Simply the BEST

This is simply one of the best AI voice apps out there. For reading stories, documents, and your own text, the voices are incredibly realistic and you don’t even have to pay, but if you want the best like I do then, of course you have to pay. It’s well worth the money and you’ll love it!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you are enjoying our AI voice app and finding the voices incredibly realistic. Your support means the world to us!

A few hilarious bugs but largely good

Guys, you gotta get it together with the way voices handle extra letters. Like “Buuuuuut” or “Nooooooooo” or “Sooo” result in the most hilarious tone and length of spoken sounds.

Also please create a rule that stops it mumbling completely random sounds when a new chapter starts with just a number or number written as a word. It sounds like another language but isn’t. Sometimes it even finishes the final sentence paragraph before a chapter where it says something like “EIGHT” followed by a character name on the next line in all caps as a subheading, then the body text for the chapter and it’ll go (joltingly loudly compared to the volume it’s been reading at) “AEEEAEEEAHHH” then make a whining sound for an obnoxiously long time then say the chapter number then whine a bit more then chop a part off the name, then start the paragraph and whine then go back to normal. It’d be comical if it wasn’t so disturbing.

These examples are happening in all versions of Archer voice which is the only British English or Irish voice I can find that talks in a normal way and doesn’t suddenly go quiet like it’s been shut in a closet every few paragraphs. (Otherwise my favourite would be Cillian). But it seems to happen in all voices after a while.

Both these things have been going on a month or two but I swear have gotten worse recently.

Also please more British English and Irish conversational / faster speaking natural sounding voices! As an Australian I can’t stomach American sounding voices and the rest of the world agrees when it comes to English they just sound better and more intelligent.

Eleven Reader

I have been utilizing this incredible app, also Eleven Labs! Both apps have continuously up-levelled with consistency, and when it came to handling any issues I have had, customer service has been stellar!

Thanks ElevenReader creators!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your kind words and support! We're thrilled to hear that you've been enjoying our app and the level of service provided. We truly appreciate your feedback!

Please keep the free plan

The app is fantastic and I will recommend it to all. Why? I had a lot of PDFs and ebooks and the app made an audiobook of them. But even more, the voice is very natural! And the best part is that now I can commute, drive, workout and listen to them. Thank you.

full of bugs

looks sleek on the surface but is actually quite buggy and somewhat difficult to navigate when scrolling thru blocks of text. it was worse prior to the update wherein a too-long slip of the finger would switch up which part of the text the audio reads. the narrators are obviously AI which has both its pros and cons; the pro being it sounds less robotic than the free text-to-speech apps i’ve used in the past and the con being inconsistent pronunciations of common names within the same passages. the narration also turns off erratically, even without setting a timer. you have to manually return to the app sometimes to get the narration going again. the audio follows the text until a certain point and you have to click a bunch of random buttons to exit and re-enter a file so you can see which part the narration is reading off from.
