2020 – 2026
A fond farewell

Learn anything, anywhere, while remembering.

Listenable has signed off. After years of bite-sized audio courses, five-minute lessons, and learning with both hands full, our service has come to a close.

Thank you for listening.

What Listenable was

Powerful, bite-sized audio courses authored by well-loved experts — for everyone who couldn’t live a day without learning.

On-the-go Learning

Five-minute audio lessons you could take anytime, anywhere — even with both hands full.

Hundreds of Courses

Everything from Health and Psychology to Philosophy, Productivity, and Personal Finance.

Taught by the Best

Every course was built by industry experts with a knack for teaching — and a love for it.

The final lesson

From 2020 to 2026, Listenable helped curious people learn something new every day. Thousands of learners pressed play on their commutes, in their kitchens, and on their morning runs. Dozens of teachers shared what they knew best, five minutes at a time.

Every course ends with a final lesson, and this is ours. The service, the apps, and the course library are now permanently closed.

The app we loved to make

Listenable lived in your pocket — here’s how it looked, for old times’ sake.
