Even though I haven't updated the Audible app, I took a look at the documentation for the latest version and discovered, if I am reading the help file correctly, that moving forward and backward is possible using the "jump forward" and "jump back" swipe maneuvers in button-free mode. Has anyone tried button-free mode? The jump time can evidently be adjusted.
