Tellable: Offline Read Aloud

Hear any page and follow every word. Scan a page, open a PDF or paste a link, and Tellable reads it aloud in a natural voice while each word lights up as it is spoken. Everything runs on your iPhone or iPad: no internet, no account, no upload. Five documents are free for good. Tellable Pro is one payment, or yearly if you prefer, with no free trial. MADE FOR STUDYING Your reading list, now a playlist. Textbooks, lecture PDFs, scanned handouts and papers, heard on the bus or at the gym at up to 3x while your eyes follow the word. Hard to focus? Hearing a word and seeing it lit at the same moment gives a wandering mind one anchor, and a glance finds your place again. Made with ADHD and dyslexia in mind. READ ANYTHING Scan pages with the camera, even an open book or two columns. Open PDFs (scanned ones too), Word, EPUB, DRM-free Kindle, Markdown, RTF and plain text, or photos and screenshots. Paste text, or paste a link and Tellable keeps just the article, or browse to a page in Websites and add it. Share a page from Safari to add it or play it next. A HIGHLIGHT THAT KEEPS UP A coral box sits on the word you hear, timed from the audio that is actually playing, at every speed. Numbers, dates and money are read the way you would say them, so "$1,200" is one box. Tap any sentence to jump there. Or show one word at a time, large and centred, in time with the voice. CLEAN READ Page numbers, running headers, footnote marks and citations like [12] are skipped, and words broken across lines are joined. What was skipped stays on the page, dimmed, one tap away. Tables are read row by row with their headers. ASK, SUMMARIZE AND STUDY Ask your document a question and hear the answer read aloud, with the pages it came from. Get a summary of a chapter or the whole book, or study notes and flashcards written to your focus. It all happens on your device with Apple Intelligence, so nothing is uploaded. Tellable Pro, on devices with Apple Intelligence and iOS 26 or later. NATURAL VOICES, BUILT IN Eight voices, American and British, live on your device and work from the first launch. No word limits, no credits, no download. LISTEN YOUR WAY Speed from 0.5x to 3x without the voice going high or low. Keep listening with the screen locked, with controls on the Lock Screen and your headphones. Sleep timer, bookmarks and notes, and your place is kept in every document. Say "Continue listening in Tellable" to Siri, or use Control Center. EVERY COURSE IN ONE PLACE Collections, search inside every document, and optional iCloud sync between your iPhone and iPad. MADE FOR EASIER READING Atkinson Hyperlegible or OpenDyslexic, text size, line spacing and four page colours. Full support for Dynamic Type and VoiceOver. On iPad, a sidebar, keyboard shortcuts and drag and drop. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your documents never leave your device: no account, no ads, no tracking. Tellable shares only anonymous usage, which you can turn off in Settings. Otherwise it goes online only to fetch a link you paste and to show the websites you visit in Websites. iCloud sync uses your own private iCloud and stays off until you turn it on. TELLABLE PRO Five documents are free, with every voice, word highlighting and Clean Read. Pro adds unlimited documents, Ask, summaries and study guides (with Apple Intelligence), Up Next (line up chapters like a podcast), Save as audio, and playing your notes aloud, so the night before an exam you hear just the sentences that matter. Pay once and it is yours forever, or choose a yearly plan; Tellable reminds you three days before it renews, and you can cancel at any time in Settings. Both plans include Family Sharing.
