Audible is one of the largest and most popular audiobook services out there, and with good reason, as it gives you access to a huge library at a competitive price. Unlike Libby—which is also an excellent audiobook platform—you don't have to sit on a wait list for popular titles, and purchases are (mostly) yours to keep. These are the tricks you need to know to get the most out of Audible and save some money along the way.
Add narration to Kindle to get audiobooks for free or at a low cost
If you like to have the option to either read or listen to your books, you can take advantage of Kindle and Audible crossovers to get the audio version of certain titles for free, or at least less than what you'd pay if you bought them outright on Audible. One option is to add audio upgrades to your purchased Kindle books: you can see which books are eligible and how much the narration add-ons cost using the Matchmaker tool. If you have a Kindle Unlimited subscription, you can also get lots of Prime Reading books with Audible Narration at no additional cost. Finally, when adding a Kindle book to your cart, look for the Add audiobook checkbox to see how much the companion Audible version costs—in some cases, it may be cheaper to purchase the bundle than to use an Audible credit or buy them separately.

Share audiobooks with another user via Amazon Family
If you try to share a single Audible account with multiple users, you won't be able to listen to the same book at the same time without disrupting each other's progress. But you can share purchased titles with other members of your Amazon Family account, which allows keeps individual progress and listening histories separate. An Amazon Family can include two adults and up to four children. Note that you can't share unused credits—only purchased books.

Use the Clip tool to save and annotate specific audio snippets
If you're waiting for audiobooks to go on sale before you buy them, add titles to your wish list to see deals and discounts at a glance all in one place. You can use the list to regularly check for price updates, and Audible may also send email or push notifications when titles you've saved are on sale. In the Audible app, tap Add to Wish List on the title's detail page, and then view your list via Library > Lists > Wish List.
Return purchased titles if you don’t like the book or narrator
Use Libation or OpenAudible to download and back up your books
If you purchase titles on Audible, you'd expect that the files are yours to keep—just like a physical book—but this isn't a guarantee. Third-party platforms like Libation and OpenAudible allow you to download, back up, and convert your audiobook files so you can store and listen to them locally. Libation is free and open source but some users note that it's a bit more technical. OpenAudible has some free functionality, but you'll have to buy either an annual or lifetime subscription to get access to file conversion and other premium features.
