Great tool for Film/TV work and ADHD
Terrible
Response from developer
I'm so sorry to hear that. It sounds like Talking Scripts wasn’t delivering what you were hoping for, and that is frustrating. We recently launched our new Voices+ voices, which are a significant upgrade from our original voices Apple voices, but we know that voice quality is incredibly subjective and not everyone will have the same reaction to them. That said, the Premium tiers should absolutely sound different from the standard voices. If you’re hearing exactly the same voices after upgrading, there may be an issue with your account or the voice settings. We’re a small team and we’re working hard to improve the voices with every release. If you’d be willing to contact us at contact@talkingscripts.com, we’d love to investigate what happened and hear more about your experience. Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback. – Stefan, Founder

The latest update fixes the crash that affected you. If you could update everything should be working even better than expected. We highly value our Premium members and really hope you enjoy the new UI which is proving to be more intuitive and functional, Please forgive this bump in the road and except our apologies for the inconvenience, from the Talking Scripts team.
Stopped working since update
Mind you I'm a paid subscriber... how do I go about getting my refund?
Response from developer
We are so sorry about this issue. It affected a small number of users and we are working day and night to sort out. We have now fixed the issue. Please except our apologies for the bump in the road. We really hope you enjoy the new user interface. A lot of love has gone into it. If you like it and could see your way to upping our rating it would mean a lot. The Talking Scripts Team
Only option out there
Nearly Perfect
Developer, one quick thing:
I’ve signed up for a premium trial, and though I’ve logged in on both my up-to-date iPhone and my up-to-date iPad, “Copy to Talking Scripts” never shows up in PDF share options, even in the extended options (“More”), on my iPad. It showed up immediately on iPhone, but even after restarting, removing and reinstalling, and such combinations of actions, still no go on iPad.
Would you pretty please look into this? Many thanks!
Response from developer
So sorry in the late response. Sadly our app is not designed for iPads. We will in the future be expanding to iPads, desktop and Android, but at the moment we are concentrating on getting amazing new AI voices which are really exciting. Please bear with us.
Wow!
Response from developer
So glad you are enjoying it. Get ready for a new interface and a big upgrade in the voices. Many thanks for the review
Works great
Hard Pass…
For those that use it primarily to run lines then maybe I get why it could be somewhat useful.
Response from developer
Hi there! Thanks for your feedback and for taking the time to test it out! We are trying to develop the app for those, who like Idris and myself are dyslexic and slower readers, or those on the move, or those who take in scripts better when listening. It is also being used by many actors who find the app helpful to learn lines and hear the words aloud. As a Director myself, I’ve always found it useful for time-management, allowing me to catch-up on multiple episode I won't direct, or new drafts. In truth, we are not here to replace script reading at all, it’s more for those who have more reading to do than most and find it a struggle. Talking with my technical adviser, she reminds me that we use the Apple voices and the Apple text to speech engine. She wondered whether you tried the enhanced voices (the help section explains how to download them) - I should add that those voices are much better, but are still lacking in emotion. AI still has more work to do in that field, but at the moment we are using Apple and they are amongst the best at text to speech.
Really useful!
Excellence app!
Game Changer
