Overview

A closer look at Paper2Audio: Text to Speech.

Paper2Audio turns reading material into audio for people who would rather listen during a commute, walk, or household task. Its listing says it accepts PDFs, EPUBs, web pages, Word documents, plain text, and scanned documents. The reader is designed to skip page numbers, citations, and other clutter that can interrupt spoken text.

A synchronized reading view shows text alongside audio, with controls for playback speed, highlights, notes, and jumping through a document's table of contents. The developer also describes summaries of figures, equations, and tables, which may make technical material easier to follow while listening. Screen-reader support and dyslexia-friendly fonts are listed as accessibility features.

The free tier is described as allowing up to 56 hours of generated audio each week. Paper2Audio Plus raises that limit and adds audio export; exact prices and billing periods should be checked in the store. Automated summaries can misrepresent complex diagrams or equations, so consult the original document for important details. This page is based on the official US App Store description; we have not tested its supported file types or narration quality.
