Tl dr: So far I've found no better way to get DRM-free audiobooks onto the Apple Watch for offline play than in my original post: download. There might be other apps worth looking at too. It's possible there are functionalities I didn't find (which would say something about their discoverability). Following are quick impressions of the two free apps mentioned at the site. I'll play around in spare hours and will come back here if there are any revelations. Or maybe there's one with a Watch app offering offline play on its own?.

Per, 'LibriVox itself doesn’t produce any apps for the iphone, but we have an open catalog platform and all our books are free, so many others have built iPhone and Android apps for LibriVox.' So it may be possible that one of the other apps has an accessible file system on the iPhone for which a share-sheet entry for iCatcher might be available. In researching Librivox, it seems the app you linked to is one of several that audiobook aficionados have created. So I'm always on the hunt for new sources of content, and I thank you for bringing Librivox onto my radar! For a podcast and audio-content addict like me, the thing is beyond brilliant now that it offers a powerful processor and lots of storage. I loved my original-issue Series 0 Watch for nearly five years, but when I finally upgraded to Series 5 it suddenly snapped into focus what a marvelous platform it is for so many purposes. So, downloading audiobooks from 's website on a Mac, then AirDropping them to iCatcher, seems to be the easiest way to get Librivox content onto your Watch for offline play.

And the Librivox app's download folder on the iPhone seems to be hidden, which is also too bad as you could probably share downloaded audiobooks with iCatcher from the Files app otherwise. That's too bad, as such an option might have allowed iCatcher to receive its content via a share-sheet item. I downloaded Librivox's app from the link you provided but unfortunately it does not seem able to share its downloaded audiobook files with other apps. So you can get them into your Watch for offline listening the same way I documented in the original post starting at step 5, using AirDrop from a Mac to iCatcher on your iPhone, which can then do the transfer to the Watch and let you enjoy offline playback directly from the Watch.

It's really nice to be able to play audio content without having to lug around your iPhone!Ī quick look at 's download website shows that their audiobooks are. Unfortunately the Librivox app does not seem to have a companion Apple Watch app.
