Where do iTunes Audiobooks go on iPhone?
iTunes Audiobooks used to be managed through the iTunes app on older versions of iOS. However, with the release of iOS 10 and later, Apple has separated Audiobooks into a standalone app called “Audiobooks.” Therefore, if you are using a device with iOS 10 or later, you won’t find these audiobooks in the iTunes app.
To find your iTunes Audiobooks on iPhone, you need to follow these steps:
1. Look for the “Audiobooks” app on your iPhone’s home screen. The icon looks like a white silhouette of a person wearing headphones on a blue background. If you can’t find the app, swipe down on the home screen to access the search bar, and enter “Audiobooks” in the search field.
2. Once you open the “Audiobooks” app, you should see your iTunes Audiobooks library, including any audiobooks you have purchased or imported into iTunes.
3. To access specific audiobooks, tap on the desired title, and it will start playing. You can control playback, adjust the playback speed, and even create bookmarks within the Audiobooks app.
By following these steps, you can easily locate and enjoy your iTunes Audiobooks on your iPhone.
