I'm trying to play the read-aloud ESV audio to play on my android phone, but I can't seem to find a way to go about that. Help?

    Hi Tim - and welcome to the forums

    There should now be an audio icon against the ESV Bible in your library panel.

    Can you see one?

    I had to remove the ESV resource from my phone's library and download it again before I got that Speaker icon in the library.

    (Still haven't figured out how to play the audio. I haven't seen an opportunity to *download* the audio, and can't seem to touch that icon.)

    After reinstalling the app, I got it to work.

    The audio icon in the library currently just means that there's audio available for that resource (in the next version of the app, it will be a button that you can click to start the audio).

    To play the audio, you can just open the ESV to the verse you want to listen to and swipe up to show the action menu and you should see a "Play Audio" button which will start the audio. Per our arrangement with the publisher, the ESV audio can only be played while online and cannot be downloaded to your device for offline use.

    Thanks, Drew.

    I do have that menu option now, and it works.

    Thanks also for explaining that it's via Internet only. That's a shame, as I was recommending it to friend who wanted to listen to Scripture while delivering outside the metro area most of the time, and of course that means no reliable internet. The idea was to Bluetooth it into his truck radio, but obviously that's not going to work. Back to the old CDs.
