8 of 25I've had no problem having it read my own e-books. I don't know why other people were having so many issues, perhaps I'm just lucky. The voice synthesis is not as good as Siri, but I can't be bothered doing that silly select text trick to make her read through the accessibility menu. If there is a picture of a page or any artwork in the e-book then it will not read that part and the voiceover will stop. You'll have to start again manually on the next page. However the bookmarks function is quite handy and works well. Additional languages and voices are really overpriced, they cost as much as the app does. All in all it's what I wanted - an app to make my eBooks audiobooks for my daily commute.
I use this app to read pdf files. I like it but... Please, please give it landscape mode. 99% of the apps I use are in landscape mode and can switch to other mode. This is a must have! Please allow access to the voices and pronunciations already set on iPad settings. I use it a lot and have spent a lot of time to refine the pronunciations. Now your app wants to users own. Wouldn’t it be easier to tie into what’s already set on the iPad? Thanks.
This app has an extremely limited selection. It takes too long to get through a page, and the speaking is chopped
The fact it does not work, can't use it since it closes on phone lock and it will NOT remember the last page read, don't buy it
After the update the reading has improved slightly but is still too fast. Please restore to the May version or add the capacity to let users adjusting the speed. Now it is simply not listenable.
Where are the 30,000 books. I have 50, maybe.
I really love this app. The voice synthesis could be a little better but, it's still a really good app. I look forward to the improvements in future updates.
$4.99 for just the app.... & separate purchase if you want it to actually read to you.... English must be purchased $4.99 and all other languages are separate charges.. Run your business right then maybe you'll get some business. This should be the best out there...will be calling apple for this fraud business and get my money back...
