Readable Notes is an intuitive, accessible talking notepad designed to assist users with reading and writing through simple to use assistive technology.

Key Features

Text-to-Speech (TTS): Includes a variety of natural-sounding voices that can read your notes aloud as you type or upon request. The range and languages depends on your device

Synchronous Highlighting: Enhances focus and comprehension by underlining or highlighting words and sentences in real-time as they are spoken.

Speech Dictation: Allows users to capture ideas quickly by speaking directly into the app, which then transcribes the audio into text. This is dependent on the Chromebook device

Who is it for?

Education & Learning: Supports students with reading difficulties or slow reading speeds by providing a multisensory writing experience. It can also be used offline, and does not require internet access. Therefore it is an interesting app for use in test and exam conditions where word processors are allowed but internet is restricted.

Serves as an excellent automatic proofreader; hearing your text read back in a natural voice makes it easier to spot errors in flow, grammar, and content.

Accessibility Support: Provides "Point and Speak" capabilities and advanced writing aids for individuals needing extra communication support.
