About this app

Text Reader is a text to speech app that reads your articles, documents, books, and messages out loud, word for word, in 70+ languages - so you can listen instead of read.

Why listen instead of read

- Rest your eyes and reduce screen time.
- Save battery by listening with the screen off.
- Learn and stay productive while commuting, exercising, cooking, or working with your hands.

Listening

- Listen with the screen locked - control playback from the lock screen, notification, and Bluetooth.
- Adjustable speed - from slow up to 3x for skimming or careful listening.
- Male and female voices, with pitch control to raise or lower the voice.
- Follow-along highlighting - see each word as it is spoken.
- Repeat mode - loop the current text to listen again.
- Resume where you left off - the app remembers your place.

Your texts

- Import PDFs and text files, or share text from any app to start listening instantly.
- Save a library of texts and search it anytime, even offline.
- Clean Symbols - skip stray characters like asterisks so they are not spoken.
- Handles long texts - uninterrupted playback for articles, books, and reports.
- Generate audio from text - save it as an audio file and listen in any music app.
- Save as a text file - export your text to your device.

More

- Dark mode that follows your device theme.

Ratings and reviews

Edit: This app team seems to be on top of taking errors seriously because they fixed a pretty big flub within days. very encouraging, download with confidence! This app works consistently and I use it every day. Does not heat up my phone like speechify did and works while other apps are working/in the background unlike browser read aloud. Reads up to one hundred seconds of copy and pasted material without errors.

I've been using this app for a while, and it's become a staple in my daily life. But ever since the update, it's been skipping over words and qouted scentences. it's really annoying. the app before this update was completely fine edit: found that it's also skipping over all stops ( . ). update:it's all good now

Been using this app for some years now, and still no other apps compare. Just got the newest Update, I love how they have a Theme setting that make the app match the old basic theme. So many apps just delete the old layout when they update it, and its terrible for the long time users. also you can now pause the app while not in the app. Previously you have to open the app to pause, but this new way is so convenient! This app has come a long way from its OG form! So cool to see the changes!
