Before you go to bed, you can help yourself wind down by listening to unfamiliar languages, natural soundscapes, or the screams of animals. On the other hand, listening to some audiobooks can help you relax and get ready for bed if you're having trouble falling or staying asleep at night. It is pretty easy to listen to your favourite stories over and over again when you use Audible.
Audible has launched a sleep timer option that makes listening to books while sleeping more enjoyable for customers who choose to do so. This option is available for those who prefer to listen to their readers while sleeping. Before going to sleep, many of you like to listen to your favourite audiobooks, but you're worried about how to switch them off once you've already dozed off. Who exactly is going to put an end to your audiobook at this point? Have no concerns! You are free to take it easy and kick back and relax.
Follow these instructions on your mobile/PC device in order to use the Audible sleep timer feature.
