Speaky - Text & Article Voice Reader

It's often really hard to find the perfect time to read everything you added to your reading list. Speaky is a very efficient way to solve that problem because you don't have to read your articles yourself anymore, this app does it for you. Take any article from anywhere on the internet and have it read out to you.

How it works? Give the link of your article to Speaky and that's it. It will extract the main content, detect the language, show you all the voices it can use and read it out loud to you using the built-in voice synthesizers in iOS. You can also enter any text you want manually if you want. And if you are a Pocket user, good news: You can retrieve any article from your Pocket's Queue. Speaky also supports Background Audio so if you want to switch to another app or just lock your device and still enjoying your article, you can.

Speaky is an incredible app to boost your productivity but it's also a very powerful tool used by doctors, teachers, students who want to learn a new language, people with dyslexia, users who want to practice speed-reading but also by blind and low-vision people. And it's great not just on the iPhone, but on the iPad as well where Speaky takes great advantage of the expanded iPad canvas.
