It is free, except you get a pop up every 5 sentences asking if you want to unlock the app for $4.99. You can say no and continue listening, for another 5 sentences. Very 5 sentences I get the pop up. Otherwise, it's good for listening to PDF research articles for school.

This app is great and super simple. If you have a PDF that has a header with page numbers and title, you can crop them out and have only the real text read. I have tried some of the pricier app in the App Store and this blows them out of the water. It's cheaper and it simply makes listening a breeze. Voice quality could be improved but still 5Stars. Yes, a pop up asks you to purchase the voices after a few sentences but at least they let you try the app instead of charging $15 for something that is fancy but reads footnotes and page titles. I like this and it's price point is reasonable.

I purchased this app about 7-8 months ago (paid to unlock the English version). It worked fine on my iPhone, but I could not get it to work on my iPad, as the app wanted me to pay another $4.99 to unlock the reader on that device. Recently my iPhone updated and I lost the ability for the app to read more than the 3 lines. It wanted me to pay $4.99 to unlock it on the same device it was previously unlocked on. I contact app support about the issue without a single response. Highly frustrating app and money hungry company. I do not recommend this app for anyone anymore. Foxit PDF reader has a reader in that app and it’s all free. The voice isn’t as “human” sounding, it works flawlessly and it free. I am still awaiting contact from the support team regarding this issue.

This helps me read PDF articles and books while commuting, doing house work, or exercising.The crop feature is essential.As with all PDF documents, footnotes render the documents inaccessible to people who read via text-to-speech (because the variation in footer size across pages with different amounts of footnoting). That’s an issue with authors/publishers, not this app.Of course, the first app to solve that problem can take my money (unless it uses a subscription model; I only buy apps with permanent licenses).
