EasyReader is the first reading app designed especially for adults. It has been designed by a literacy teacher who has spent many years helping adults with reading difficulties. However, it is important to know that EasyReader can be used by all age groups! What makes EasyReader truly unique is that it is not a “learn to read” program. From the moment you download it, you can be forever free from struggling to read a piece of text. Featuring speech to text functionality, you can take speech and effortlessly turn it into text for use in emails, reading or any other purpose that may help you.
