Voice Dream Reader and problem with listening to audiobooks

Hey everyone,
I have a problem playing audiobooks in Voice Dream Reader. I have reporting it to the developer for several months, but it has still not been resolved.
So maybe the problem doesn't exist, but something strange is happening to me.
Or maybe there is a workaround.
The problem looks like this:
1. I play the audiobook,
2. I press pause
3. I do something else on the phone, e.g. I read messages,
4. I play the book again using the "Magic TAp" gesture or the ∑ button on the headphones.
5. the book is playing,
6. When it reaches the end of the file in the playlist, it doesn't go to the next one, it just skip back to the beginning,
7. If during playback of the current file in the list I try to stop playback, nothing happens, but after the second attempt the playback point moves to the place of the previous stop.

Can you confirm this error?
Do you have any idea for this?

Thanks

I face the same issues with voice dream. I hope they find a way to solve it. Currently I use an app called bookplayer to play my audiobooks in m4b.

It is quite annoying. The only workaround for this is to play / pause exclusively inside the app.

I wonder if there was some change in iOS that precipitated this as I was having similar problems with the BARD app 4 or 5 months ago.
