Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I copy some audio files to google drive so I can listen on android/kindle. The Audible program has issues.

Describe the solution you'd like A reveal folder option that opens the folder that contains the audio file into explorer.

You might be able to set the download location to your Google Drive folder (this is assuming you have the space available on Google Drive for you entire Audible library). Another option, if you have a computer handy to set up as a "dedicated server", would be to set up an audiobookshelf server (https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf), and use the Android app to listen to your books through that. I use audiobookshelf here myself.

Thanks, but there isn't enough space on Google Drive and the current directory structure doesn't support finding content easily. I'll look into audiobookshelf, but unless it can copy to the local device it would mean excessive charges while driving.

Downloading to the phone is an option, yes. I'd suggest doing that while connected to wifi at home.

Edit: As for the directory structure, that is whatever you tell Libation the directory structure should be in the settings.
