## What is Auto?

Auto-Reader reads your books, PDFs, comics and manga aloud in a natural, on-device voice so you can "read" while your hands are busy driving, walking, at the gym, or commuting. Check-out the deep-voice number 10

WHY AUTO-READER
• Hear any of your books while your hands are busy or commuting and utilize that time. By hearing book in most natural voice on-device. As our devices have gotten a lot smarter and faster.
• Hands-free manga: it narrates panel by panel, in reading order, zooming as it goes
• 31 languages, with on-device translation
• Private by default — works offline, no account, your books never leave your phone
• Lifelike text-to-speech that runs entirely on your device
• Opens EPUB, PDF, comics (CBZ) and manga — no converting

A LIBRARY TO START FROM — FREE AND BUILT IN
Browse 200+ free classics and open-licensed books by shelf and add them in a tap — no account, no card. Every one narrates aloud.

MADE FOR HOW YOU READ
• Follow the highlighted line as it's read
• Pick from real, distinct voices — male and female, per language
• Adjust speed on the fly; instant page turns while listening
• Snap a photo of a page and have it read back to you
• Pick up exactly where you left off, across your whole library
• Back up your library and restore it on another device

Optional cloud AI features are available if you want them — the app is fully usable without any of them, and nothing is sent anywhere unless you turn them on and ask.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3.5 — 2026-09-28

A voice of its own for Arabic and a calmer read everywhere else.

• Nabra reads Modern Standard Arabic in a natural voice and fills in the missing diacritics as it goes. Text that already carries them is read exactly as written. It is a one-time download, offered the first time you listen in Arabic.
• Pick a language while you are listening and the passage restarts in it straight away, instead of changing only at the next paragraph.
• When a language pack is missing, the app names it and fetches it in one tap.
• Pages turn in the middle of a paragraph, so a long paragraph no longer holds the page back while you listen.
• Voice previews are ready before you tap them, so changing voice or language is quick.
• Sepia Parchment is the new default, and every theme is free for your first two weeks. Tap a locked one to try it on before you decide.
• Quiet Dusk is rebuilt in green marble with gold, and night reading on the light themes is properly readable again.
• The interface now reads in Lora, a typeface made for long reading.

### 1.3.3 — 2026-09-13

Premium added.

### 1.3.2 — 2026-09-04

• Snap a photo of any page and have it read aloud — or add any picture from your library, including iPhone photos — 
• Back up your whole library and restore it on another device
• Sharper reading of titles and logos on covers and posters, with AI clean-up of misread words
