Voice Dream Reader lets you listen to any articles, blog posts, reports, papers, and books. It reads the text using the best available text-to-speech technology. The voice is clear and natural. This is the right ...
As great as this app is in general it is full of so many bugs that it is very difficult to determine its actual value or usefulness Bugs in and of themselves are not an issue so long as u have a competent developer who is willing to fix them which is where Voice Dream falls down As you can see from many other reviews the DEVELOPER of this software is the biggest problem with this software The developer seems to enjoy developing software but he does not enjoy FIXING his software unless the overwhelming majority of his customers all happen to have the same issue which would rarely be the case So use Voice Dream if u want But do not expect any bug fixes or for the developer to seriously consider anything u might suggest to improve his software Very sad given his talent But he apparently has little or no business sense which might explain why he has such a relatively small customer base And further proof that he is no businessman is the fact that he believes he has a HUGE customer base Of course the bigger the customer base given this developers strange philosophy the less likely that he will listen to any of them As such I assume his business will continue to be small struggling least until he learns to value every individual customer he has insteading of only trying to keep the masses happy Being part of a very successful business I can say that the key to success is treating EVERY CLIENT like a valued customer You dont invalidate an individuals suggestions or bug reports simply because you havent heard that suggestion or bug report from enough other people Either a suggestion is good or bad Either a bug exists or it doesnt And it shouldnt matter how many people tell you about it     SOFTWARE DEVELOPER WARNING
Perfect application Keep up the good work                 Everything you would expect
Well designed app that functions perfectly                 Beautifully designed
The app is out of this world Some of the voices sound very human like I use this app on a daily basis I gave this app a three star rating because the developer has still not responded to my question I tried contacting him twice but still no response So if you dont care about app support go for it and get this app but if you ever need any help dont count on it           Awesome app but nonexistent support
When I dont have time to read a webpage I just save it to instapaper which I have set up to go into Voice Dream so I can listen to the page while driving Works perfectly Sounds natural Very worth the price                 Very useful
Thank you for supporting old iOS versions My wife still loves her iPhone 4s with iOS 6 on it And I was happy to find out that your app can be installed on it Please dont eliminate the support of old phones Update on 20150603 new voices Sharon and James in particular are absolutely great addition to the family James reads like a living person Sharon is too sexy to read technical blogs                 Awesome
I just downloaded this app to read a pdf file to me while driving I had to convert my pdf with ocr text recognition in another app and then add it to Voice Dream Reader The voices that are included with app are decent but I paid 499 to upgrade to Premium voice and it is excellent By far the best text to speech voices to listen to that Ive come across My only issue is it reads parentheses and page numbers If I could disable that I would give it 5 stars I expect to use this frequently              Great app so far
This is so helpful It has every feature I could want and when I have a question the team responds in good time                 Amazing
Simple question and never got a response     Zero for customer service
I love this app I find it very useful for listening to articles that I dont have time to sit and read I listen while I am walking and get exercise at the same time As you should expect the speech is not as good as a real person talking Because it is computergenerated I dont expect it to be perfect but it is quite good Im often impressed how good the voice inflections actually are And it has some great features too One of the features I use all of the time When I see a long Internet article that I am interested in I send the URL link to Pocket Read It Later Within a few minutes it shows up in Voice Dream so I can listen to it or read it if I want Some really useful new features and enhancements come with each upgrade The developer is quite responsive and does a great job enhancing this program I use it almost every day and wish more people knew about it Im even more impressed with the improvements in each upgrade It deserves to win lots of awards for best productivity apps This program ROCKS                 Awesome app
Ive listened to 100s and 100s of hours ebooks with this app and still love it Some may think that the app is expensive and then cheap out on the voices which is what I did but I strongly suggest the 499 Ivona voices They are worth the extra Ive removed all the 299 voices I bought As an American I particularly recommend the UK english voices Brian and Amy Listening to the UK accent helps cover up the occasionally oddly spoken word US Sharon is good too I recommend this app to others all the time                 My Most Used App
