Readio - Listen to the web

Listen to articles, your way

One price, yours forever. LISTEN ANYWHERE

User Reviews

This was not possible to find on the App Store. I put the exact name and scrolled twice to the end but still couldn’t find. This app was recommended to me on Reddit by a user. That user ended up having the share the link many times because I wasn’t the only person who could not find it. It’s almost if this app doesn’t not exist for users to find. This app is one of the most disruptive tools for my workflows. I use this app to save links but never came around to most of the stuff saved because I would be spending most of time reading! This app allows me to dive into hundreds of hours of saved links from the web I have for my studies. This app turns any webpage into a reader. My current audio play is Four missconceptions about nonverbal communication from pubmed central. I recommend this app for anyone how wants anything that has a link to be read.
