Prismark reads aloud whatever you give it, and marks each sentence as it goes. The articles you saved, the PDFs you meant to get to, the books on your list: press play and listen on a walk, at the stove, on the train, or when your eyes are tired. Bring Anything In • Share an article from your web browser, and it arrives cleaned up and ready to play. • Paste text or a link. • Open a PDF or a document from Files. Follow Along • The sentence being read is marked like a highlighter, and the page keeps up with the voice. • Tap any sentence to jump to it. • Jump between chapters in longer books. • Choose a voice and set the speed. • Keep the screen awake while you listen, or listen in dark mode at night. Keep It Tidy • Sort documents into folders, each with a marker color of its own. • Pick the color that marks everything else, the app icon included. Prismark for iPhone Duo Open it like a book: the text on one page and the player on the other. Close it and keep listening on the cover. Voices run on your device.
