Import a document or provide a link, and Speaky will extract the main content, detect the language, and read it to you. It supports 40+ languages, multiple voices and accents, adjustable speed, a queue for continuous listening, and offline playback.

User Reviews

Reviewers consistently praise Speaky for its ease of use and for turning web articles or news into listenable content on the go, with several noting years of reliable use. Recurring drawbacks center on pricing—updates shifting to a paid model and higher Pro prices—and on content-reading limits, where only a small portion of text is read from URLs or pasted text. Overall sentiment is positive on usability, tempered by pricing and reading limitations.
Pros
  • Easy to use with a simple, intuitive interface.
  • Great for consuming web articles and news on the go (including in the car).
  • Long-standing, reliable app used by many reviewers for years.
Cons
  • Pricing model changes: recent updates make it a paid app and Pro price has increased; subscriptions are a point of frustration.
  • Content-reading limits: sometimes only a small portion/paragraph of text is read from a URL or pasted text.
Recent reviews
I’ve been using this for years but stopped recently when I noticed that, whenever I put a text into the editor, only a small paragraph plays. The app was wonderful but has become useless.

It's very useful and very easy to use.

I was given a price for pro, but wasn’t able to download it at the time. When I opened the app again, it was about twice as much.
