Lelo Reader: Text to Speech

Launch week: every voice free for 7 days, then $9.99 once — no subscription. Reads PDFs, EPUBs, articles and the daily paper aloud, fully offline.

Lelo Reader is a reader that also reads to you. Import your PDFs, EPUBs, web articles and notes, and a neural voice made on your iPhone narrates them in Latin American Spanish or US English. No internet. No account. No subscription.

PUT YOUR PHONE IN AIRPLANE MODE. NOTHING CHANGES. Speech is generated on your device's own chip, faster than real time. Your files, your notes and your audio never leave your phone. The only thing that ever touches the network is an article you asked for.
