Frequently Asked Questions
Which voices can I use?
Your device's built-in voices — phones and computers each have their own natural-sounding set.
Does it work offline?
Once the page is loaded, yes — speech uses your device's own voices.
Scanned PDFs?
Only PDFs with real text can be read aloud. Scanned images have no text to speak.
