Ratings and reviews

First and foremost, the text-to-speech is amazing! Almost as good as professional voice actors. Be aware that the app does not do on-device TTS. Your document is uploaded to their servers and the audio is downloaded bit by bit as you read, so no offline reading. Cannot read some epub files past the table of contents. Navigating book needs work as flipping pages or jumping to chapters isn't working.

ElevenLabs' voice models are clearly dominant in the field of synthetic voices. They provide an excellent service, very generously. My question is whether this app is compatible with Android emulators, such as BlueStacks, so that the reader app may be used on a larger screen like a computer's? I know screen mirroring software may work, but I ask specifically of emulator compatibility. Thank you.

This is the future. It's almost perfect. Occasionally the narrator will mispronounce a word or add something not in the story, but it's superb. If they can combine this with something like Chat Gpt so the narrator knows and understands what they're saying. Still, this is incredible. It's a bit unusual that the narrator will say "umm" instead of a course word, but I imagine they have their reasons.
