User reviews

Very good, but can be great

It’s a big help when I am reading something, or when I am doing some things like chores or when I’m on my job, especially for my kid. It’s a bummer that some voices are gone with no warning, and sometimes when the app is reading a file, it sometimes spells out the word (when capitalized) instead of reading it normally, it’s a little annoying and removes me from immersion, but it’s a deal breaker.

Be careful

Bad, you will be charge several months after cancelling, no chat or help in app

why I gave this app a one star

It’s because I picked Snoop Dogg in it red in a woman voice

Facture pdf

J’aimerais recevoir ma facture par la mâle . Je déteste ce service

Not as Advertised.

I paid for the library. The script I wanted to listen to is not available. I scanned the entire script. It will only read a page at a time, and when I asked for help, the AI said it had compiled it into a complete readable document, but it starts in the latter third of the piece.
