The Narrator: Text to Speech
Listen to Articles & Podcasts
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Podcast Mode turns any article into a two-host conversation about it, so you hear the ideas talked through, not just read out loud.
Prefer one voice? Direct Mode reads the article straight through in a lifelike AI narrator.
Paste a link, paste text, or upload a document, then press play and listen while you commute, walk, cook, or wind down.
WHO IT IS FOR
- Commuters and walkers who want the reading done by the time they arrive
- Readers with ADHD or dyslexia, for whom listening is simply the faster lane
- Low-vision listeners: high-contrast mode, text resizing, and VoiceOver support are built in, not bolted on
- Students working through assigned reading and dense source material
- Anyone with thirty open tabs and a backlog they are never getting through by eye
HOW IT WORKS
1. Paste a URL, paste text, or upload a document
2. Pick Direct or Podcast narration
3. Listen right away, and save what you want to your library
FEATURES
- Podcast Mode: two AI hosts discuss the article together
- Cast your hosts: each voice has its own character, from sharp and impatient to playful and tangent-finding
- Whole-article podcasts on Pro: a long read becomes one continuous episode, split into parts that play back to back
- Six natural AI voices: Nova, Alloy, Echo, Fable, Onyx, Shimmer
- Adjustable playback speed and a sleep timer
- Lock screen and Control Center playback controls
- A library for the articles you want to keep
- English and Spanish narration
- High-contrast mode, text resizing, and VoiceOver support
FREE, AND IT KEEPS WORKING AFTER THE FREE PART RUNS OUT
You get 5 free AI narrations to start, Podcast Mode included. When those are used, the listening does not stop: your device's built-in voice keeps reading for you, unlimited, at no cost, for as long as you want it. That basic voice is plainer, offers play, pause, and stop only, and its narrations are not saved to your library, so subscribe when you want the lifelike voices and the full player back.
SUBSCRIPTIONS
- Casual: $4.99/month, about 2.5 hours of AI narration, articles up to 15,000 characters
- Pro: $9.99/month, about 9 hours of AI narration, articles up to 30,000 characters, and whole-article podcasts
ONE HONEST NOTE BEFORE YOU PAY
Some sites block automated readers, so paywalled and bot-protected pages may not be readable. We would rather say that up front than after your card is charged: run your usual sources through the 5 free narrations first, and subscribe only if they come through.
Subscriptions renew monthly and can be cancelled anytime in your App Store settings. Restore purchases anytime in Settings.

Articles now read cleanly: the narration skips menus, ads, video players and page footers, and opens with the headline, author and date.
Clearer loading messages, plus fixes and polish.
