So the latest update (im writing this in late November ‘24) is terrible. Speechify now inexplicably skips words and mispronounces numbers constantly. It will occasionally skip entire sections of text for no discernible reason. This occurs even when going into text editing mode and ensuring there are no formatting errors. I like speechify, its highly useful to me as a student. However, I have to say that the service is ripe for competition. If anyone from speechify ever sees this, if you want to stay relevant, focus less on fancy Ai bells and whistles and more on ironing out your core functionality issues.
