Features & Capabilities

Thousands of classic audiobooks, free, with the book's words on screen following the voice. Start with Pride and Prejudice, Sherlock Holmes or Dracula.

Hear a great book and see every word as it is read.

Narrate plays audiobooks with the book's text on screen, following the voice word by word. The words already read stay dark, the one being said is bold, and what's still to come waits lighter, so you can look up from a page and pick it straight back up by ear, or the other way round.

FREE CLASSICS, READY TO PLAY Discover holds thousands of public-domain classics: audiobooks read by LibriVox volunteers and ebooks from Project Gutenberg, all free, with no account and no subscription. Jane Austen, Arthur Conan Doyle, Mary Shelley, Charles Dickens, Leo Tolstoy and many more. Pick a reading, tap play, and it starts while it downloads.

THE TEXT FOLLOWS THE VOICE Narrate listens to the audiobook on your iPhone and lines its words up with the book. Tap any sentence to jump the audio there. It all happens on the device: nothing is uploaded.

YOUR OWN AUDIOBOOKS Add audiobooks you own without copy protection (MP3, M4A, M4B, or a ZIP of them) together with the book as EPUB, PDF or plain text. Narrate pairs them up and makes the read-along for you.

MADE FOR LISTENING

  • Chapters, speeds from half to three times, a sleep timer
  • Clearer voices: background noise reduction and a voice boost for older recordings
  • Translate the text under each paragraph, on the device, while you listen
  • Page through a PDF book while the audio plays
  • Your books and places in iCloud Drive
  • Catalogues by address (OPDS), and public libraries in the Palace network
  • Optional Hardcover connection: what you're listening to shows on your Hardcover profile

PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no tracking. Your books, notes and listening stay on your iPhone and in your own iCloud.

Narrate can't open audiobooks bought from shops that lock them with copy protection (such as Audible or Apple Books).
