How to Put Audiobook to iPhone
Audiobooks are perfect for those who used to enjoy reading but can't get the time to sit down and read a book, so they can listen to someone else narrating them while they're on the go. What's more interesting is that audiobooks are known to keep people focused and elevate a book's experience, depending on who's narrating it. It can help relax those who enjoy books in their free time, support multitasking, enable people to read more books, and even allow listeners to adjust the speed to listen to books as quickly or slowly as possible. We're not surprised if you're looking for ways to transfer audiobook to iPhone, as many iOS users and book lovers often do the same.
Before we get into the nitty-gritty details of putting an audiobook on an iPhone, it is pertinent to mention that most iOS users prefer the M4B version over MP3 files. The former allows iOS users to mark the point where they stopped a file and continue listening to an audiobook from where they left off without any difficulty. This native audiobook format for iPhones and all other iOS devices will also let you divide an audiobook into as many chapters as you'd like using the markers in the iBooks app on your iPhone.
In contrast, an MP3 file is supported by both Android and iOS devices. However, this format will go into your Music app when added to your iPhone, eliminating the essential markers that you can use in iBooks with the M4B versions. Now that we've clarified the critical differences between the two audiobook formats, you can make an informed decision on which one to use when transferring an audiobook to iPhone.

How to Put an Audiobook to an iPhone Using a Mac?
You can sync audiobooks between your Mac and iPhone or any other iOS device through the Audiobooks app on your Mac. However, it is pertinent to note that Windows users can't follow these steps, and they contain several complicated steps and settings that might make your experience daunting, to say the least.
If you consider yourself tech-savvy and think you can handle a complicated process, you can sync audiobooks from Mac to iPhone by following the below-mentioned steps:
Connect your iPhone to your Mac using Wi-Fi or a USB cable, depending on your iPhone's model
Select your iPhone after opening the "Finder" from the sidebar
Select the "Audiobooks" option from the list of options at the top
Select the "All Audiobooks" or "Selected Audiobooks" option depending on which files you want on your iPhone
Once you've selected the audiobooks that you want to sync, click on Apply and wait for the synchronization process to complete
It is pertinent to mention that you won't be able to add audiobooks to your iPhone using this method if you don't already have them synced as audiobooks on your Mac, so ensure that your audiobooks are saved in the books' library before you connect your phone.
How Can You Sync Audiobooks from iTunes to Your iPhone?
Unfortunately, this option is not available for Mac users as Apple has discontinued this app for this specific device type. However, you're good to go if you own a Windows PC.
It's crucial to note, however, that if you've downloaded the audiobooks from iTunes, it's only then that your transfer will be relatively more straightforward. The following steps detail how you can use iTunes to sync your audiobooks:
Ensure that you have the latest version of the iTunes app downloaded and installed on your PC
Connect your iPhone to your Windows PC using a cable wire
Click on the device icon in the iTunes window
Click on "Audiobooks" and check the "Sync Audiobook" selection
Select all the audiobooks you'd like to transfer to your iPhone
6. Click on the "Apply" button to start the transfer of your files
It is also vital to remember that if you don't already have the audiobooks on your PC and create a new selection for the synchronization selection, all your previously synced books, TV shows, and movies will be replaced. So, make sure you're careful when you're using iTunes to sync such files.
