Audible...what am I doing wrong?

46 replies

TwoBigNoisyBoys · 16/01/2021 19:28

I recently realised I am still subscribing to Audible, I clearly forgot to cancel after the free period! I’m happy to do this, because I’m interested in maintaining the subscription IF I can work out how to use my credits and buy titles! According to my records I have 7 credits, but everytime I try to use it against a title, it will only allow me to listen to a sample or add to wish list? What am I doing wrong?! All help gratefully received!

You need to be longed in on the browser/ Amazon app. You can’t buy things though the audible app :)

When you see a book you fancy, click on it and scroll down and there's an option to buy using a credit.

The app is very simple and I prefer it to the desktop site.

Agree i struggled with this too, you can't buy through the app, it's a shit design.

ShandlersWig · 16/01/2021 19:35

Are you logged into the app using you password etc?

Go to the audible website

Flaunch · 16/01/2021 19:36

Log in to www.audible.co.uk/ with your Amazon details. All your wish list stuff will be on there.

Wolfff · 16/01/2021 19:36

If you Google audible shop UK it should bring you to the right place.

Flaunch · 16/01/2021 19:37

Isn’t that the Amazon app, not the audible app?

ShandlersWig · 16/01/2021 19:39

Well this is weird, my app shows I have credits, and can buy via the app.

I buy audible books through the audible app Confused

Goodbye2020Hello2021 · 16/01/2021 19:43

I had to log into amazon on my laptop browser and buy through there. I couldn't buy anything on the app on my phone.

Worst · 16/01/2021 19:43

This is why I didn’t get Audible Confused. I can’t work it!

Insertfunnyname · 16/01/2021 19:44

I can’t buy through the app. It only gives me add to wish list I have to buy off the audible website.

I can't buy through the app. Just log on to the web version. It should be the same as your Amazon password.

helpfulperson · 16/01/2021 19:44

Are you sure you are logged into the app? I definitely buy through the app.

curlyLJ · 16/01/2021 19:46

You can't buy through the app if you're on an iPhone. Something about no agreement between Amazon/apple, so have to use the browser version. Android is fine.

ShandlersWig · 16/01/2021 19:46

Can you check you're using the most updated version? My app is all black background once I'm in it.

teaandcustardcreamsx · 16/01/2021 19:47

IME you can only but from the website, never been able to buy from the app Confused

helpfulperson · 16/01/2021 19:47

The iPhone thing makes sense - I'm on android.
