It helps to include your iPhone model, your iOS version, and the name of the book involved.
Questions people ask
Can I add audiobooks I bought on Audible or Apple Books? No. Those shops lock their audiobooks so that only their own apps can play them. Audiobooks sold without that lock, such as those from Libro.fm, work: add the files, or the ZIP they come in, from the Files app.
Why is there no text yet? Narrate makes the text by listening to the audiobook on your iPhone, a few chapters ahead of you. The first chapter takes a little while, and you can listen in the meantime.
Which languages get text? The languages your iPhone's on-device speech recognition supports. A book in another language still plays, without the text.
Where are my books? In iCloud Drive, in the Narrate folder, so they are on every iPhone signed in to your Apple Account. With iCloud Drive off, they stay on this iPhone.
