## What is Audia?

Listen to the books you already own, read aloud in natural, hyperrealistic neural voices. 100% offline, no subscription: import your own EPUB, PDF, MOBI or web articles and Audia narrates them on your device.

For people with their own library who want to choose what to hear and when — no rented catalog, no paying extra for the good titles. You pick the book; if you're too busy to listen for a month, you pay nothing. Also built for dyslexia, ADHD, tired eyes, commutes and language learning.

WHY AUDIA IS DIFFERENT

* 100% Private and Offline: Runs completely on your iPhone or iPad using on-device neural models. Your documents, books, and reading habits never leave your device.
* No Subscriptions, Buy Once: Stop paying yearly fees for reading apps. Pay once and unlock your full library forever.
* Natural Neural Voices: Powered by advanced on-device engines delivering rich, distinctive voices across 31 supported languages.

DESIGNED FOR IMMERSIVE READING AND STUDY

* Shake to Resume: Sleep timer ran out while listening in bed? Just shake your phone gently to extend playback without turning on bright screens.
* Full-Book Text Search: Instantly locate any scene, quote, or key topic across the entire text and jump straight to the audio narration.
