UPLOAD YOUR BOOK
• Word (.docx or .doc), EPUB, PDF or TXT, up to 25 MB
• Pick a file, or use Open in NovelHive from Files or Mail
• Your book needs to be in English, with clear chapter headings
• Your uploads stay private to your account
CHECK IT BEFORE IT'S SAVED
NovelHive finds the chapters and the characters who speak in them. Review the title, author, summary and cast, rename anyone, and add voice hints like "gravelly" or "gentle" before anything is saved.
A VOICE FOR EVERY CHARACTER
• Each character gets a suggested AI voice: tap to hear a sample, or pick another
• In a very large cast, minor characters may share a voice
• You see the price in credits and your balance before you create the audiobook
LISTEN IN THE APP
• Playback speed from 0.5x to 2x, a sleep timer, 15-second skips and chapter skips
• Keeps playing in the background and on the lock screen
• Prefer to read? Switch to the text at any time
• Audio streams from your NovelHive library, so listening needs an internet connection
NO MANUSCRIPT YET? START FROM AN IDEA
Describe a story, like a mystery in Victorian London or a romance on Mars, and NovelHive writes the novel, designs its cover and can narrate it as an audiobook. Share the novels you create in Novel Square, and discover stories other people have shared, some with audio. Uploaded books always stay private.
CREDITS, NOT A SUBSCRIPTION
Creating audiobooks and novels uses credits. Credit packs are one-time in-app purchases: there's no subscription, and purchased credits don't expire. You always see the cost before you confirm.
Try before you buy: if your balance is too low, you can hear the first chapter of an uploaded book free, read by its cast. This needs a verified email, covers up to 30,000 characters and is limited per account.

iOS USER PRIVATE
Final update:Im giving up. I wanted to like this app it was supposed to do what i had been looking for but it just isn’t there. I am appreciate the developer’s attempts to fix the issues I’ve had but they continue. they very generously gave me free credits to make up for the amount of time spent and after being told the updates had been made I went on the website to start a new story because under the impression that it was on the website only that I would have full control of the story and it would have to go through me to process each step going forward which is something I see that they have recently added into the update of the iOS app, which is great but problem for me was that I attempted to create a story. I changed everything that it came up with and put in my own story ideas, taking an exorbitant amount of time again only for it to then decide that it was gonna continue before I finished when I wasn’t even on the website any longer. I didn’t give it permission. It just went forward then completed the story so I couldn’t change anything I had to do editing after the fact which guess what cost credits so I use up all my credits barely got two chapters completed took a break has since gone back and seen that the work that I did is all gone however, the credits are still used. So i an done i cant with this one. The fact that the app is able to bypass your wish to approve every step along the way and then charge you to fix what it did without your permission to begin with. It doesn’t sit well with me.Last update: I give the developer 5 stars so helpful and very open to critique but the apps ability to write a story is bad and it is supposed to Be able to edit and I thought I did but it turned my main character into an 8 year old who knocked up his sister and the sister & lover apparently told her father he too was the father so bad. Just bad. I tried I sent hours and this thing just didn’t come close it just made my story a faint bad echo that loves in**st so badUpdate: I can’t speak yet on whether it’s too good to be true but I can say I’m hopeful. Reaching through their email provided in the response to my review I can say they’ve impressed me with how much they stand behind their application and want it to be what at least I was hoping it was. Rarely do you see developers say or do much when faced with similar reviews often giving pre written responses that had they clearly not been cut and paste they’d be acceptable but the fact they’re on every negative review without change they lose their desired effect. They often encourage you to reach out only deny there is an issue or blame it on the user either they have two high expectations. We don’t know what they’re doing. But rarely do they ever acknowledge that there is an actual problem and that it’s being worked on. Or they’ll say it’s worth being worked on, but it never changes and I guess theoretically that’s what this could be as well but those email I received gave me the impression that they are Fully aware of what my complaints are in there are trying to address them. They convinced me enough that I chose to change my star rating just because well I can always change it back if they’re incorrect too they just seem too nice to give a bad rating until they actually fully deserve it meaning they don’t resolve but as long as they’re trying, I wish to give them a better review. I will update as soon as I am able to. It’s too good to be true. I entered in a detailed story idea it butchered it created stupid names and ridiculous ideas. I spent three hours editing all 32 chapters to fix it to align it with mine and want to do it put out the garbage one it came up with it’s a waste of time
