Get started with Audely

How Audely works

  1. Choose your audio folders. Audely reads podcast downloads and audiobooks from folders you select.
  2. Choose what each folder contains. Import it as Podcasts, Audiobooks, or a mixture. Mixed folders let you identify the audiobook files before anything enters the library.
  3. Audely builds your library. Podcasts become shows and episodes. Audiobooks become books and parts. Artwork, organisation, progress, favourites, notes, podcast transcripts, and preferences live in Audely without changing your source audio.
  4. Sync when you want to. With Audely Pro, Audely can keep supported library information up to date across your devices using iCloud.

Important to know

  • Audely does not move or rewrite the audio in your chosen folders.
  • Removing a source folder, podcast, episode, audiobook, or part from Audely does not delete the original audio file.
  • Source audio is never included in Audely sync or cloud backups.
  • Audely requires no separate account and collects no analytics.
