Is there a feature you've recently discovered in an app available on F-Droid that might not be obvious to casual users of the app? This is your chance to share it!

This is perfect. Just 20 minutes ago I tried to start an audiobook using VLC. The scrubbing function on that app kinda blows - cheers for the tip.

For audiobooks, i can recommend Voice.

Yeah, the ability to use the bluetooth or android auto forward/backward jump buttons to skip a few seconds instead of entire tracks makes AntennaPod nice for audiobooks or other long form audio.
