Keep your talk, workout, or deadline visible. Float Clock keeps one important countdown in Picture in Picture, so time stays in sight while you present, train, work, or move between apps. SPEAK ON TIME Choose a 5, 10, 30, 45, or 60 minute talk timer. Add a private speaker cue, then use clear colour warnings to keep your pace: orange at 5 minutes and red at 1 minute. TRAIN BY SOUND Start Tabata, EMOM, HIIT, or a custom interval workout. Get a 3-second ready countdown, distinct work and rest sounds, round counts, and pause and resume controls. Keep your timer visible without watching your phone. MEET YOUR DEADLINE Start a quick countdown or a repeatable Deep Work plan. Your remaining time stays visible while you work in another app, and your talk, workout, and focus history remain separate. MAKE IT YOURS Create, edit, duplicate, delete, and reorder your own talk, focus, and interval templates. Keep your real routines ready for the next meeting, workout, or work block. START FREE Try essential floating timers, a quick deadline, a 5-minute talk timer, Tabata, one timer, and one stopwatch for free. A one-time Pro upgrade unlocks all templates and custom plans. Float Clock helps you keep time in sight and finish what matters.

Turn AI-written explainers, study notes, and briefings into personal audio you can take with you. Your AI tool has done the writing. You don't have to spend more time staring at a screen. Paste the text into MyListen, choose a voice, and generate audio right on your iPhone. Listen while commuting, walking, doing chores, or winding down. No subscription, account, or ads. MADE FOR LONG-FORM AI WRITING Paste and edit long texts, or import TXT and Markdown documents. Ask your AI tool to explain a complex topic, turn reading notes into a listening script, or prepare a briefing on topics you follow. Stories, book summaries, and other long-form writing can become episodes in your personal listening library, too. NATURAL VOICES, GENERATED ON DEVICE High-quality English and Chinese text-to-speech models deliver natural-sounding voices with smooth, easy-to-follow delivery. English narration sounds natural, too. Audio is generated right on your iPhone, without uploading your writing to a cloud TTS service. LISTEN WHILE IT GENERATES Start listening once 8 seconds of audio are ready. The rest generates as you listen—no need to wait for the whole piece. PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF MyListen remembers your listening position. Enjoy background playback, adjustable speed, and a sleep timer. Follow the synchronized transcript and return to saved episodes whenever you like. EXPORT YOUR AUDIO. COPY YOUR TEXT. Export completed episodes as M4A audio files or copy the full original text. You can also export all audio or all original-text documents separately from Settings. YOUR CONTENT STAYS WITH YOU Your text, generated audio, and listening progress are stored on your device. No account, no ads. WHY THE LARGER DOWNLOAD? MyListen includes high-quality English and Chinese text-to-speech models for natural-sounding narration on your device. These model files take up storage space, which makes the app download larger. Once installed, the built-in models need no separate download, and your text can be turned into speech without being sent to the cloud. MyListen reads the text you provide. It doesn't write stories or fetch news for you. Prepare your writing in your preferred AI tool, then bring it to MyListen. CONTACT & FEEDBACK Email: zsexdr123321456@gmail.com
