I know it's in Beta, if they do fix the bugs I will change my review, so the app does not work perfectly, the voices are the same as you get from other places, I sometimes use Google Assistant which just does sound better, the camera does not load, importing links sometimes works and sometimes does not, and I noticed that I used my Google Assistant to do a certain task, and they Speechify continued out of no where to resume it's playing. I really want this app to work, I hope you fix the bugs!! Would recommend for now checking out the Chrome Extension, that works just fine!

Ooooh my gosh, this needs a lot of work but it's already being promoted mindlessly in YouTube. Import does not support common eBook formats. You cannot select any TTS you download from other sources. Interface is too barebones. The only interesting feature is the automatic reading speed increase, but that is a paid feature. 50 bucks per year? Doesn't worth it for me guys, YET. I'm sticking with the app called @Voice. Great potential. Oh and I forgot that the notification bar is useless.

Amazing app! I would give it ten stars if I could. I don't have the pro version, but it is still life-changing for listening to my online textbooks. It cut my reading time in thirds, and now my classes are manageable. I would highly highly recommend!

The idea behind the app is pretty solid. I was looking for something like this for about six months and found this amazing app. But the app is the most buggy thing I've found till this date. It's downright horrible experience. The listening settings don't change at all, loading takes literally forever (i.e. libraries don't load at all) or the app crashes after waiting for a long time, the main feature - speed ramping doesn't work at all and the dark mode doesn't look good.

Pretty good. It makes things easier to get through as someone with dyslexia. I can just enjoy listening. A few things I wish for, though. Once I chose a voice and a speed I wish the app would remember my choices. But, each time I import a new article via URL it goes back to the default settings which are hard to hear/understand. Also, I wish there was integration with the Chrome browser so I could just tap something I wanted read to me and have it automatically import and begin reading.

This app is useful, but it still has some stuff to fix. I decided to sign up for the free trial, and the premium voices did not load for me. Tried reinstalling the app, but that didn't work. Besides, it does not seem to be able to import Pocket lists, even though it's offered as a feature. This app sounds very promising, hope you can get it to work 100%. It's good but can be better.
