## What is Vois?

Vois reads articles aloud in a natural voice, made right on your iPhone. Save anything worth reading from Safari or any app, and listen anywhere, even offline, with each word highlighted as it's read.

No account. No subscription. Your reading stays on your iPhone.

THE GIST FIRST, WITH APPLE INTELLIGENCE
On iPhone 15 Pro and later, articles open with a short summary, so you can hear the gist before the whole story. Vois also cleans up every page you save, removing newsletter prompts, related links, captions, author bios and ad labels, so you hear only the article. It all runs privately on your iPhone, and it never changes a word of the article itself.

SAVE FROM ANYWHERE
• Tap Share, then Save to Vois, in Safari or any app
• Listen in Safari with the Vois extension, even on pages behind a login
• Copy text anywhere, then open Vois to hear it right away
• Ask Siri: "Read my clipboard with Vois" or "Continue listening in Vois"
• Shortcuts: save links or text automatically, even a whole RSS feed every morning
• With Vois Pro, import PDFs and documents, text from photos, and printed pages you scan

NATURAL VOICES, MADE ON YOUR IPHONE
• Lifelike AI voices, generated on the device: private by design
• Speech is prepared ahead, in the background and overnight while your iPhone charges, so articles play instantly, even in airplane mode
• Numbers, prices, dates, units and web addresses are read the way people say them
• Multilingual voices read 31 languages, including Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Hindi and Vietnamese

READ ALONG
• Word-by-word highlighting follows the voice; tap any word to jump there
• A mini player on every screen, Lock Screen controls and adjustable speed
• A library of everything you've saved, as cards or a list, with search and progress
• Designed for iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo, in light and dark, with VoiceOver, Voice Control and larger text

VOICE STUDIO
Type or paste anything and hear it in a lifelike voice in seconds, with no internet connection: a speech to rehearse, a bedtime story, a message in another language. Choose from 20 voices, then save a clip or export it as audio.

Vois is free to download and use every day. Vois Pro is a one-time purchase, with no subscription:
• Unlimited Voice Studio: any text, at any length
