Save articles, PDFs, feeds, podcasts and video. Slurp reads them aloud and lights up every word. Free, no account.
Read it later. Hear it now.
Slurp reads anything aloud and lights up every word as it is spoken. Articles, PDFs, Word documents, newsletters, feeds, podcasts and video live in one library that syncs through your own iCloud. Free, with no account and no tracking.
SAVE IT FROM ANYWHERE
• Share a link, text, an email or a file from any app: Slurp sits in the share sheet
• Web links become a clean article, pictures and all
• PDF, Word, OpenDocument, RTF, TXT, Markdown and HTML files keep their formatting
• Posts from X and Bluesky arrive complete
A READING LIST THAT STAYS TIDY
• Collections and sub-collections, in the order you drag them into
• Want to Read and Finished lists, and filters for articles, PDFs, posts, podcasts and video
• Search runs over the full saved text, not just titles
• Items, collections and reading position sync through your own iCloud
A READER WORTH STAYING IN
• Clean typography with the article's real images, kept for offline reading
• The highlighted word stays in view as the page scrolls with the voice
• PDFs read page for page, with headers and footers left unspoken
• Pick up exactly where you stopped, on whichever device is in your hand
FIVE VOICES, FOUR ON YOUR DEVICE
• Kokoro, KittenTTS and Inflect: neural voices that run on your iPhone, with no key and no network
• Apple: every voice installed on your device, Siri voices included
• ElevenLabs: optional, with your own key
• Read at 0.75× to 2×, and switch voice for a single item
GENERATE ONCE, LISTEN EVERYWHERE
New saves are narrated in the background and the finished audio syncs to your other devices, so playback starts at once, even with no signal.
PODCASTS AND VIDEO, SAME LIBRARY
YouTube, Vimeo, Apple Podcasts and Spotify episodes play beside your articles, with the same player and Lock Screen controls. Podcasts download when you add them.
YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS, SPOKEN
Follow any RSS or Atom feed, play a new entry on the spot or file it away for later.
PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION
No account, no analytics, no server of ours that holds what you read. Your library lives on your devices and in your own iCloud. A bug report is sent only when you send one.
Slurp is also on the Mac, with browser extensions and a shortcut that reads whatever you select in any app: slop.ee/goodies/slurp

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
- Play Text is now Slurp, made by Slop Agency, with a new icon. Same app, same settings. Only the name, the look and the address changed: slop.ee/goodies/slurp.
- A Library: save articles, PDFs, Word and OpenDocument files, videos and podcasts to read or watch later, sort them into collections, and pick up on another device where you left off. Everything syncs through your own iCloud.
- Documents keep their formatting in the reader: headings, numbered lists, tables, emphasis, links, images and footnotes.
- Videos and podcasts play in the app, with the same player and lock-screen controls as a narrated article. Podcasts download when you add them, so they play with no signal.
- Subscribe to RSS feeds and play a new item straight from the list, or save it to the Library.
- On-device voices (Kokoro, KittenTTS and Inflect) that need no network and no API key. Each downloads from Settings when you pick it.
- Apple's Siri voices can be used for narration, grouped by language in the picker, and so can the voice you chose in your device's Spoken Content settings, including Siri's newest ones.
- The reader follows the spoken word more smoothly, keeps images, quotes and code blocks, and reads saved pages offline.
- Links from X and Bluesky, plain Markdown, and direct links to a PDF or Word file save and read properly.
- On the Mac, files can be dropped straight onto the Library.
- Report a Bug in Settings sends a screenshot and the app's own logs, so a problem can be looked at without a description of it.
- Fixes for memory use while idle, audio stalling between sentences, a crash when a synced item was deleted on another device, and a crash while feeds refreshed in the background.
