    Thank you for your valuable feedback! We appreciate your input and are excited to share that we are currently working on adding the background text-to-speech functionality. Stay tuned for updates—we hope to launch this feature in the coming months!

  • Getting better

    Voice Dream Reader is planning on removing lifetime licensing for users who have previously purchased the product on 5/1. It’s even more important that this app continues to be improved for the influx of users that aren’t willing to pay a yearly subscription on top of their Bookshare subscription, just to read a book. My two big asks/requests: Please add the ability to listen to human narrated audiobooks and ability to “Read Now” on periodicals. Thanks Bookshare Reader dev team!

    Also: Ability to listen to books in the background. VoiceOver gestures to change pages would also be nice.

    Thank you for your detailed feedback, we really appreciate it ! We are currently working on the ability for text-to-speech to work in the background so that users can listen to books in the background. We have taken note of your other feedback, thank you. Please check back for a future update including the background text-to-speech feature!

  • Background Play

    This app is much better than it was at launch, but it still lacks a feature I think a lot of people would appreciate. When you play a book and leave the app by either returning to your home screen or locking the screen, the book stops playing. I would like playback to continue once the screen is locked, and I'm sure I'm not alone in that. I believe that's one of the reasons people are so hesitant to switch to it fulltime.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are currently working on the ability for text-to-speech to work in the background so that you can keep listening to a book even if you return to the home screen or lock screen. Please check back for a future update including this feature !
