Local AI Reader automatically splits the text into sentences and speaks them one by one, with every word highlighted in real time as it is read aloud. Follow along, skip ahead, or tap any sentence to jump straight to it. Choose from 8 distinct voices — American English and British English, male and female — each powered by a language model that runs entirely on your device!
