Hi everyone, I have been a Tidal user for a couple of years and this might be a ridiculous question but where are the audiobooks. Apparently they are available but I have no idea where to find them.

Does Tidal have audiobooks? In short answer, yes!
You must be surprised that Tidal provides audiobooks for its users. Me, too. Tidal even hides the podcasts feature to encourage users to focus on exploring music rather than streaming other content. We appreciate that Tidal is firmly keeping its desire for better music. However, for most users, it's not a bad thing to explore more interesting content to relax.
So, the audiobooks on Tidal provide listeners with another way to stream on Tidal. And we noticed that there are still some users who have no idea how to find it. No problem, we will help you to find it and stream it on your streamer. If you are a lover of audiobooks, we also share with you a useful method to download the audiobooks on Tidal, avoiding Tidal removing the audiobooks forever.
Part 1. Does Tidal Have Audiobooks?
Yes, you can find kinds of audiobooks on Tidal. But, different from other music streaming services, Tidal doesn't set a special section for Audiobooks. In Spotify or Amazon Music, you can stream the audiobooks through the audiobooks or podcast window. And Tidal only sets the audiobooks to different albums and playlists.
So, the only way to get the audiobooks on Tidal is to use Tidal search. That's also the reason that some users can't get the audiobooks from the search results. The algorithm of Tidal search is silly. It may display unrelated content in the search results. That's why people search for audiobooks on Tidal, and they only find an artist's name as audiobooks. If you know the name of audiobooks you want to listen to, you can directly search for the name in the Tidal search bar.
Get audiobooks from Tidal via Tidal search
- Open Tidal on your screen.
