Open a PDF and listen

Reports, papers, and manuals often arrive as PDFs, and a PDF is hard to read on a small screen. With SideReader you can listen to one instead.

Open the PDF with SideReader, or share it from your files or email, and it goes straight into Listen.

Two ways in

Text works too

The same goes for plain text. Share a passage to SideReader, or highlight it and choose "Read with SideReader."

Listen your way

Use the speed control to go faster through skimmable parts and slower through dense ones. Sky is the free US English voice, and a tip of any size unlocks 10 more voices for good.

Stays on your phone

The free voices run on your device, and SideReader has no accounts and no analytics. Your history stays on your phone.
