Used permissions:
Phone state: Used to pause during a call. Otherwise it would only be muted by the system.
Wake lock: So the playback isn't stopped when you turn off the screen. Also for some optional features like disabling the auto screen off during playback.
Disable keyguard: In case you only want to use the app's lock screen. (And not return to the default one afterwards.)
Write/delete external storage: For some internal files in \.MortPlayer, e.g. cached folder covers from ID3 tags and track order lists.
Internet: Ads (AdMob)
Boot completed: To reschedule the alarm clock after boot.
Tasks: For "StopService" activity, to avoid the system returns to player afterwards

Somehow it disappeared and I can't find it so now I can barely hear the books with the volume wide open

Very good. But needs a better search bar as some of these files can be huge.

Connecting headphones while phone is connected to computer via usb, crashing the app. Reboot is needed. Functionality is great.

One of the few the will sort mp3 files by metadata rather than just position in filesystem. Remembers positions for multiple books.

I love this App! I have a 3 hour commute every day and I pass the time by listening to audiobooks. This is the app I use. It’s easy to navigate, keeps my place when I stop, and works perfectly.
