Common questions
Does Narraloud work offline?
Yes. The voices come with the app and work offline from the first launch. Save web articles and files from cloud storage before you leave, and everything reads without a connection.
Is what I read private?
Your documents stay on your device and are never uploaded for narration. There is no account, no advertising identifier, and no tracking across other apps. The app keeps anonymous usage counts and crash reports, all listed in the privacy policy.
Does Narraloud use credits or minutes?
No. There are no credits, minute packs, or meters. Open the app and it reads for as long as you like, for free. Plus adds background listening, so the narration keeps going with the screen locked or another app in front.
What can Narraloud read?
Web articles you save or share to it, PDFs, EPUB books, scanned pages, and more.
What do the voices sound like?
Try the audio sample above. The bundled voices cover English (American and British), Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, and Portuguese.
Which devices does Narraloud run on?
iPhone and iPad, on iOS 18 or later. One download covers both, and your library stays on the device you read from.
Is Narraloud really free?
Yes. Download it and press play, no account and no credits. The standard voices, every format, and unlimited in-app listening are all free. Plus adds background listening and the power tools below.
What does Narraloud Plus include?
Keep listening with the screen locked or another app open. Export a chapter or a whole document as audio, and add pronunciations for names and jargon.
Plus also includes document enrichment, full-length X post imports, the full catalog of system voices for VoiceOver and other apps, and alternate app icons. Standard voices inside Narraloud are free.
Document enrichment depends on the on-device models available on your device. Open the Plus screen in the app for plans.
