Text to Speech - SayTXT Reader

SayTXT reads documents, webpages, or scanned text aloud with optional highlights and audio export.

Our take

Consider it if you want one reader for PDFs, ebooks, and text captured with the camera.

Read Mode can skip some document elements while word highlighting helps you follow speech.

Keep in mind: OCR and document cleanup can miss text. Audio export is limited to supported voices.
