Description
PaperHear reads your documents to you — PDFs, scans, web articles, pasted text and your own notes — in natural voices that run entirely on your iPhone.
FREE TO TRY, NO LIMITS WITH PLUS
Add 3 documents a month at no cost. PaperHear Plus is a one-time purchase that removes the limit: add as many documents as you like, hear every one of them and save each as an audio file (M4A). No subscription, ever.
BUILT FOR LISTENING
- Reads PDFs, scans, links and pasted text
- Keeps the original words on screen so you can follow along
- Resumes at the exact sentence you stopped on
- Works offline once a voice is on your device
- Sleep timer, playback speed, focus mode and notes
- Save a whole document as an audio file (M4A) to Files or anywhere you choose
VOICES
- 13 neural voices: English, Vietnamese and Mandarin Chinese
- Optional pinyin line under each Chinese sentence
- Hear a short sample before downloading a voice
- Delete voices you do not use and reclaim the space
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- Speech is generated on your device — your documents are never sent to a speech server
- No account, no ads, no tracking
- Your library stays on your iPhone, with backup and restore when you want a copy
Scan a page with the camera, paste an article, or open a PDF from Files. PaperHear cleans up headers, page numbers and clutter, then reads it to you while you walk, commute or rest your eyes.
