Sonare turns written text into spoken audio, entirely on your device. Paste in an article, import a document from your Files app, or share directly from Safari, Sonare reads it aloud in a natural-sounding voice with each word highlighted in real time, so you can follow along, proofread, or simply listen hands-free. Nothing leaves your phone. Ever. There are no accounts to create, no servers processing your text, and no internet connection required. Sonare works the same on a plane as it does at your desk. FEATURES · On-device text-to-speech, all audio is generated locally using a high-quality neural voice model · Word-level highlighting, each word lights up in sync with the audio so you always know your place · Import from anywhere, clipboard, Safari share sheet, Files app, or any app that can share text · Multiple voices, choose from a range of natural-sounding voices · Playback speed control, slow it down for complex material or speed it up when you're in a hurry · Offline, always, no Wi-Fi, no mobile data, no problem PRICING 3 listens free. One purchase of $9.99 unlocks Sonare permanently - no subscription, no renewal, no hidden tier.
