Audiobook: Scan & Listen uses your camera to capture a page, reads the text with on-device OCR, and plays it back in a natural voice. No typing, no waiting, no internet required for the core experience.

Perfect for students, commuters, language learners, people with low vision or dyslexia, and anyone who would rather listen than read.

▶ HOW IT WORKS
1. Scan a page with the smart document scanner — it auto-detects edges, crops, and flattens for the sharpest text.
2. The app recognizes the text on your device.
3. Press play and listen. Follow along with karaoke-style highlighting.
