I got the delete function to work, but it would be nice to have it as an action in the loving actions rotor. Audible's method could inconvenience and even fool new users like myself into thinking one cannot delete a book from the app.

Robin, I intend to phone Audible this evening.  I believe this is the third
time in a year or so that they have broken the "delete" function with
VoiceOver.  In an effort to be kind and firm, I intend to play the role of
a customer of over ten years for whom the burden of suffering with their
mis-steps has gone beyond a minor vexation. (smile)

Hi,
Oh wow I’d missed this one.
thanks for teaching me something today.  I wasn’t aware of this current
breakage. Glory can’t they get anything right lately (smile)? Has anyone
reported this one to the Audible folk?
Thanks again for the work around and for teaching me something new.
Robin

Hello, Chris.

The "Delete" button does indeed, at first glance, seem pointless.  Here's
how the deletion process should work. The user double-taps the "Delete"
button. Then, right next to each title on the device, there is another
"Delete" button with the VoiceOver hint "delete from the device." If the
process were working normally, pressing this button would, in fact, delete
the book. Trouble is that the operation isn't working right for VoiceOver
users, but there is a work-around. After you have pressed the initial
"Delete" button, press the "Cloud" button followed by the "Device" button.
In other words, you are shifting focus from your device to the cloud and
back again. Once you have made this focus swap, the second button, the one
with the VoiceOver hint of "delete from device," magically appears. Press
this button, and the book will be gone.

Hi all

Subject says it all, now here is the question. How does a VoiceOver user
delete a book? I see a delete button, but that seems pointless if it
doesn't do anything. Any responses greatly appreciated. Thanks!
