Hi Kswarn24... You can store them in Apple's Books App which should be already downloaded on your phone.

How to sync audio books to iPhone? I have some audio books on my iPhone from a while back. I added a new audio book to Books on my desktop. I expected it to show up on my iPhone, since I sync books over icloud. The new book didn't show up. In the end, I connected my phone with a usb cable to my desktop, and discovered that the only thing I apparently have ever synced in the recent past using this approach were (wait for it) Audiobooks! Apparently it has been a while. Technically my audio book was a spoken word mp3 which I wanted to listen to like an audio book since I wanted the +/- 10 seconds feature that is not there in the music player app. Is syncing over the cable really the only way for audio books to get on my phone?

Can't play MP3 format audiobooks in iPhone Books app Hey gang, So I can't get audiobook MP3s to play on my Books app on my iPhone. I synced them using Finder and I found two things immediately: if an audiobook contains multiple MP3s, each file shows up as a separate book in the app. Second, none of the imported files will play. At all. I've deleted the books app and reinstalled, then synced my audiobook library again--no joy. They show up just fine in the desktop app, and I don't have any problem playing them on the desktop either. It's just the iPhone that makes this a hassle. TL;DR: when I sync my MP3 audiobooks to the Books app on the iPhone, the individual MP3s show up as separate audiobooks that don't play anyway. Anyone have any ideas? Do I need to change the file format or something?
