Hu Julie, are using the Audible app on your phone? If so, hit the "share" button, and then select any of the media apps (message, Facebook etc). This will tell you the percentage of the book you have finished, and then you can work out the page count from there.

After you have the percentage you can cancel the "share". Hope that helps for the future :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

That might be a lot better than the way I worked it out Michelle! Thanks for that :) I'll be curious to see the difference in what I told Jools and what it shows on that...
