Audiobooks from your Dropbox
Keep your audiobooks in Dropbox and listen on your phone without copying them over first. Nightjar works with your own Dropbox account and plays the books where they are.
How it works
Add Dropbox in Nightjar’s Sources and sign in on Dropbox’s own sign-in page. Dropbox gives Nightjar a folder of its own, Apps/Nightjar, and nothing else: put your books there, and Nightjar sees only that folder.
Starts in seconds, even for long books
Playback begins as soon as the first piece of the book arrives, whether it runs one hour or twenty. Jumping back or skipping ahead fetches just that spot, and what you have already heard stays on the phone — you never wait for a full download.
Offline for the flight
Download a book from its menu to listen without a connection. Remove the download later and the book stays in your library, streaming again when you play it.
Built for long listens
Chapters and bookmarks, playback speed, a sleep timer that can stop at the end of the chapter, and a remembered position in every book — with lock-screen and headphone controls.
Your account stays yours
The Dropbox sign-in is kept in your device’s secure storage, and books go straight from Dropbox to your phone. Nightjar runs no server and never sees your library.
Part of Nightjar Pro
Cloud and network sources are part of Nightjar Pro: a monthly or yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase, with a 7-day trial. Playing files from the phone itself, every way of importing them and Wi-Fi transfer are free.
