About this app

Have your books, PDFs, documents, and more read aloud to you by 140+ AI-powered voices in over 25 different languages/dialects!

NaturalReader is a mobile app that can read aloud a variety of texts like PDFs, online articles, cloud documents, even images taken by your camera and so many more.

With over 1 million monthly users and over 15 years of experience dedicated to AI technology that improves the user’s experience, we are one of the most trusted text-to-speech brands today.

Our app has innovative features like the ability to convert and download text into MP3 files, OCR text recognition for PDFs and our camera scanner.

NaturalReader is also an essential reading tool for those with dyslexia and other reading difficulties. By presenting the text both audibly and visually, readers can focus less on the act of reading, and more on the content they are reading. We also offer a dyslexia-friendly font for closed captions and within our text box.

HOW IT WORKS:
Just like a podcast or audiobook, our app lets you be productive anywhere with your mobile device. Complete readings laying in bed, during your daily commute, or walking around campus. By listening on the go, you create more time to do what you love.

Listening to our app couldn’t be easier! Simply choose the document type you wish to upload, select your desired file, and you are ready to start listening. For the best experience, remember to choose your favourite speaker’s voice and optimal listening speed.

Here are just a few of the reasons why our 1,000,000 monthly users love using NaturalReader

-- Camera Scanner: Listen to physical books and notes by using your mobile camera. Convert any piece of physical text into audio, which reads aloud to you. Just take a picture of the pages you wish to upload and you’re ready to start listening.

-- Natural Voices: Enjoy over 130+ AI-powered Voices across 20+ Languages/Dialects to choose from, including our plus voices, the newest and highest technology of AI voices.
Plus voices enable fluid, natural-sounding text to speech that matches the patterns and intonation of human voices. Plus voices are available through our Plus Subscription plan.

-- AI Text Filtering: Choose to filter out distracting and unwanted text such as URLs and text within brackets. Our advanced AI technology will detect these types of text and ignore them, limiting any distractions.

-- Customizable Experience: We have loaded our app with features built to create the most natural listening experience for our users. Choose your preferred speaker voice and optimal reading speed for the best experience.
Other features ways to customize include a dark mode, word highlight, closed captions and an advanced pronunciation editor for new or unusual words, or to improve the readability of acronyms.

Its really useful, I use it for pdfs of old books or online books that have no audio book, so I can listen while I clean at work. It skips and stops playing a lot sometimes, which can be frustrating if your headphones don't have play/pause buttons to fix it quickly. The subscription price for smoother voices isn't worth it for me honestly, but if you could purchase one premium voice at a time for a one-time price, I would definitely buy a few over time.

Update: some issues remaining with the app that discourage me from purchasing the paid version: 1) app stops reading when other applications that use sound are used, and I have to go back into the app to start it again. 2) on some occasions going back into the app re launches it and I have to reopen the doc I was listening to. It does resume playing at the correct point in the doc, though! 3) there's no widget to pause/resume playing yet. Waiting to see if these are fixed before paying for it.

A neat idea, but 1) I'm constantly prompted to log in but then it just returns me to the login screen, 2) the custom pronunciation only works sporadically, 3) battery optimization is off, but NR stops unless it's in the foreground, 4) bookmark feature is cumbersome (2 screens), 5) where do the mp3 downloads go? and 6) it could be smarter about parsing PDF documents that have things where the space between letters is larger (spells them). Too many user experience issues for a paid app.
