## What is أسفار?

# Asfar — Snap to Audiobook

Asfar turns any book into an audiobook — yours, in your language.

Photograph the pages of a book in your hands, import a PDF you already have, and Asfar does the rest: high-quality OCR, professional translation, and natural narration that reads the page aloud sentence by sentence.

## What you get

- **Photograph any page** with the built-in scanner — auto edge detection, perspective correction, color / grayscale / B&W filters.
- **Import any PDF** — every page becomes a translatable, listenable page in your library.
- **Translate** between Arabic and English with one tap.
- **Listen** with natural narration — 30 voices to pick from, sentence-by-sentence highlighting as it reads.
- **Read in two beautiful styles** — clean Paper, or warm Book mode with serif type, drop caps, and justified text.
- **Swipe to flip pages.** Lock-screen controls work everywhere.

## Designed for

- **Arabic learners** — read English books in Arabic, or hear English narration of Arabic texts.
- **Anyone with low vision** — turn any book into clear audio with rate control and sentence highlighting.
- **Multitaskers** — listen while walking, driving, or doing chores.
- **Students and researchers** — capture textbook pages, hear them aloud, follow along visually.
- **Anyone with a stack of physical books** they want to revisit on the go.

## Intelligent translation

Asfar uses **page-aware translation**: each new page gets context from the previous pages so chapter continuity is preserved. Mid-sentence breaks across pages are handled gracefully. Equations, tables, and figures are described naturally so they make sense when spoken.

## Transcription mode

If you just want the original language read aloud as-is, set source = output language and Asfar switches to faithful transcription — perfect for hearing a printed Arabic text exactly as written.

## Customize

- 30 character voices — *calm, bright, warm, gravelly, breezy, lively.*
- Playback speed `0.75×` to `2×`.
- Sleep timer.
- Light, dark, and sepia reading backgrounds.
- Choose any photo or captured page as your book's cover.

## Privacy

Your photos are uploaded only when you choose to translate or narrate them, tied to your account. We don't sell or share data.
