Leave a Review vBookz PDF Voice Reader
Great App
Voices are the most natural I have tried. Would be great to have an option to correct or override the how the voice reads eg. Initials or technical words, or to not try to read certain characters eg. ..... In a content page.
Great app for listening while stuck in trafficWazzaC
An excellent application. Practical and useful.
I use this application for my study almost every day and it does everything I need (it to do). I have uploaded large amounts of text, and, if there is a limit, I have not reached it. Thank you. Thank you.D.S. in Aus
There are a lot of bugs
If they hammer out the bugs it will be a great programme.petrinaa
Disappointing
I had high hopes for this app, but I have been let down. First, the simulated voices available still sound like computer synthesized speech that was available in the late 90's. This makes it nearly impossible to look away while listening, because it sounds too computerized and foreign. The cadence of the app's reading speed is herky jerky and doesn't maintain a steady pace. The program reads everything from cover to cover, including page numbers. There should be more options as to what is read and what is skipped, say text within parentheses, covers, page numbers, etc. The test that is used is also misleading as the words were probably very carefully selected to ensure that it sounded decent. I knew then that I would have issues with the voice, but thought with purchase there would be options for different voices. The voice available so badly butcher's more complex pronunciations that it just isn't worth having. Hopefully, some upgrades will fix the issues, because the concept is a great one! I do like the bookshelf and music options, but other than that, this app can only hope for improvements in the future that will help it reach it's potential.Show lessKusery
unreliable

Really useful.
Really loving this app. As a student with lots of texts to read, it is great to be able to listen to them as I drive.
Really easy to use also.
Keep working on it!Sabrestyle
Great for Me
I love this App. I'm a law student and responsible for reading way too much information and this app allows me to have it read to me while I drive, or do anything else that requires my hands. The only thing that could make it better is the ability to touch a place on a page instead of having to start from the very top. If the document doesn't load, sometimes its there, but I can't see it.. I a search or refresh and it will show up for me.Show lessmothersday
wonderful app!!!
I bought the paid app. Well, after it was working fine, one day I couldn't get it to play sound because the physical mute button was on, bit I didn't know that was the problem, since Pandora was working, and I thought that button only controlled the ringer and text sounds, but it actually also controls the sound on this PDF ebook reader. Their technical support team got back to my inquiry same day to help me fix it so it would work again! How cool is that! Thanks for creating this app. I love it!!!
True the free version will not play your own books unless you pay $5 for a voice but the thing is, you can try it out with their pre-installed books (like Ths US Constitution) and see if its worth buying. It totally is. It's awesome!!!Show lessLuckyShe-Dragon
Hmmmmmm
Well, for starters my app is not even reading anything.....it just bounces over the text in the box and speaks nothing.....this is included in the example pdf that come with it. I thought if i updated Itunes on lappy and phone it would work but to no avail, i cant seam to find anything to adjust volume and no faq on it....faq does appead to be a good word for this situation right now !
Well it helps to take it off silent.....trap for young playersShow lessPreying_on_Innocents
Garbage but what choice do you have
This is a paid app that reads PDFs for you. As far as the sound quality goes it works pretty well. Besides that this app doesn't do anything well. There are no bookmarks, it will not play sound with the screen off, it will not output the sound through the data port and you just don't know where you can touch it without it changing the page.
I really wish there was a better way to have content read to me while I ride the bus (I get a little motion sick when I read on the bus) but I sadly couldn't find anything better.Show lessNeocarbunkle
