Re: Audible sync for Windows discontinued

It appears that Audible and AudibleSync are two separate apps. Support has ended/is ending on the Audible app, not AudibleSync.

As of March 6, 2024, the dedicated Audible app for Windows 11 is no longer available for download due to the discontinuation of the Amazon Appstore on Windows 11; however, existing users can still access Audible through AudibleSync which remains supported on Windows 10 and 11, allowing them to listen to their library titles without an expiration date on the functionality itself.
Key points to remember:

* No new downloads: You can't download the separate Audible app on Windows 11 anymore.
* AudibleSync still works: Use the AudibleSync app on Windows 10 and 11 to access your Audible library.
* Alternative options: If you need to download new titles, consider using the Audible mobile app on iOS or Android, or access your library through the Audible website.

I did reach out to Amazon's team on this and will try and get more data to share if they provide it, not to mention the fact that Audible is using an accessibility overlay for their web site.

Tech support this morning confirmed they don't support AudibleSync for Windows 11 but I followed Jeff's advice and reinstalled the app and it is working.
