“Hey Siri, resume Impact Winter, Season 2 on Audible.”

Now, iOS users around the world are able to begin, resume, and control playback of their Audible titles with simple voice commands.

Runners can say, “Hey Siri, play Audible,” to resume their listen where they left off without ever breaking stride. Cooks can speed up narration without looking away from the stove by asking Siri to read faster or slower. And gardeners don’t have to dirty their iPhones to replay a line they missed—just a simple, “Hey Siri, go back 5 seconds,” will do.

This new capability adds to a robust offering of hands-free listening options for Audible, including on Alexa devices like Echo and with Alexa enabled in the Audible app.