Ap doesnt allow you to select text on webpage want to read so wont upload the text I actually want read Must upload the text on each individual webpage for ap to read it Does not work for my intended use        Webpage text to speech is clunky
Warning It doesnt do playback at the speed it claims to The details vary with the voice type but all of them seem to be off it always reads books slower than it says it will by like 2050 You can tell this by doing 5min of playback according to an actual clock and then seeing how far Voice Dream Reader gets I told the developer about some of his bugs last year and he doesnt care The feature reading along while you listen works quite badly at high speeds the scrolling is too jerky not smooth and itd be much better if it didnt scroll at all because you cant read text while its in motion it should have an option to just put up the new text with no animation to maximize reading time At least on an iPod Touch Other than these huge problems that shouldnt be that hard to fix but the developer absolutely wont care about I love VDR and use it all the time As much as VDR is amazing and you should use it I still wanted to warn people about the major bugs with the timing     Warning Inaccurate Timing
Ive tried other textto speech apps and this is the best Great versatility in the file types it takes plus the ability to bookmark and highlight in long documents or nonprotected ebooks Speech engine is not perfect but is good 999 of the time Overall a very usable program not just a novelty                 Brilliant App The Best
Voice Dream does a good job highlighting text as its read aloud but it fails to accurately extract the already accurate OCR results so words are read aloud incorrectly about once a paragraph That is too much and too distracting This assessment is based on using texttospeech TTS function of the same PDF file in Adobe Acrobat XI on PC using Read out loud and on Mac opened via Preview using the default and Alex voices Both of these methods had zero errors The problem with these methods is they dont highlight the text as it is read Also Dream Readers default function is flaky and just overall the program feels like a small time program that is heading in a great direction but needs help For web based articles Instapapers TTS with highlighting is good and will get better with iOS9 when they plan on supporting Apples Alex voice Tech support is pretty responsive but just couldnt solve these issues and kind of ignored the questions they didnt have an answer for I wish I didnt have to buy the program and spend the time to figure out this program wasnt going to work for me        Fails in text recognition should have a free trail version
Please add the ability to open a web page directly from Safari Otherwise a great app              Open from Safari
Aunque hay que comprar las voces vale la pena Es el mejor programa que conozco en su clase Muy bueno para los que no les gusta leer Lo recomiendo                 Excelente app para leer en Español
This is without a doubt the best and most powerful reading app currently available The fact now that it supports audio files makes it that much better Instead of using different apps for different reading materials I now use VD for pretty much all my reading needs Not to mention that its completely Voiceover accessible One item I would like to see included in future updates is the ability to play audio files at a faster rate of speed than what is currently allowed 200x If it could read as fast as the BARD app 300x that would be great Regardless as it stands VD is simply the best and more than worth the money I paid                 Best 1000 ive spent on my phone to date
This is a truly amazing app for reading books documents articles or anything while driving working out or just relaxing Others of written lots of details so I dont want to reiterate This is the single best app I have purchased in years I have not needed support the app is very intuitive and easy to use                 An outstanding game changer
This app is a game changer for students with visual impairments I consider it a must have                 Voice Dream Reader
I this application I put it on the first page of my iPhone and iPad You can adjust the speed of the voice too This app has many features I can make folders and import epub PDF and text files They have many gestures like double tap to play It will also let you login to your pocket account which is cool My favorite voice is Bridget Bridget is UK voice I am American but think this one is the most clear and more realistic than the rest You can change the highlight color background color size of text etc You can rewind and fast forward with gestures There is even a sleep timer Read the welcome text that comes with the app and there is a help one too you can read It tells you how to use this app I set the highlight color to bright yellow and it follows my text when it reads I chose the background to be a light sepia color like ibooks I suggest to make folders right when you import them to stay organized You can even import right into that folder You can add the files to itunes by selecting apps then scroll to the bottom and select the voice dream app then click add Then in the app on