At first I was sad that such a wonderful and free app got locked behind a paywall. However, my sadness was short-lived as I understand noting is actually free and this company DESERVES compensation for their wonderful serviceS! …and then I saw the subscription prices and my short-lived sadness was replaced with anger. The prices were outrageous and made this app unaffordable for lower-income book lovers who like to read a lot. Then the app was suddenly free again while they reworked the plans and a few weeks later a new, much more affordable, subscription plan came out. I especially appreciate the unlimited monthly tier so you don’t have to worry about minutes and you only have to pay when you are on a book reading binge! Some months I’m in a slump or too busy and don’t read at all. Please keep the prices reasonable, always have an unlimited tier, and keep up the good work! This truly is the best book-to-speech app out there and does miracles for those who love to read but have challenging disabilities that make it difficult. In addition, so many books (especially indie and self-published books) don’t have an audiobook version so this not only helps those with disabilities but also helps indie and self-published authors as well. Thank you for listening to feedback and thank you for this wonderful app! <3

To Me — A Very Good Reader!
Dajiweppy
I have had the ElevenReader app for a relatively short time, but I’ve used it quite a bit so far. I appreciate that it’s pretty user-friendly. I also like the options that a person can choose. For instance there’s a nice selection of voices to choose from. Even with that you can adjust the speed of the reader, faster or slower, to suit your own listening style. Additionally, I have used it to listen to articles about the Bible. It has been very rare to find a reader that will correctly read where some verses are drawn from. For example if referring to a verse such as Psalm 83:18 most readers I’ve used usually handle that without any issues. But if citing a verse such as 2 Chronicles 6:8, invariably all the others I’ve used will read that as “two Chronicles 6:8” instead of the correct rendering “second Chronicles 6:8.” I really appreciate this. It prevents my brain from doing a slight double-take each and every time the leading number is handled as a cardinal number instead of what it should be, an ordinal number. The correct rendering helps me focus on the information and not on narration mistakes. For me this is much appreciated. Thank you!

This app is beyond the best I've used in several years. I know this app was made not so long ago, but this is a game changer. For one thing, it's free. Another thing I like is that there are some really really good hypo voices. I mean just thinking about it not every app you find on the App Store can compare to this bad boy right here. I mean, no bugs, none of that also, there may be some errors when you generate your books, that's just a server side thing. I haven't had any network issues using this app, and I highly recommended you choose this app to read your books, news, stories, anything you want to read, this app is for you. I know some good apps that do Text to Speech reading, but the other apps I used doesn't compare to this one. Several apps I use, their voices are natural but not good enough for AI the iPhone voices can be useful for VoiceOver on your iPhone but not when you read text. It's robotic, and you need something that will knock you off to sleep within an hour or so. all I'm saying is, five star review all the way
An amazing app if issues get fixed
Aviel.P
As others have said, the app is excellent when it works doing exactly what you want it to with a nice interface. You can have any article or file read to you at the speed of your choice in an AI generated voice of your choice. Eleven labs AI readers sounds completely natural and high quality. If you leave off midway through and article you can simply return later and pick up where you left off while reading along if you like. The problem is, it simply fails too often at present. I’ve used the app 7 times and it has not worked 3 of them. The text loads and the AI reader loads for the first 1-2 minutes then halts. Probably the server can’t handle the request, sometimes you get an error message sometimes you don’t but you’ll just have to try again in a few hours because it will not proceed. If this issue gets fixed I would absolutely love the app and use it all the time. As is, I can’t use it because the convenience of having the article read to me as opposed to reading it is outweighed by the inconvenience of the unreliability that it will work. I’ve stopped using for now but will try again in a few months to see if the issue is handled.
