About
Read more with Readbird. Drop in a link, a PDF, or anything with text, and Readbird reads it to you, right on your iPhone. It keeps working on flights, trains, subway tunnels and trails, because the voices run on your phone, not in the cloud.
No account. No ads. No gimmicks. Just press play.
WORKS OFFLINE
• Voices download once, then everything plays with no signal
• Built for travel: airplane mode, tunnels, road trips, the backcountry
• Add your links while you're connected; PDFs, scans and pasted text work anywhere
DROP IT IN

What's New in Readbird
1.0.1
October 30, 2026
Smoother listening: speech no longer stops mid-word, playback picks up right away when you switch to AirPods or CarPlay, and a voice download that gets interrupted now finishes instead of breaking. PDFs keep their paragraphs and headings, and adding a link no longer asks to paste.
