Ratings and reviews

Amazing app idea that will improve the lives of so many academics. Edit: For mobile you can't upload pdfs directly, only links. Tried it with two open-access Elsevier articles (so no paywall issues). Neither DOI, nor sciencedirect, nor the elsevier reader link worked. However, uploading the PDF through the Web app works and the Audio produced is very cool. Some improvement can still be made, e.g. I don't want the citation numbers read. App still feels very beta, but has so much potential!

I always have stacks of papers I want to get through, and it's been so nice to finally find an app that allows me to listen to them on the go with a naturalistic voice. Would recommend!

This app appears to be a scam. I can't get it to read any papers, and I can't cancel my account. I feel foolish for being duped but I just really really wanted an app that did all that the things this app promised (but didn't deliver)
