Wiki Reader Plus

Turn Wikipedia into a listen. Hear any article, web page, or pasted text read aloud—with word-by-word highlighting, background playback, and lock-screen controls.

Wiki Reader turns Wikipedia into something you can listen to. Search any article — or tap Random for a surprise — and your phone reads it aloud, with the current word highlighted so you can follow along.

It's not just Wikipedia. Paste in any text, or drop in a web link, and Wiki Reader pulls out the article and reads that too — skipping the ads and menus.

FEATURES • Listen to any Wikipedia article, read aloud by your phone's built-in voices • Word-by-word highlighting that follows along — tap any word to jump there • Read web pages by URL — just the article text, no clutter • Paste any text to have it read aloud • Random Article for endless discovery • Background playback with full lock-screen and Control Center controls • Skip 30 seconds, jump between articles, and scrub with a draggable playhead • Adjustable reading speed • Choose any voice on your device (download free Enhanced/Premium voices in iOS Settings for a more natural sound) • Sleep timer — drift off while it reads • Loop or shuffle when an article ends • "Recently read" history on each tab, with favorites and swipe-to-delete • Light and dark themes • Built with accessibility in mind — VoiceOver labels and actions throughout

PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No tracking. No analytics. Your reading history stays on your device.

FREE Wiki Reader is free. If you find it useful, you can leave the developer an optional tip — but every feature is available to everyone.