your iPhone choose to import from itunes and it will be available then select the file and click the load button I know text to speech has a ways to go but this one is the best I have found so far and is better than the one apple provides currently I think this app will save my eyes from having to read so much Many books I would like to be in audio form hasnt come to audiobooks yet so this is a great way to listen to your books You can also have highlights bookmarks see chapters and choose how long you want to skip ahead and back with the two finger swipe left and right One thing that I do often is I will send an article to the pocket application which I can access in VoiceDream and listen to the article anytime I want Apparently there are other services that you can use also but I preferred pocket You can send articles to Pocket in many different applications for example Flipboard News360 Tweetbot and many more I am very happy with this app and think its worth the dough to buy it Hope this helps Happy Listening and perhaps reading too                 Awesome Text to Speech app
I wish I had had this app when I was in college It wouldve made studying so much easier I suffer from dyslexia so I am a very slow reader This app allows me to listen to the books rather than try to read them It is great when Im driving in the car I found an application on the web that allows me to convert most book format into EPUBs It is then easy to load them into this app                 Great app if you love to listen to books
A great purchase if you want to turn any of your mobi or pdf into an audio book Great for long airplane rides                 Great App
Dont listen to AlexRdviews Also Billzen yes this app does work on the iPadI dont own an iPhone so perhaps there is a different version for the iPad as opposed to the iPhone but yes it definitely works in an iPad Guys dont know what theyre talking about This app receives great support and updates from the dev I use this app all of the time I have it synced up with my Google drive dropbox bookshare and my Instapaper accounts Just one click in safari and whatever webpage I am viewing is sent to this appusing instapaper Thank you Great update to an already awesome app Keep the great features coming Also the new voices are pretty expensive at 499 each but much better than previous voices Salli is the best oneIMO                 Bite the bulletthis app is well worth the 10
Nice design and accepts multiple formats                 Great app
Sometimes it sounds like it is In a foreign language It cannot always read things in tables especially bulllted formats It also needs to be able to link to other cloud services like google drive and microsofts one drive and etc it only gets stuff from iCloud and iTunes and web browser It does let you copy and paste and write your own texts I hope the next UPDATE has support for more cloud services Otherwise I dont recommend the app     Fails at recognition
This app does not work on iPad and developer does not respond to emails iPhone version is OK Update still does not work     Not working on iPad
I am an avid Instapaper user but couldnt read while doing dishes driving and such Now this app seamlessly reads to me I am thoroughly impressed by the quality of the voice is especially in Arabic It is noticeably better than the iOS built in voice I have even gone through complete books thanks to this app                 I use it daily
Fix pdf to text Too many strange words added It changes the original words to bizarre ones        Wrong conversion
Love this app but can you please consider adding Box integration                 Box Support
I love this app and highly recommend it The voice quality is incredible and it has customizable pronunciation It supports native PDF viewing and text reflow Thanks to the developer for an awesome app that keeps getting better                 Best text to voice app on iOS
I am a social scientist with low vision This is a truly beautiful app especially for anyone who has difficulty accessing print The layout functionality and quality of voices are unsurpassed I have it connected to my Bookshare Pocket and OneDrive accounts This app allows me to stay productive during three hours of commuting to and from the office but is just as enjoyable for a novel on the back porch                 A truly beautiful app for reading access
Always room for improvement but Im really impressed with this app Worth it              Great app
nothing compare with Natural Reader App this App is locking up it doesnt integrate with safari or any other Apps you can only import from other Appsonly come with one voice and the integrate browser dont work very disappointed     ripoff
I give this app a solid 45 stars leaning more towards 5 Im an avid reader and this is definitely my goto app for sure My only complaint has to do with the editor When you edit large documents it crashes voiceover Other than that in everything Ive used it for it works beautifully Keep up the great work and keep the great features coming                 Awesome App
Itz good Lotz of choices All u need to knock off all the books you ever wanted to read I just wish the app and voices were priced more reasonably              Pricey
