Call me weird but I don't like to know that an audiobook is almost over. Let me turn it off. Kindle has this feature.

Thanks!!

Like everywhere? Or only necessary in certain places?

Right now you can see it in the following places:

  • Media player
  • Notification
  • Item page (percentage, time remaining)
  • Yellow progress bar at the bottom of the cover

Every where because on my Pixel 6 the only way to play the book is to open
it completely to press the stream button. I see other requests to minimize
the clicks so if you do that then you won't have to hide it in as many
places.

If the widget stayed active at all times so I can press play, it would also
prevent me from seeing the progress. That would be awesome.

Thanks!

Turn off the progress so it doesn't work at all?

Yes. Would be really great to have that option.

I think they're asking for the progress to not be displayed anywhere, but still track the progress in the database.

I would add to this request to also add varying version of progress to display, such as displaying percentage of chapter completed vs percentage of book. Possibly page number instead of position or time remaining but I know those are format specific.
