SayWave: Text to Speech

SayWave turns written text into natural speech and converts spoken words into private, on-device text. Use Apple voices in multiple languages and accents, adjust playback from 0.5x to 3x, follow highlighted words, and listen continuously hands-free—even without an internet connection.

Import PDFs, scan text with your camera, dictate in dozens of languages, and manage everything in a searchable chat-style workspace. Edit, share, and enhance text with Apple Intelligence Writing Tools, or export audio as MP3, M4A, WAV, AIFF, or FLAC. SayWave also supports iMessage, Apple Watch, Siri Shortcuts, VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, Family Sharing, and 29 languages, with no data collection and voice processing that stays on your device.
