About this app

WebReader turns web pages into a simple listen-anywhere experience.

Paste a URL and WebReader extracts the main content, removes clutter, and reads it aloud with smooth text-to-speech playback. It is designed for people who want to listen to articles, blog posts, stories, and other long-form web content while commuting, walking, working, or resting their eyes.

Why users choose WebReader:
• Read web pages aloud from a URL
• Clean text extraction that focuses on the main article
• Natural background listening with lock screen and notification controls
• Adjustable playback speed from 0.5x to 2.0x
• Resume from saved progress on supported pages
• Automatic next-page detection for multi-page reading flows
• Reading history stored on device for quick access
• Simple interface built for distraction-free listening

WebReader works well for:
• Listening to online articles instead of reading on screen
• Following blogs and serialized web content hands-free
• Catching up on long pages while multitasking
• Making web content easier to consume on the go

Privacy and data:
• Reading history and playback progress are stored locally on your device
• Privacy Policy is available inside the app
• Ads and analytics may be used to support development and improve stability

If you want a lightweight web page reader with text-to-speech, background playback, and quick URL-based listening, WebReader gives you a faster way to keep up with the content you care about.
