User Reviews

Overall, users praise NovelReader for its strong audio read-aloud feature, large library, and low ads, plus reliable offline downloads. It’s a long-time favorite with smooth text-to-speech and multiple voices, and a robust library. However, the app's experience is marred by persistent ad issues (soft-locks, banners, and video ads), occasional audio/translation glitches, stability problems (crashes, ads interfering), and reports that many titles are not up-to-date. Some users request UI improvements and more voices. Despite bugs, many users remain loyal and view it as a top free reader option.

Pros

Strong text-to-speech with multiple voices and offline listening
Large, diverse library with popular novels
Minimal ads compared to other apps
Offline downloads and offline reading support

Cons

Ads can cause soft-locks and interrupt reading (sticky ads, video ads that mute audio)
Audio/translation quality issues (raspy voices, mistranslations, repeated text)
Stability problems (crashes, ads interfering with use)
Not all titles are up-to-date; updates can be slow or missing

Recent reviews

Not sure what’s happening but I don’t see new novels or updates lately. I pay a yearly membership and it’s sad that the app isn’t getting updated liked it used too
