It just plays.

Media servers

Whatever you're already self-hosting

Audex connects directly to the server you already run. Browse Albums, Artists, Genres, and Playlists exactly the way your server organizes them — because it's your real library, not a copy synced into ours.

  • Live connection status per server, right on the row — reconnect with one tap
  • Download anything for offline listening before a commute drops your signal
  • Jellyfin, Emby, Plex, and Kodi also stream your movies and shows, not just audio
  • Connect more than one — switch between them from the same source picker

Local files & cloud folders

No server? Your files work just as well

Point Audex at any folder on your device, or connect Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, a WebDAV address, or an SMB network share. Everything groups itself into Albums, Artists, and Folders automatically — no manual tagging.

  • One-tap shortcuts for the folders WhatsApp voice notes and your phone's own recorder already use
  • A connected cloud folder downloads once, then plays like any local file — no live connection needed after
  • Search scoped to whichever source you're browsing — local files, a server, or your books
Google Drive Dropbox OneDrive WebDAV SMB share

PDF & EPUB, read aloud

Turn any book into an audiobook

Import a PDF or EPUB and Audex reads it back to you, chapter by chapter — using the book's own table of contents, not a blind page-count guess. As it reads, the line being spoken highlights on screen so you can follow along.

  • A fully offline neural voice, once downloaded — no internet needed to keep reading
  • Or your phone's built-in text-to-speech, zero setup required
  • Or bring your own Google Cloud key for studio-grade voices — billed to your own account, never shared with anyone else's usage
  • Download a book's narration per chapter, so a long commute doesn't need signal

Reading
Treasure Island
N. C. Wyeth's 1911 cover illustration for Treasure Island, public domain

Ch. 1 — The Old Sea-Dog

The old sea-dog took up his lodging at the Admiral Benbow.

His stories were what frightened people worst of all.

Sea-songs, mostly, of a very desperate character.

Sound, tuned to you

A real equalizer, not a toy one

Pick your actual headphones from 113 curated AutoEQ profiles, and Audex reshapes the curve to match them — not a generic bass/treble slider pretending to know your gear.

  • ReplayGain loudness correction, so you're not reaching for the volume dial between tracks
  • Independent speed and pitch control — slow a lecture down without the chipmunk effect
  • A sleep timer with a fixed duration or "end of chapter"
  • Cast to any Chromecast-compatible TV or speaker, from any source

Questions

A few things people ask first

Do I need a media server to use Audex?
No — local files, cloud folders, internet radio, and your own PDFs/EPUBs all work with nothing else set up. A media server is one more source, not a requirement.
What happens after the 30-day trial?
A single $5 payment through Google Play, and it's yours for good — no subscription, no recurring charge.
Does it work without an internet connection?
Yes — local files, anything you've downloaded, and on-device text-to-speech voices all work with no connection at all.
Which media servers does it support?
Jellyfin, Emby, Plex, Subsonic and its compatible siblings (Navidrome, OpenSubsonic), Audiobookshelf, and Kodi.
