Speechify

Speechify turns written content into audio so you can listen to documents, articles, PDFs, emails, and websites instead of reading everything on-screen. The app also adds a Voice AI Assistant that can respond to questions about what you’re reading, summarize it, and quiz you. You can install Speechify for free, and it’s widely used as a text-to-speech (TTS) and voice assistant app on Android, with 50M+ users worldwide.

Natural Voices in 60+ Languages

Speechify focuses on voices that sound human rather than robotic. It includes 200+ voices across 60+ languages, including official partner voices such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Snoop Dogg, and MrBeast. This variety lets you choose a tone that fits your listening style, whether you want calm narration or something more energetic.

Listen at High Speed Without Losing Clarity

Speechify lets you increase playback speed up to 4.5× (around 900 words per minute). This feature helps you get through reading-heavy material faster while still following the content, especially when you train your ear over time.

Turn Photos and Screenshots into Audio

Speechify can read text from a photo or screenshot. You capture text with your camera, and the app converts it to spoken audio so you can listen immediately. This helps with printed handouts, pages from books, classroom material, and quick snippets you don’t want to retype.

Voice AI Assistant: Summaries, Takeaways, and Quizzing

Speechify doesn’t stop at reading aloud. You can ask questions like:

• “What are the main takeaways?”
• “Quiz me on this essay.”
  The assistant can use your documents and on-screen content as context, acting like a personal AI reader, tutor, and study helper in one workflow.

Sync Across Desktop and Mobile

Speechify syncs your library across devices, so you can start listening on desktop (including Chrome) and continue on Android or iOS without losing your place. This supports commuting, workouts, and switching between work and personal devices.

AI Podcasts from Documents or Prompts

Speechify can generate “AI podcasts” from any document or even from a prompt. You choose a style such as “Thoughtful Talk” or “Lecture,” and the app produces a podcast-like format tailored to what you want to learn or review.

Free Book Library Included

Speechify includes access to classic titles at no cost, such as: Pride and Prejudice, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Frankenstein, Moby Dick, A Tale of Two Cities, Ulysses, War and Peace, and The Great Gatsby.

Extra Productivity Features

Speechify also offers tools that support ongoing work and study: note-taking, audio bookmarks, an inline website player, and cloud sync for seamless listening between devices.
