## Description

Turn any audiobook into a read-along. Auread transcribes on your device and highlights every word as you listen — no ebook needed, and nothing leaves your iPhone.

Auread turns your audiobooks into a read-along experience. It transcribes the narration right on your device and highlights each word in sync with the audio — so you can listen and follow the text at the same time.

WHY AUREAD

• LISTENING STATS — Daily goal ring, streaks, and a week / month / year dashboard.
• REAL CHAPTERS — Titles and headings inside the text, start time and length in the chapter menu, chapter or book timing at a tap.
• Real read-along — words light up as they’re spoken, with smooth auto-scroll.

PRIVACY FIRST
Auread has no account and no server. Your audio, text, transcripts and progress never leave your device. Transcription runs entirely on-device. The only network use is fetching public book covers (title + author), anonymously, and the free catalog when you use it.
