Read full description

VoiceForge Reader is a premium personal reading assistant that transforms text, scanned printed documents, and Safari web pages into natural-sounding speech. Paste text directly into the application, snap a photo of any physical page using the built-in document scanner, or use the Share Extension from Safari and Notes to read and translate your content instantly. KEY FEATURES: • Direct Text-to-Speech (TTS): Stream clear, natural-sounding audio sentence-by-sentence. • On-Device OCR Scanner: Use the device camera to scan books, letters, or printouts. Crop and rotate bounds with a custom visual editor. Text recognition occurs entirely locally and securely on your device. • Translate & Speak: Translate text on the fly using secure on-device system translation services, then read it aloud using high-quality voices. • Split-Pane Reading Mode: View original text and translated text in top-and-bottom panes or side-by-side (landscape), synchronized down to the exact sentence. • Karaoke Word-Highlighting: Visual highlights track the spoken voice in real-time, helping you follow along easily. Tap any word to skip or replay audio instantly. • 12 Interface & Speech Languages: Choose from Russian, Ukrainian, French, English, Arabic, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Turkish, and Chinese. • Custom Playback Speed: Fine-tune reading speeds from 0.5x to 2.0x. • Extension Redirection Handoff: Share links or text from Safari or Notes—the app instantly hands off the content to the main screen so reading continues in the background.
