I know that Palace does downloads (not just streaming) because there's a setting (unchecked by default) to avoid downloading on cellular data. But telling whether a particular audiobook is downloaded? If you can do that I don't see how

If you drag down from the top of the screen while Palace is playing a book, you *can* pause it, but you *cannot* tap the... I don't know the word, the bar for the app currently playing audio? You can't tap that to bring that app up to the front of the screen, and the skip back / skip forward buttons in that bar don't work

But after you pause the book from that bar, you can't *unpause* it from there.

All this is to say: if you know anyone at Lyrasis, please tell them that I will do free UX testing for them
(Once. And if anything gets improved, I will do it more times if they want :) ) - Oct 16, 2026, 11:03 PM
ROTFL the book will keep playing if you switch to a different app, but it will stop playing if you navigate to a different part of the Palace app, like settings or browsing other books 🤯
