Document ReaderToo busy to read? Listen instead
Document Reader turns any PDF, EPUB or Word file into a natural-sounding audiobook — and even reads printed pages you scan with your camera. Commute, cook, work out: your reading comes with you.
Your documents, in your ears
Import anything, listen anywhere, pick up exactly where you left off.
Reading that finally fits your day
The report gets reviewed on the commute. The textbook chapter happens at the gym.
Build the reading habit that never stuck
Set a daily goal, watch your streak grow, and see pages pile up week after week. Listening removes the friction that kills reading habits — the app makes the progress visible.
