About the Glassboxx Digital eBook Reader and Audiobook Player App

The Glassboxx App

We designed the Glassboxx App with UX at the forefront of our thinking, shortening the user journey to create a closer relationship between you and your readers. Our market-leading DRM covers eBooks and audiobooks within the app, and we have built this into the user journey so that in just moments readers and listeners can access any digital content they have purchased – provided it’s not a pre-order! (which will be accessible upon the books publishing date).

Our app is available across multiple platforms; Android, iOS Windows, and macOS. This enables as much choice as possible when it comes to how, when and where content is consumed, empowering people to read their content their way. 

Android/iOS

Our Android and iOS apps enable readers to access their eBooks and audiobooks on their smartphones and tablets. All content is protected and, once downloaded on Wi-Fi, can be opened offline – great for readers or listeners on the go!

Windows/macOS

Our Windows and macOS apps enable readers to access their eBooks and audiobooks on their desktop or laptop – this is particularly useful for students and academics using Glassboxx. Our apps sync across all devices, so you can start a book on your phone and finish it on your laptop, without ever losing your place.
