Audissey: Web Audio Reader
Listen to web novels aloud
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Import web novels and listen on the go. Local TTS, background playback, read-along highlighting, and auto-import for new chapters. No monthly subscriptions.
Audissey turns web fiction into audio you can listen to anywhere — on your commute, while cooking, or with the screen locked.
Paste a chapter link from Royal Road or similar sites, and Audissey imports the story, cleans the text, and reads it aloud with natural text-to-speech. Build a personal library, organize stories on shelves, and pick up right where you left off.
LISTEN YOUR WAY
• Import stories from web URLs or pasted text
• Play, pause, and skip chapters with lock-screen controls
• Adjust playback speed to match your pace
• Read-along mode highlights text as it’s spoken
• Ambient listening screen for a calm, hands-free experience
SMART LIBRARY
• Auto-import checks for newly published chapters
• Automatically split massive, single-page stories (like Project Gutenberg books) into manageable chapters
• Search across stories and chapters
• Organize novels into custom shelves
• Track read progress chapter by chapter
• Syncs across devices
BUILT-IN AUTHOR SUPPORT
When a chapter includes Patreon, or PayPal link, Audissey surfaces them in the reader so you can support the author — without those links being read aloud.
INTELLIGENT, EXPRESSIVE VOICES
Choose Apple’s built-in voices or switch to Audissey Neural Voices, Audissey’s on-device neural voice engine. All speech synthesis runs locally on your iPhone so your stories stay completely private.
• Context-Aware Pronunciation: A custom heteronyms engine understands grammatical context, ensuring words like "read" (present) and "read" (past) are spoken flawlessly.
• Dynamic Expression: The built-in expressive engine automatically adds dramatic emphasis and pacing to action scenes and intense dialogue.
• Custom Dictionary: Define the exact phonetic pronunciation for unique character names and world-building terms.
• Per-Story Narration: Assign specific voices to individual stories right from their settings menu to perfectly match the vibe of the novel.
• Currently the Audissey Neural Voices supports English only, but we are working on adding more languages.
AUDISSEY PRO (optional one-time purchase)
Upgrade to Pro to remove ads, import unlimited chapters at once, and use Cache Ahead to pre-render Audissey Neural Voices' audio so listening continues smoothly with the screen locked.
Audissey is built for readers who love web fiction and want a simple, private way to hear their favorite stories — not another streaming subscription.
