Auread vs eBook Manager

Auread turns your audiobooks into a read-along experience. It transcribes the narration right on your device and highlights each word in sync with the audio — so you can listen and follow the text at the same time. WHY AUREAD • BUILT-IN FREE CATALOG — Browse LibriVox public-domain audiobooks, download one, and Auread fetches the matching Gutenberg text automatically: a complete read-along in two taps. • LISTENING STATS — Daily goal ring, streaks, and a week / month / year dashboard. • REAL CHAPTERS — Titles and headings inside the text, start time and length in the chapter menu, chapter or book timing at a tap. • Real read-along — words light up as they’re spoken, with smooth auto-scroll. • On-device transcription — no ebook required; Auread generates the text itself, privately. • Your speed — 0.5×–2× with preserved pitch, saved per book or globally. • A reading view you’ll love — adjustable size, themes, progressive illumination, Dynamic Type. • Automatic covers for your library. • Import anything — audio files, ZIPs of MP3s, even EPUB text. Built-in conversion. • Works offline — listen and read anywhere. PRIVACY FIRST Auread has no account and no server. Your audio, text, transcripts and progress never leave your device. Transcription runs entirely on-device. The only network use is fetching public book covers (title + author), anonymously, and the free catalog when you use it. LANGUAGES Interface in English, French, Spanish and German. Transcription supports multiple languages. Built for audiobook lovers, language learners, and anyone who reads better while listening.
