Speech Central. It’s a text-to-speech app. And it’s actually free, but has a £6.99 one-time upgrade.

I’m someone who uses the accessibility screen reader a lot so that I can “read” things while I’m walking. But this app just makes the whole experience so much better.

My primary use case for it is reading webnovels. They’re published online, usually one chapter per webpage. So what I do is write my own web scraper to extract the novel into a text document that I convert into an .epub and import it into this app. Suddenly I’ve got a full audiobook, and the best thing is I don’t have to tap next page and restart the screen reader every chapter.
