## What is Easy Read Aloud?

The text you enter will be read aloud. You can read aloud by changing the reading speed and pitch of the voice, or repeat and read aloud many times. It can be read aloud in the background, so it's great for listening to long sentences with earphones.

[Voice]
There are several languages to choose from for spoken voice. (* Voice can be selected from the voices prepared on the device.)

[Operation]
You can read it with a simple operation like a music player. You can repeat it and read it again and again. In addition, the device's notification center, control center, and earphones can be operated with remote control buttons, so it can be used in various situations.

[Document management]
You can manage files like a text editor. You can save as many sentences as you type. Then, you can open and read the saved text.

* Voice will be selected from the voices prepared in the device.
* Voice can be managed in "Accessibility > Spoken content > Voices" of the device's Settings app.
* File management can also be done with the Files app on the device.

### 4/5 — 使いやすい

*2025-01-06, version 1.1.1*

とても使いやすいです！
文字数制限もなくありがたいです。
漢字の読み方が違う時はどのように修正できますか？
わからずに、カタカナやふりがなで再入力して読み上げてもらってますが、視覚的には漢字のままが良いです。

### 3/5 — 途中で切れる

*2024-12-14, version 1.1.1*

非常に使いやすいアプリだとは思いますが、変な単語でもないのに同じところで止まってそこから進めなくなりました。

### 5/5 — 期待以上

*2023-03-17, version 1.1.1*

漢字をしっかり読む能力が期待以上でした！
びっくりしました。
留守電に使用しようと思っています。
シンプルで使いやすかったです。

### 2/5 — 鍵かっこで止まらないのが残念

*2023-03-04, version 1.1.1*

「たとえばこんな感じに」
「別のセリフが並ぶと」
「一つの文章として読み上げるためわかりづらいです」
最後に句読点があると止まります。

### 4/5 — 無料のクオリティではない程流暢に喋る

*2022-02-07, version 1.1.1*

スマホアプリの中では非常に人間らしく話してくれるとても良いアプリだと思います！
なので、商用利用したいと思ったのですが書かれていないので出来るかどうか教えていただけると嬉しいです！

### 5/5 — 有料ソフト並の品質

*2021-08-24, version 1.1.0*

Wikipediaの読み上げに使わせていただいています。     

★長文も読み上げてくれるので助かります。 
★読み上げ途中にスリープで画面が消えても音が流れるので助かります 
★読み上げ箇所が光るので有り難いです 。 

 有料ソフト並の品質で満足しています。

### 5/5 — 文句なし(´˘`＊)

*2020-12-03, version 1.0.0*

一度作ったファイルは二度と消せない？
テスト勉強に重宝してますが、終わったテスト範囲のファイルデータは消して整理したいです。

検討お願いします。

ーーーー

と思ったら、設定 → 一般 → ストレージ
アプリ削除のところで下にスクロールすると書類の削除と出てきました。
ファイルの整理はちょっと面倒だけど、無料にしてはとても良いアプリだと思います！

### 5/5 — 大変便利なアプリ

*2020-10-06, version 1.0.0*

wavまたはmp3での書き出し機能の対応を希望します！

### 5/5 — 留守番電話のメッセージ用

*2020-07-01, version 1.0.0*

色んな読み上げアプリを使いましたが、どれも機械的で使えず。
これで最後とこちらのアプリを使ってみて、最初はやっぱり同じかぁ、とがっかりしましたが、ふとボイスを変えられる事に気付き、KyokoからO-renに変えたらスムーズな読み上げで感動しました！
所々イントネーションが？となるところもありますが、ほぼ人が話してるのと同じです。
会社の留守番電話のメッセージも完璧になりました！

### 5/5 — とてもいいです。

*2020-06-26, version 1.0.0*

メニューの【保存】がグレー表示になっていてタップできませんが、これはwavかmp3で書き出せるようなものでしょうか。それだと是非とも実装お願いしたいですm(_ _)m
