Voca Player
Voca Player is an audiobook player that connects to personal Plex or Audiobookshelf libraries and also plays local audiobook files.
What is Voca Player?
Voca Player is an audiobook app for listening to books from a personal Plex Media Server, an Audiobookshelf server, or files stored directly on your device. It is designed for people who manage their own audiobook collections and want a focused player instead of a general music or podcast app. Common tasks include streaming from a home library, downloading books for offline listening, resuming progress across devices, and using chapter controls, bookmarks, and playback-speed adjustments during long listening sessions. The app also supports companion files such as PDFs or EPUBs that are stored with a book, which can be useful for maps, liner notes, or supplemental reading. Voca Player is available across Apple and Android platforms, with support described for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch, CarPlay, and Android Auto. Velosec publishes the app.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is a legitimate media app for personal audiobook libraries. Network access and access to local media files are normal for its purpose, and offline downloads or synced listening progress are expected features for this kind of player. If you connect it to a self-hosted server, the app may store server connection details and playback state so it can keep your library available and remember your place. Keep it if you use Plex, Audiobookshelf, or local audiobook files, and use the in-app sign-out or server removal options before uninstalling if you want to clear saved connections from the device.
Recommendation: Keep Voca Player if you listen to audiobooks from your own server or local files. If you no longer use it, removing the app is reasonable and will stop access to its downloads, saved settings, and locally stored playback data on this Mac or device.
