About Orient Reader: Read Aloud
Every book, an audiobook. Read aloud any book you own. Orient Reader turns your EPUB, PDF and ebooks into an audiobook with natural text to speech, and lights each word as it is spoken. It is made for people who love to listen, and for the books that never got an audiobook: the classic nobody narrated, the novel in your second language, the PDF a friend sent you. BEAUTIFUL TO FOLLOW • Each word lights up in time with the voice, so you never lose your place • Follow along on the page, or put the phone away and just listen • Four reading themes: Paper, Sepia, Dark and Midnight, or follow your phone YOUR BOOKS, YOUR VOICE • Reads EPUB, MOBI, PDF, plain text and Markdown, or anything you paste in • Natural AI voices in dozens of languages; hear a sample before you choose • Downloadable voices read offline, with no internet at all • The text to speech (TTS) voices already on your phone work too • No account, no sign-up. Your library lives on your phone MADE FOR LONG LISTENING • Plays with the screen off, with controls on the lock screen • Sleep timer by the minute, or at the end of the chapter • Speed from 0.5× to 2.5× • Opens where you stopped, with chapters and bookmarks • Car mode: four controls, each big enough for a glance • Audio it has already made is kept, so hearing a chapter again needs no connection HOW PEOPLE USE IT • Listen to an EPUB or PDF book on a walk, in the car or in bed • Hear a book read aloud in the language you are learning, and follow every word • Give tired eyes a rest, or let text to speech make reading easier with dyslexia • Turn a long PDF from work or school into something you can listen to Books in many languages, each read aloud in its own language. The app itself speaks English, Polish, German, Spanish and Korean, and follows your phone's language. A quiet app: no ads, no streaks, no noise. Open a book, press play, and hear it read aloud.
