Currently awaiting App Store approval
Upload a dialogue-based PDF, assign a voice to each speaker, and listen as every character is read aloud.
Choose a PDF containing selectable text. Each speaker’s name should appear before their dialogue, followed by a colon.
Enter each character’s name, then select and preview the Apple system voice that will read their dialogue.
Multi-Voice Reader identifies each speaker and reads the document aloud using the voices you selected.
Leo: Are you ready to go?
Maya: Almost. Give me five minutes.
Narrator: Leo looked toward the door.
Each name followed by a colon is treated as a separate speaker.
Whether you're writing, editing, studying, or simply enjoying a story, Multi-Voice Reader brings dialogue to life with distinct voices for each speaker.
Hear your dialogue performed aloud and discover conversations that feel awkward, repetitive, or unnatural before you share your work.
Assign a unique voice to each character to better evaluate pacing, personality, and the flow of conversations.
Preview scripts with multiple voices before recording with narrators or voice actors.
Practice conversations, language exercises, classroom dialogue, and presentations with separate voices for each speaker.
Prefer a single voice? Multi-Voice Reader also works as a traditional PDF reader by automatically using a single Reader voice.
Rehearse dialogue and experiment with different character voices before a live performance or recording.
Multi-Voice Reader works whether your PDF has a single narrator or an entire cast of characters. Choose one voice for traditional reading or assign a different Apple system voice to each speaker.
Choose one voice for articles, books, essays, and ordinary PDFs. The app automatically uses the name Reader and reads the entire document with that voice.
Assign a different voice to each speaker in dialogue, scripts, and stories. Narrators can have their own voice, and Pro supports up to 10 voices.
