01 — Overview

What is Speechify?

Speechify reads text aloud so you can take in documents while commuting, exercising or giving your eyes a rest. It handles web pages, PDFs, Google Docs, emails and ebooks, and can scan a printed page with your phone camera and read that too.

Reading speed is adjustable, which is popular with people who want to get through material faster, and many users with dyslexia or ADHD find listening easier than reading. It also offers dictation and a studio for generating voiceovers, with a range of premium voices.
