Bed speech app on the market and I've tried them all

Legend for making this app. So customizable to fit anyone's needs and the price is crazy value for money. Thank you! One improvement would be the ability to add ‘open original’ to the bar at the bottom for ease of access, and the play functions when the original pdf is open.

Best free speech app

I came to this app after using a different app with a ridiculously priced subscription fee (naming no names) This app is pretty much on the same level reading wise and though it has less voices it honestly doesn’t matter in the function of the app. I think the only thing I miss is the search and replace all function when editing the text, which was useful to replace word pronunciations that are wrong. I love the sleep timer meaning I don’t leave it playing all night. Also has adjustable text fonts and sizes and highlighting colours. Thank you for making this app.

No longer working after update

It was one of my favourite apps prior to the most recent update but now clicking share on a website does not add it to books and articles and I haven’t been able to listen to anything at all.

Skips chunks of text. Avoid

Consistently *skips* text as it reads, making the app pretty much useless. Sad.

Be careful with the archive!

On the whole I love this app, I have it on all my devices, but the functionality is best on the iPad. The major issue is the archive, I accidentally swiped my document into the archive, brought it straight back but lost all my bookmarks and annotations which means I have to listen to the whole book again. If you could fix that it would be the perfect app.

Slow voice reading

This app used to be very good but after an update around this year I think on February, there tends to be a few seconds delay in the voice reading which in the past was never there. I have asked what the issue is they says it might be due to my iOS update which I can’t do anything about and they haven’t given me a reply after that.

Cheaper and better than Speechify

A.though, probs would benefit from a few more functions!

Fine

Update: I still have a problem with the text being read not being highlighted sometimes. And also moving the screen will sometimes pause the audio along with other actions such as exiting the app. My main issue is the app isn’t designed for large paragraphs, the screen will not be following what is being said during a large paragraph so it has to be manually moved, and pausing the audio and resuming it will take the screen back to the top of the large paragraph despite text being read halfway through the paragraph. It would also be nice if text could be read from any point, not just from the start of a paragraph, so to resume from a point in the middle of a paragraph I have to start at the beginning and skip ahead until I’m about at the same point.

Best free one I’ve found

This app has the smoothest voice I could find. Great free app. Thank you

Best of the free ones, for me.

I looked at quite a few free apps and this is definitely my favourite. Easy to use and does the job pretty well. Obviously the voice is robotic in tone, but they all are. None of them are perfect, but I much preferred this to the others.
