AudioBuddy support

Import a supported audio file, download a LibriVox audiobook, or add a podcast. Open Settings → Companion to choose an AI provider. Cloud services may require your own account and API key and incur their normal usage charges.

M4B, M4A, MP3, AAC, MP4, WAV, AIF/AIFF, CAF and FLAC. DRM-protected or damaged files may not import.

Tap Ask, press ⌘K on Mac, use the configured headphone next-track control, or type. During a reply, tap to interrupt. You can ask a follow-up before returning to playback.

Select an available on-device answer model in Settings. Required models and audio must be present before offline use. Downloading books, episodes or models and using cloud providers requires a network connection.

Download or import the optional Pocket TTS model in Settings → Narrator Voice. Its terms require speaker consent. Without it, AudioBuddy uses a system voice. Adjust the sample position if it contains music or the wrong speaker.

The heard-so-far setting limits the text supplied to the model, but AI can still make mistakes. The whole-book option deliberately allows discussion of later content.

Delete a book or episode from the library to remove its stored audio, transcript, conversation and narrator sample. Provider keys are managed separately in Settings.
