What's New in ReadAloud

1.8.5

October 10, 2026

ReadAloud 1.8.5 is easier to read at any text size and works better on iPhone Duo. • At larger text sizes, Read, the player, the subscription screen, Settings and Quick Read no longer cut off text or break words — they rearrange to give your text room • iPhone Duo outer display: the player's side bar goes straight to Read, Library and Settings and highlights where you are; in landscape, the Library keeps its mini player • Unfolding a Duo opens Settings on its first page instead of “Select a setting”, and the half-folded tabletop posture has the Reading / Original switch • On Duo, the subscription screen and the notes sheet are laid out better, with the Close button fixed at the top of the side bar • Import and export progress screens now keep VoiceOver focus inside them • If a “Voice Unavailable” retry fails again, you see the alert again instead of nothing happening • If deleting a book fails, the player stays open on that book instead of closing

A Subfolder Setup would be nice, good app

A Subfolder Setup would be nice, good app though. I wish I could come across an app that would allow me to thoroughly catergorize book series by folder and subfolder so the subfolder can handle the chapters while the first folder mentions which series it is. The reading of the narration voice is the best. A few slight typo pronunciation errors thanks to slight unclesr scanning and it would be nice to have an option where page numbers at the bottom of the page were able to be toggled off and on. I like hearing the page numbers it reminds where I am in the books audio recording.

Response from developer

Thank you for the detailed feedback! I’m really glad you’re enjoying the narration voice. Your idea for organizing a series with folders and subfolders makes a lot of sense — for example, using the main folder for the series, subfolders for individual books, and keeping the chapters inside them. I’m planning to add subfolder support in the next update. I also really like your suggestion about page numbers. I’m adding an option to control whether page numbers are spoken during narration, so readers who use them to keep track of their place can leave them on, while others can skip them. You’re also right that unclear scans can occasionally introduce OCR typos, which can then affect pronunciation. I’ll continue working on improving how scanned documents are handled. Thanks again for taking the time to explain how you use ReadAloud — feedback like this is extremely helpful.
