen to an Audiobook and read the e-book at the same time with the spoken lines highlighted in the book in sync, then this is the app for you. Storyteller has solved the problem I had with Audiobooks where I would lose track of what was said and then had to skip back again and again to listen to what I missed, with this app once you have synced your ebook and audiobook, it will highlight the current line that the Audiobook is at and you can scroll the pages backwards and forwards to read what you missed when you lost track. It's the perfect app to consume books when travelling, cause you can listen to the audiobook when you are walking and then read the book when you are seated without worrying about finding the right page.

What is Storyteller?

Storyteller is a self-hosted platform for creating and reading ebooks with synced narration. It's made of three components: the API server, the web interface, and the mobile apps. Together, these components allow you to take audiobooks and ebooks that you already own and automatically synchronize them, as well as read or listen to (or both!) the resulting synced books.

Sync your audiobooks and ebooks

Storyteller is a platform for automatically syncing audiobooks and ebooks.

Read or listen however you choose

Storyteller produces EPUB 3 compliant ebook files. You can read them with any ebook reader (software or hardware!) that supports EPUB Media Overlays, or you can use the dedicated Storyteller mobile apps.

Own your books

Storyteller is completely self-hosted. All of your books stay on your hardware, and you're free to move, copy, and back them up as needed.
