Chimereader: AI Voice Reader
PDFs, EPUBs and articles
Free · In‑App Purchases
Read aloud PDFs, EPUBs and web articles. Keep your library in sync across iPhone, iPad and Mac using iCloud. 100 minutes free then 1 month free trial with subscription.
Chimereader reads your PDFs, EPUBs and web articles aloud in a natural AI voice, and highlights every word on the page as it speaks.
• Multiple AI voices to choose from — not a robotic screen reader, but one you can listen to for hours
• One subscription covers Mac, iPad and iPhone
• Add a book on one device and pick it up on another — optional iCloud sync keeps your library and your place
• Follow along, word by word, on the original page
• Read a web page on the site itself. The words light up on the real page, which keeps its own layout, figures, tables and code — and it works on pages you are signed in to, so the libraries you already pay for read like anything else
• AI layout detection leaves out headers, footers, page numbers, figures and diagrams, so you hear the text and not the page furniture
• Starts in seconds from any page — no conversion, no upload
• Runs on your device. Your documents are never sent to our servers
Built for people with more reading than time — students, researchers, and anyone who gets through papers on a commute or a walk.
The first 100 minutes of listening are free. After that, reading documents takes the Chimereader Monthly subscription, at the price shown in the app before you subscribe. New subscribers start with a free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and the subscription renews automatically until you cancel it in your Apple Account settings.

Ratings & Reviews
Fixes in this update
• Changing the voice speed now takes effect straight away — it no longer needed a voice change to apply
• In full screen, the first tap brings the controls back instead of pausing
• "Back to audio" now clears itself once playback moves to the page you scrolled to
• The web reader goes full screen when it starts reading, the same way the book reader does
