Murmura — Listen to Your Books

PDF & EPUB Neural Voice Reader

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Murmura transforms your documents into immersive listening experiences. Import any PDF, EPUB, or text file and hear it read aloud in a natural, human-like neural voice — with every word highlighted in real time as it's spoken. NEURAL VOICES THAT SOUND HUMAN Forget robotic text-to-speech. Murmura uses advanced neural voices that sound natural, with proper rhythm, emphasis, and intonation. Choose from 10+ voices across accents and styles. WORD-BY-WORD SYNCHRONIZED READING Follow along as each word lights up in sync with the narration. Non-active paragraphs gently dim so you can focus on what's being read. Reading and listening, unified. AMBIENT ATMOSPHERE An optional procedural soundscape creates a calm, immersive backdrop for your reading sessions. Choose from Focus, Calm, or Night modes — or turn it off entirely.
