About this app

@Voice Aloud Reader turns text into spoken audio. It reads PDFs, eBooks, web pages, documents, and pasted text in dozens of languages. Whether you are commuting, exercising, cooking, or resting your eyes, @Voice keeps you learning and reading hands-free.

Read almost anything aloud
Open PDFs, EPUB and AZW3 eBooks, Word documents, HTML files, and plain text. Browse the web with the built-in reader, which removes ads and clutter so you hear the article, not the page. Share a link or text from any app and @Voice will read it or save it for later. Legally open and read eBooks protected with LCP DRM technology, including titles from ebooks.com.

Desktop to phone with @Voice Connector
Install the free browser extension for Chrome, Edge, Brave, or Firefox. Send any web page or selected text to your phone for instant listening, or queue it for later. Reader Mode cleans the page before upload.

Translate and learn languages
Translate articles and pages with Google Translate support, then listen in the target language. The bilingual view shows original and translated text together, with a separate voice for each language. Listen to both languages sentence by sentence, or use Back and Forward to choose which language is spoken.

Dialog voices for books and stories
Assign different voices to narrators and characters so books sound more like audiobooks. The dialog-detection wizard analyzes quote styles and sets up alternating voices automatically. Save named voice groups and adjust engine, rate, pitch, and volume per character.

AI assistant and reference tools
Send the text you are reading to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and similar tools with a saved prompt for summaries or Q&A. Look up words in a dictionary, Google Translate, Wikipedia, or web search without leaving the reading view.

Record text to speech as audio files
Record what @Voice reads aloud and save it as MP3, OGG, or WAV. Great for creating audio versions of notes, articles, or study material you want to keep offline.

Accessibility and reading support
Includes the OpenDyslexic font, high-contrast and custom color themes, adjustable font size, word and sentence highlighting, and TalkBack support. PDF text extraction and OCR-aware reading make scanned documents listenable.

Comfortable, flexible listening
Set a sleep timer and restart it by shaking your phone. Use headset and Bluetooth buttons to play, pause, skip, or drop bookmarks without looking at the screen. Add extra pauses between sentences or articles.

Organize your reading
Create reading lists for news, books, study, and work. Track progress per item and auto-advance to the next article. Import batches of links, sync files from Dropbox, or follow multi-part web fiction automatically.

Great voices without a subscription
Unlike apps that lock quality voices behind monthly plans, @Voice works with the free TTS voices already on your device, including Google TTS and Samsung TTS. Want more options? Install additional voice engines from Google Play. For premium AI cloud voices, bring your own API key from Google Cloud, Microsoft, or Amazon and pay only for what you use. Fine-tune speech rate, pitch, and volume. Create custom pronunciation rules so names, abbreviations, and technical terms are spoken correctly, and sync your rules across devices.

Reading, studying, and listening in one app
With text-to-speech, translation, bilingual reading, AI lookups, audio recording, and bookmark management, @Voice is a complete listening tool for people who read a lot and want to do it by ear.

Immersive reading
For improved concentration, read along on screen or with a printed copy while @Voice reads aloud. On screen, it highlights the spoken sentence or word. Many people find this read-and-listen method feels like watching a movie with subtitles.

No account required. No subscription. No data collection. A one-time Premium purchase removes ads and unlocks a home-screen widget and direct web-link handling.

Ratings and reviews

It's exactly what it needs to be, and about as good as can be expected from a free mobile app. The UI takes a bit to understand, but the tutorials make it easy to figure out. The parsing isn't perfect for PDFs, but generally not so much that I can't understand it (at least for anything that I can listen to rather than reading myself). I use the free tts, which is not ideal but good enough. Most importantly, I have read multiple books that I wouldn't have otherwise.

I absolutely adore this app. It is everything to me. It's reliable, customizable, and well-formatted. It may well be my most-used app, as I enjoy listening to stories in the background as I go about my day. :) Not my main use, but it's also been invaluable as an essay proof-reading tool! When listening, it's easier to catch mistakes eyes would skip over. I love you, @Voice: Text to Speech Reader. <3 :)

This app literally changed my life. Honestly, there's no other app that's as free and as simple as Little. Like, per chapter, it only depends on how long the chapters are only like a single ad per chapter that's barely any, and they're not long ads and the voices aren't robotic. Thank you for making this app. Love it! Don't stop updating