It does what it supposed to do but it could be better The default voice is robotic like however you can have an inapp purchase for a better voice preferably an Ivona voice But it comes at an extra cost of 499 Thats in addition to the 999 youve paid for the app Also when in texttospeech mode you can see the words but you cannot see the picturesimages for webpages Besides that its Great If you dont mind spending 1015              Almost there
To tell you how much I like this app it is one of 4 purchases Ive made on the app store That number includes in app purchases and this app makes up a sizable portion of my app store investment More voices would be nice bit is very functional Used much more than my dedicated reader hardware                 Best of its class
Very functional simple app I use it for reading notes email BOOKS and studying I am grateful for the many voices I need variety Thank you This is a very functional app                 Functional Simple Useful
This application its very well developed maintained and very affordable This app is a game changer for people with visual challenges This app has extremely high quality output in addition the integration services on the web are phenomenal                 Voice dream reader
I have been using this app for over 3 months and it has fulfill all my expectations Thanks and keep up the good work                 Highly recommended
There has been little or no functional upgrades in a long time Recent upgrades were in my opinion a round about way to sell other products sold by the same company For example one of the upgrades forced the users to reinstall all the voices which were previously installed so that they would be available for a new product sold by the company even if users have no need or plans to buy it In my opinion it seems that no efforts are put into upgrading this product        No functional upgrades in a while poor support
I went back to school a long time ago and found this app I am now working on my Masters I do love this app Hoping the writer will allow more editing capabilities Thanks for this app                 Been using it since it came out
Update June 2015 this continues to be a flawless and extremely relevant app Ive spent time money and energy over the years to find the perfect reading app Today I can rest and say I found it This app is unbelievable the features functionalities formats support are just outstanding its like the thought of everything and only continue to improve Wow I can vouch for and corroborate the apps mottomission statement we are committed to making this the last reading app you will buy                 Exactly what I was looking for
I love this app because it helps me save time Im able to load articles from the web or pdf documents from work via Dropbox and listen to them while I walk run or drive When you realize how powerful this is youll think about how you should have bought this sooner                 Fantastic
Simply the best Second to none I tried many texttospeech apps out there and none of them even come close to this one The developer are super friendly and open to new ideas Well done                 Great app wonderful support
Tried TextAloud for iOS and others Voice Dream Reader is the Best                 The BEST
Access independence Easy I used to struggle with researching and citing experts articles Tutning books into digital files left me in a struggle This had made college hard Then extracting relevant info was time consuming Now I highlight book mark then export what I need Complex files are reduced to text with a swipe I can follow along with a voice that has accent emotion and different ages and gender Making it easier to focus on nonfiction And become apart of the story in fiction I have read news articles and cited them for professors in email I enjoy the access that Dream Voice gives me to providers like Bookshare                 Superb Application
This app has practically replaced the 3001000 Kurzweil software package that I used for several years Not only is it way more affordable but its incredibly easier to use I love the open in option from other apps and the GoogleDrive and Pocket syncing I also appreciate that I can load the text from the web through its browser feature After having the app for several months I just got the Sharon voice Im blown away by how lifelike it is and I thought Heather was good sorry Heather I kinda feel like Im cheating on her This is useful for people who are on the go but a godsend for kids and adults who genuinely need accommodations for their reading I really cant say enough about this product you should just try it out                 An AppStore Gem
1May you please added more options to import files from different sources such as ibooks and other PDF and files organizer apps 2I would like also ask you to add option to create list of the vocabularies that I can saved them form different files 3As student I would like to suggest adding the quiz option to review the words I save in the list 4Support for apple watch so we can control and adjust the reading speed and pauseresume option 5 Time and day tacker for the file I start using So at the end I can have a report from the app inform me how long I spent to finished this booking how many occasions and the speed of reading 6 Statistical analysis for may performance regarding reading the books over time Thank you very much        Nice app but we looking for more improvements
