Pros and cons
Pros
- Access is unlimited, so there is no hours cap to track and nothing to spend down.
- The catalogue holds 240,000 titles, which ranks 9 of 20 brands on that measure.
- Reading and listening sit in the same subscription, since the plan covers audiobooks and ebooks.
- Support reaches members on email, phone and help centre, giving more routes to a person than a help centre alone.
Cons
- The entry price of PLN 44.99 sits under the standard monthly price of PLN 49.99, so the lowest figure on display is not the standard rate.
- The free trial of 3 days ranks 15 of 16, at the back of the trial-length table.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre with no live chat listed, so an instant reply is not part of the mix.
- Coverage stays in Poland and Germany (PL and DE), which narrows the plan for readers elsewhere.
Who it suits
- Readers in Poland and Germany (PL and DE) who want one subscription covering reading and listening.
- Catalogue browsers who care about breadth, since 240,000 titles sit under unlimited access.
- Anyone who prefers to pick up the phone, since email, phone and help centre includes it.
Who should look elsewhere
- Audible, for readers who only want to listen and would rather weigh a monthly figure of CAD 8.99.
- Readability, for readers who want a second monthly reading price of $19.99 to set against PLN 49.99.
- AfriKDP, for readers who want another price point, at $3 a month, outside the Polish and German footprint.
Plans and prices
Legimi's standard monthly plan is priced at PLN 49.99, and the entry price on the same plan is PLN 44.99. Readers weighing cost at entry and afterwards should treat the lower figure as the opening rate and the standard monthly figure as the level the plan sits at, because those are the only two amounts listed. The gap between them is narrow, so there is no deep introductory discount to bank on, and the standard monthly rate is the figure to compare with other reading and listening subscriptions. For a full year of reading, the standard monthly figure multiplied by the months you expect to stay is the spend to plan around, and the entry price does not change that arithmetic. Both amounts belong to the Legimi plan, so the plan name stays the same beside each price.
Core features
Most of the decision here rests on the catalogue and the trial. The catalogue holds 240,000 titles, which is a broad shelf to draw from under a single subscription, and the free trial runs 3 days. That trial is short enough to matter: long enough to open the app, browse a few categories and play a sample, but not long enough to settle into a monthly habit before the first payment. Plan around it by using the trial to test what a pricing page cannot show, such as whether the titles on your list are in the catalogue and whether narration suits a commute. The catalogue figure does more work here than the trial length does, because breadth decides whether an unlimited plan feels unlimited in daily use. If your reading list is long, size of the shelf matters more than the length of the trial.
How it compares on our data
On catalogue size Legimi ranks 9 of 20 brands, which is the strongest of the measures listed here. On the monthly price it sits at 12 of 22, and the entry price at 12 of 24, so cost lands mid-table rather than at either end of the range. Free trial length is the weak spot, with 15 of 16 placing Legimi at the back of that ranking. The overall picture is a brand strong on what it offers and unremarkable on where it prices, the shape to expect from a service competing on breadth inside a single market.
The company behind it
The service is operated by Legimi S.A., a company headquartered in Poland (PL). Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so members can reach the company by email, by phone or through the help centre without going through an agent or a third party. A named legal entity and a clear base matter for readers who want to know which company they are contracting with and who answers when a payment goes wrong. The channel mix is wider than a single help centre, which shortens the route to a person on payment and account questions. Readers who want a direct line rather than a ticket queue have more than one way in.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Legimi cost each month?+
Legimi's standard monthly plan is priced at PLN 49.99, and its entry price is PLN 44.99. The entry figure sits under the standard monthly rate, so the number to plan a budget around is PLN 49.99. Both amounts belong to the same Legimi plan.
Does Legimi offer a free trial?+
Yes, Legimi offers a free trial of 3 days. That is a short window for judging narration quality and how often you actually read before paying. It is the main thing to weigh against the longer trials common elsewhere in this category.
Does Legimi include both ebooks and audiobooks?+
Yes, the plan covers audiobooks and ebooks, so reading and listening sit in the same subscription instead of separate products. That suits readers who move between a screen and headphones across the same day. The catalogue behind both formats holds 240,000 titles.
Is access to Legimi unlimited?+
Yes, Legimi's access model is unlimited, so there is no hours cap to track and no credits to spend down. Reading as much as you like does not change the monthly figure of PLN 49.99. Heavy readers get the most from a plan shaped this way.
How large is the Legimi catalogue?+
The Legimi catalogue holds 240,000 titles, which puts it at 9 of 20 brands on catalogue size. That matches the category median of 240,000, so the depth is solid rather than exceptional.
Where can I use Legimi?+
Legimi runs in Poland and Germany (PL and DE), with the company headquartered in Poland (PL). Availability is the clearest filter here: outside those markets the catalogue and the plan do not apply. The service is operated by Legimi S.A..
How do I contact Legimi support?+
Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so email, phone and a help centre are all listed. Live chat is not among them, which matters if you want an instant reply rather than a queued one. That channel mix is worth checking before you subscribe.
How does Legimi's price compare with Audible and Readability?+
Legimi's standard monthly plan is PLN 49.99, while Readability lists $19.99 a month and Audible lists CAD 8.99, and AfriKDP lists $3. The figures are in different currencies, so the gap follows the exchange rate as much as the plan, and the catalogues differ in scope.
