Wonderful app unlike competitors you can use a completely free no premium service is needed though it can't do all the other features the features as is are amazing you can take a PDF copy / (not a direct file)or a massive amount from your Clipboard paste it and will read it aloud. The only thing I would ask them to change is if we could put a PDF or Word file straight into it. Thanks Guys!👍

The app now supports PDF files and extracts the text directly. Thanks for the great review!

It had generally been doing wonderfully. However, lately, it has started skipping while reading. a bit like the sound is flickering in and out on the reading voice. It will suddenly fall silent for a bit and then suddenly pick up reading again lines later where it probably would have been if it hadn't gone silent. I'm not sure why this is happening. It also occasionally keeps reading even when I select pause. only fix is to fully stop the app, clear data, and start over.

Thank you so much Text Reader team for keeping this incredible resource free! This is invaluable adaptive tech for different types of brains. Ps. for users who need a natural voice: it's not super intuitive, but the second drop down option at the top offers a multitude of voices - many of which are much more human than the initial preset. If it doesn't automatically change, pause reader and it should switch to the new one when you hit play again.
