INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Didn''t get your fill of Amazon news among the 70 or so announcements at today Alexa event Good news, Audible got something to add to the
The Amazon-owned audiobook site just announced the availability of its Apple Watch app
The offering brings pretty much what you&d expect
You can listen to audiobooks and manage your library directly from the small screen
It a pretty logical next step for the service, given the focus Apple has put on smartwatch audio, between last year addition of an LTE
version of the watch and the recent announcement of a native podcasting app for the platform
This also goes a ways toward justifying the recent addition of Aaptiv fitness routines, which Audible added a few weeks back
The offering made some sense on the phone, but bringing the course directly to a fitness/health-focused product like the Apple Watch helps
complete that vision.Those workout and meditation offerings are free to Audible users through September of next year
