User Reviews

Overall, users praise NaturalReader for its natural voices, broad voice options, and usefulness for studying, accessibility, and turning text into audio. It’s easy to use and supports converting ebooks, manuals, notes, and photos into spoken content. However, repeated concerns center on the cost: the paywall and limited free voices frustrate many users, with some feeling the free options are degraded. Reliability also emerges as an issue, with reports of crashes and glitches. Complex documents like PDFs with tables can behave poorly. Despite these drawbacks, many reviewers view it as a game changer when price and stability improve.

Cons
  • Expensive subscription/paywall with limited free voices

  • Stability issues: crashes, glitches, unreliable performance
Recent reviews
This used to be my favorite TTS app. I thought the subscriptions were a bit pricey, especially since even the Plus and Pro plans have character limits, but I really appreciated the fact that you can edit pronunciations and that there are bilingual Mandarin + English voices. The app is very glitchy; a lot of times it does not start reading from where you tap and instead jumps to some other part of the text. But I was okay with not having as much QoL stuff because I liked the voices and that you could download audio. But recently I lost access to my subscription despite still paying for it, and when I tried to contact support I was given the exact same instructions that are already on the FAQ page, which I obviously already followed (and said this to the representatives I spoke to). I was told it was an issue with the iOS app store, but none of my other subscriptions are behaving in this way. I have cancelled my subscription and will unfortunately no longer be using this service.

Recently every single text that I try to download as mp3 fails I am paying the monthly subscription so it really sucks that I cannot use it properly.
