## What is Oplæs?

Oplæs reads your text aloud in natural voices and highlights each word as you follow along. Free, no account, no ads – and all reading happens on your iPhone.

LISTEN TO ANYTHING
• PDFs, reports and course packs – scanned pages too
• Articles from the web: tap Share in Safari and choose Oplæs
• ePub books, text you paste and paper you photograph
• Headers, page numbers, footnote numbers and web addresses are skipped

FOLLOW ALONG WORD BY WORD
• Each word lights up yellow, in time with the voice
• Tap a sentence to read from there
• Skip a sentence forward or back, or jump to a chapter
• Large, calm type that’s easy to read – made for dyslexia, good for everyone

VOICES THAT SOUND HUMAN
• Natural English and Danish voices
• Mic and Nic: natural Danish voices from the CoRal project, recorded by Nota
• Numbers, dates and abbreviations are read correctly
• Oplæs listens to its own reading to make sure every word is said

WHEREVER YOU ARE
• 0.5× to 3× speed
• Listen with the screen locked, on AirPods or in the car
• Sleep timer and Lock Screen controls
• Oplæs remembers where you left off

YOUR TEXT IS YOURS
The voices are downloaded once and then run on your iPhone. No account, no server reading along, no tracking. That’s also why Oplæs is free.
