Apps for iOS and Android support offline listening, variable playback speed, sleep timers, and seamless continuation across devices, plus CarPlay and Android Auto for commutes.
Key features:
- Own your audiobooks with permanent purchases, not just streaming access
- Audioteka Originals with exclusive audio dramas and productions
- Club subscription for discounted regular listening
- Offline playback with downloads on iOS and Android
- CarPlay and Android Auto for hands-free listening on the road

Audioteka is headquartered in Warsaw, Poland, operates across multiple European markets, and processes listener data under GDPR. Its local-language depth in Polish, Czech, and neighboring markets is unmatched by US platforms.
Ideal for Central European listeners who want audiobooks in their own language, owned outright, from a Polish company.
