Narra vs Joysa

Narra is a reader that brings your own books to life. Add a file — EPUB, FB2, TXT, UMD — or send a book to Narra from another app, and Narra reads it with you: it finds the characters, paints portraits and a cover, and narrates the book aloud. What's inside • Reader. Paged and scrolling modes, fonts, themes, table of contents, bookmarks, volume-button page turns. • Audiobook. Chapter-by-chapter narration, background playback, resume where you left off. • Characters. Names are underlined in the text: tap one for a portrait, a biography and their role in the plot. • Conversation. Talk to a character about what you have read so far, with no spoilers from later chapters. • Scenes. Key moments become illustrations. • Library. Your own books and a built-in shelf of classics, reading progress, back to the page you left. No account is required — no email, no password. To analyse a book Narra uploads it to its own server, and the upload and its analysis are deleted automatically a week after you last open the book.
