In order to save mobile data while I am on the go, I like to download the audiobooks to my iPhone. However, when I am done listening to them. Either determined by the fact that I finish them or mak them as read manually, I would like for there to be an option to have the audiobook automatically deleted from the device. That way, I don't have to manually do it.

Good idea, maybe with an option to delay the auto delete for a specific time. I mainly listen to podcasts when I go to sleep or when I'm on the commute, so the book would get deleted if I fall asleep when it's finished so I can't listen to the rest I have missed on my way to work.
