Perfect for studying

By Sami2689
This is the best app for studying! I add my pdfs and textbook chapters then I can follow along or I can even create a “podcast” based on the document.
The only downfall is the cost. I’m in a good financial position but many students don’t have extra money lying around

I am in eighth grade with severe ADHD and severe dyslexia. My mom showed me Speechify one day and I immediately knew this is how I was gonna be able to do my homework and read in Because the reason I wasn’t getting any of my work done was because I couldn’t read the text fast enough and even if I did, I couldn’t comprehend it Trust me you need this Speechify is the best.

Removed key feature and tough to use

By Wowiswill
I initially purchased a subscription because the app connected easily to kindle app so I could listen to books I had already purchased. It makes sense that feature would be removed eventually, but still… I’ve gone and scanned my book twice to be able to listen and the app is difficult for me to use. My intention was to simply retake a photo of a single page because some words were cut off, but there was no way for me to do that. I’m sure there’s a longer way to accomplish this, just frustrating I paid for features that are not optimized for my use.

Cannot actually create verbatim audio files. It does some BS podcast thing that takes out all of the information you actually need.
Scam

Does this app have the ai voices? Yes, but you have to pay for all of them except like 7 which are basically the text-to-speech on your phone. No, I’m not paying $60 to use your ai slop when I could find something else that does it for free with the same expected quality.
Waste of $$$

First of all, I didn’t want the app to begin with my child downloaded a free trial and now I’m stuck with it. After requesting Apple twice to refund my $139 they refuse. So I am stuck with it.. You have to have a file or download of whatever item you want it to read. It will not read a physical book that you’ve already purchased.
This app seems totally unnecessary. You can upload files to ChatGPT and chat will read it to you. I don’t understand why anybody needs this . Waste of $$$$$$$$.
3x App Tried Charging Me $140

I was on the free trial and I always cancel my auto-subscription in case. A few days after my free trial ended, they emailed me a bunch of follow-up marketing AND ATTEMPTED TO CHARGE MY CARD $139 purchase. If my bank had not proactively decline the suspicious transaction, I would be fighting for my money back. Super sketchy experience:/
**Update: Speechify keeps trying to charge me $140. 3x now. Luckily my bank keeps flagging the unauthorized charges.
In regards to the app itself, I was not impressed since my documents HAD TO be uploaded INTO the app. As a college student, was looking for a program to read aloud across various browsers/pages.
Cloned Voices

Been using this app for years - they removed my cloned voice - no explanation- no way to recover - moving to another tool- as for customers service it's non response
Custom voices removed

By Deezanutsa
They removed custom voices for premium paid users. Out of greed it’s only in the commercial version of speechify now. A slap in the face to long time paid users.
Now all you have is their generic voices. No point in using this app when you can do that for free on an iPhone or iPad.
