## Review summary

Users repeatedly complain about excessive ads and unreliable voice features, with input/text not saving and several export issues. Additional frequent pain points include small text size and limited language support. Some reviews still praise core reading/TTS and find it useful for blogging and other tasks, but overall sentiment is hampered by ads and functionality failures.

- Strong text-to-speech / text reading capabilities.
- Useful for blogging and content creation (and some tasks like gaming assistance).
- Good English support with effective AI speech-to-text accuracy.
- Overall positive sentiment in multiple reviews (great, nice, cool).
- Shows potential to become a 5-star app if issues are addressed.

### Cons

- Excessive ads disrupt usage and some functions rely on ads.
- Voice features are unreliable: some voices don’t work (e.g., Filipino); voice/recording saving issues; input text can be lost on exit.
- Export and save problems: cannot save audio; export formats limited to WAV; need MP3 option; occasional missing characters in output.
- Text readability issues: font/text size is very small and cannot be enlarged.
- Language support limitations: no Filipino language and overall multilingual support is limited.
