User reviews

Great ideas!

I like where they’re going with this but I really don’t like the heavy implementation of ai in the app. It just feels lazy. I hope in the future these elements are replaced with non-ai elements that support creators. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt for now since it’s a new app and was pushed fairly quick.

Response from developer

Thank you for the honest review, and for giving us the benefit of the doubt. A lot of listeners share your concern, and so do we. On Crit Audio, human narration comes first. AI narration only lets a book be heard while the author arranges a human narrator, and once a human recording is published, the AI version comes off sale. Every AI voice we use comes from a real voice actor who agreed to share it and is paid when it’s used. We never clone or imitate a narrator. Every AI title is labeled “AI Voice” before you buy, and you can hide AI narration completely in Settings with “Hide AI narration.” If a specific part of the app felt like too much AI, we’d love to hear about it at support@crit.audio.

New Audio Platfrom

I really appreciate how easy it is to navigate the app. It is still a very new app but it shows great promise.

Response from developer

Thank you so much! We’re glad the app feels easy to get around, since we put a lot of care into that. We’re adding new books and features all the time, so there’s more on the way. If there’s anything you’d like to see, tell us at support@crit.audio. Happy listening!
