Finish what you started. Turn the PDFs and books you abandoned into audio that sounds human — and get through them while you train, drive, or walk. 23 languages.
Finish what you started.
You've got a stack of books and PDFs you meant to get through — half-read, saved, never reopened. Papyr turns any of them into audio that sounds like a person, not a robot, so you actually get through them — walking, commuting, training.
YOUR PDFS, IN YOUR EARS
- Drop in any PDF — a book, a paper, a report, a long article you saved
- Real AI voices in 23 languages. Not Siri. Not a robot.
- Read-along highlights every word as it's spoken
- 0.5x to 3x speed, offline downloads for flights and dead zones
- Background play, lock screen, AirPods, CarPlay — listen anywhere, hands-free
THE READER — FREE, FOREVER
- A genuinely good PDF reader: dark, sepia, distraction-free
- Book Mode reformats messy PDFs into clean, readable typography

THE MEMBERSHIP
The reader is free. Listening is the premium layer.
- The human-sounding AI voices in 23 languages come with a Papyr membership — by the week or the year.
- Prefer to own instead of rent? A one-time Lifetime unlock gives you unlimited offline listening, yours for good — no subscription.
No trials that quietly auto-renew. No ads. No data harvesting. No dark patterns. Cancel in one tap.

Premium audio requires a Papyr membership: an auto-renewing subscription, or a one-time Lifetime unlock. Subscription payment is charged to your Apple Account and renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

Ratings & Reviews
What's new:
- The Library screen is gone. Search now lives on the home screen, and results show right in the cover carousel — one place to browse instead of two. Search now reaches your whole collection, not just recent books.
- New: tell Papyr what you feel like reading, and it suggests books missing from your collection, picked by the gap they fill, not by taste. It looks at the titles you already have. Papyr does not provide the books; it tells you what's worth reading so you can find and add them yourself.
- Generated book covers now come in different colors, not just dark blue.
- The app launches faster, the shelf scrolls smoother, and it now opens right on the book you last read.
