"Hi, this is Idris Elba.
Most scripts are read under pressure.
Late nights. Flights. Prep. Walks between meetings.
As someone with dyslexia, this was a killer.
I wanted a simpler way to stay connected to stories. I looked everywhere for something that could do this.
I couldn't find it. So I built Talking Scripts with award-winning director Stefan Schwartz - an app that brings your scripts to life, wherever you are.
We hope it helps you the way it's helped us."
Idris Elba & Stefan Schwartz

Easy to use and works well. An amazing time-saver! It really takes the strain out of reading through a big pile of scripts plus I got a lot of stuff done at the same time! I was surprised how fast I adjusted to the mechanical voices and I think that as more enhanced voices come out, the listening experience will become better and better. Very neat note-making feature.
Developer Response
Thanks for your review. And the 5 stars!! Actually there are some great enhanced voices that sound less mechanical already available. You can download them for free. Just follow the instructions in the Help section on the More page. There is even a handy table that gives our personal ratings for all the voices - it's on our website at http://www.talkingscripts.com. In the future - if people like this app, we will be bringing Idris's voice into the mix, along with some other actors we know, so watch this space. Happy listening.
Really neat app!

I’ve been looking for someone like this for a long time. It frees up a load of time for me.
Developer Response
Thanks for the positive review. It really means a lot.Some people have had a problem where it stops playing when the iPhone goes to sleep. If that ever happens to you, just turn off and on your iPhone. We will fix this in the next update.
Excellence app!
