✓ Export text to WAV audio files and text files. Rename/Delete & Play files from within the app.

NEW! - OCR technology!
So you can copy any text, and have it read to you, great!! but what about text in images, or text on a piece of paper? now PRO users can have the app read everything. The app uses Google's new vision API Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology [which currently only reads Latin character text (e.g. English, Spanish, German, French, etc.)] to accomplish this. Best results are obtained with images (since bad camera focus & shaky hands don't play a part), cropping the image will make sure you only get the text you want without any background "Junk".

NOTE! You must have a Text to Speech engine installed on your device for the app to work. If you don't have a TTS engine, you can easily find and download one on google play. Some languages will only work with specific engines.

I think it's great that you can paste long texts and there's voice control. My only deal breaker for this app is that the reader is too slow. Despite the 2.0 speed, it is still too slow for me. I will change rating if reader becomes faster. Thanks! -Edit Hi, thanks for the fast response! I'm not sure but maybe the highest could be 3.0 speed? I will try to test right away when it's updated. -Hi! Thanks for considering my request! Changing it to 5 stars

A vital part of any new phone I get. It's something I use daily. Only gripes Wish it would read really long text. It often stops midway and I have to go to the app to reset it. Otherwise great app. Ps I only use the click and hold ok text > read aloud feature while in other apps

Good app but skips the text in hindi between *...* ,bug & error in this app is that forcefuly add esterics *..* In hindi before and after the letter. It fails in reading # & bracket( ). Please set history for frequently searched language or set pin 📌 option so that our favourite language can be found on tab easily & without scrolling typing for saving of time. Audio doesn't export for long text. Unexpectedly stops
