Our verdict
Mofibo suits households and multilingual readers who want audiobooks, ebooks and podcasts in a single subscription with family profiles. Its hour cap of 100 and fees of DKK 129 a month make it a heavier commitment than lighter reading apps, but the catalogue of 1,000,000 titles is the widest of the picks here.

Pros and cons
Pros
- A single subscription covers audiobooks, ebooks and podcasts, so the same fee serves reading and listening.
- Family profiles are included, so several household members can set up their own lists under the same plan.
- The free trial of 30 days is longer than the typical trial in this group.
- Offline downloads are supported, which suits commutes and flights where data is poor or costly.
- The catalogue holds 1,000,000 titles, far above the group median.
Cons
- Listening is capped at 100 hours, so heavy audiobook listeners will outgrow the plan quickly.
- Fees of DKK 129 a month sit above $3 and $19.99 for readers who only want text.
- The entry price of DKK 89 is higher than the starting prices of most services in this group.
- Access follows an hour cap of 100 rather than an unlimited model, so a long audiobook and a daily commute compete for the same hours.
Who it suits
- Households that want one account structure with family profiles for several readers and listeners.
- Readers who move between audiobooks, ebooks and podcasts and want all of them in the same app.
- Multilingual readers who want a catalogue far larger than a typical paid ebook service offers.
Who should look elsewhere
- Listeners who want unlimited hours, since Mofibo caps listening at 100 hours.
- Readers on a strict budget, since Mofibo costs more than AfriKDP at $3 a month.
- People who want text only with no listening, since Readability starts at $19.99 a month for that.
Where it sits among rivals
Mofibo leads this group on listening limits, ranking 1 of 4 for its hours cap, and its catalogue of 1,000,000 titles places it 4 of 20, well above the typical service here. The free trial of 30 days also ranks high, at 3 of 16. Price is the softer spot. The entry price of DKK 89 sits at 15 of 24, and monthly fees of DKK 129 rank 18 of 22, so Mofibo is priced above most of the field. The pattern is a broad catalogue and a long trial bought with a higher fee, which suits readers who read and listen a lot and accept a ceiling on listening hours.
Pricing
Mofibo quotes a monthly figure and a lower entry figure. The monthly plan runs at DKK 129, while the cheapest way into the service is DKK 89. Read those as different commitments: the monthly figure is the standard cost of keeping the subscription running, and the entry figure is the cheapest route into the catalogue rather than a separate tier with fewer features. Compared with the reading apps in this roundup, both sit at the higher end. Audible lists CAD 8.99 for its membership, Readability charges $19.99 a month for text, and AfriKDP comes in at $3. Mofibo costs more than each of them, and what the higher fee buys is the widest catalogue here plus ebooks, podcasts and family profiles under the same payment. Budgets set for a single-format reading app will need a larger allowance.
What it does well
Mofibo is built around an hour cap rather than unlimited listening, and the cap is 100 hours. That ceiling is generous for casual listening and tight for anyone working through long audiobooks back to back, so it is worth checking against how much audio a household actually plays. The catalogue holds 1,000,000 titles, and the same subscription covers audiobooks, ebooks and podcasts, so a reader can follow a printed book, its audio edition and related podcasts without a separate payment. Family profiles are supported, which lets several household members keep separate lists, bookmarks and progress under a single plan, and offline downloads are available for travel. A free trial of 30 days gives time to test the cap and the catalogue before paying, and a student discount is offered to eligible readers. Together these make Mofibo a household subscription rather than a single-seat listening plan.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Mofibo cost a month?+
The monthly plan is DKK 129, and the lowest entry point into the service is DKK 89. Those are the figures Mofibo quotes, with the monthly one being what you pay to keep the subscription active. Both sit above the monthly prices listed for Audible, Readability and AfriKDP in this group, so Mofibo is the premium end of the picks here.
Is there a free trial at Mofibo?+
Yes, Mofibo offers a free trial of 30 days, which is a long window for testing a subscription. That is long next to the trials most services in this category offer, and it gives a household time to check both the catalogue and the listening cap before paying. Use the trial to measure how much audio gets played in a normal month.
How many hours of listening does Mofibo allow?+
Mofibo runs on an hour cap of 100 hours rather than unlimited listening. That is a real ceiling for anyone who listens every day, and it is the main trade-off in the subscription. Casual listeners will rarely reach it, while people who work through long audiobooks may need to plan which titles fit inside the cap.
How large is the Mofibo catalogue?+
The catalogue holds 1,000,000 titles, which is well above what most reading services of this kind carry. Size matters most for readers who want breadth rather than a fixed shelf, and for households reading in more than one language. The wider choice also reduces the chance that cap-limited hours are spent on a title you finish early.
Does one Mofibo subscription include ebooks and podcasts?+
Yes, the same subscription covers audiobooks, ebooks and podcasts, so audio, text and podcasts share a single payment. That is the main argument for paying more than a text-only service such as Readability, which charges $19.99 a month. If you use only one of those formats, the bundle is more than you need.
Can several people use one Mofibo account?+
Family profiles are supported, so household members can keep separate lists, bookmarks and reading progress under one subscription. This is the feature that turns Mofibo from a single-seat plan into a household plan, and it is the reason a higher monthly fee can still work out cheaper per reader. The listening cap is shared, so profiles do not multiply the hours.
Does Mofibo work offline for travel?+
Offline downloads are supported, so titles can be saved on a device and played without a connection. That matters on flights, commutes and anywhere data is slow or costly. The downloads sit inside the same 100 hour cap, so pick the titles you want offline before you travel rather than after.
Who gets a Mofibo discount?+
A student discount is offered to eligible readers, and it applies to the standard plans rather than to a separate product. Alongside the 30 day trial, it gives eligible readers another way to test the service before committing to monthly fees of DKK 129.
