There are some other methods you can take, like the following two ways I'm going to share with you. But the following two methods are useful only for certain Android/Kindle Fire devices and the Audible books transferred are still DRM-protected Audible files.
2. Move Audible Books to SD card on Audible
Some Android users may come across this error message when trying to download Audible books to Android: "SD Card required. Please make sure the SD card is mounted in your device."
This method is specially for Android users who are running out of storage on Android and want to change the location of downloaded Audible files to a removable SD card. Before taking the following steps, please make sure you have already inserted an SD card to your Android device.
Step 1 Open the Audible app on your Android phone/tablet.
Step 2 Tap the Menu in the upper left and then choose Settings.
Step 3 Tap Download Settings and find Download Location.
Step 4 Choose the SD card from the list of download locations. It should be the second item listed on the page.
Notes:
1. If your Android device doesn't have an SD card slot, you are unable to take this method.
2. It is not advised to download Audible books to SD card on the Android Audible app since you may experience playback issues with your audiobooks.
3. Audible audiobooks which are saved in SD card by taking this method can only be played on limited compatible Audible devices but not other more devices such as cars, televisions and portable MP3 players because Audible audiobooks are all DRM-protected in special file format AAX, AA, or the Audible new format AAXC.
3. Move Audible Books to SD Card on Kindle Fire
If you have a Kindle Fire tablet that can be inserted with an SD card, you can also move Audible books to SD card on Kindle Fire. The Kindle Fire tablet requires OS 5.2.1 or higher. And this is only compatible with the following Fire Tablets:

Fire HD 10 (10.1-inch touch screen)
Step 1 Swipe down from the top of the screen and choose Settings.
