Hearem: Text to Speech Reader

Turn the text you want to read into audio you can take anywhere.
Listen to articles, research papers, long reads, and saved stories while you walk, commute, or simply give your eyes a rest.

Hearem brings Apple on-device voices and expressive AI voices together in one quiet, focused space. Bring your own reading, choose a voice that feels right, and listen at your own pace.

BRING YOUR OWN READING
• Supports popular formats: PDF, EPUB, Word (DOC/DOCX), TXT, Markdown, and RTF.
• Paste web links to extract clean article text, or capture text from photos and book pages.
• Paste or type text directly. All books, articles, and documents are supplied and managed by you.

LISTEN & LEARN ACROSS LANGUAGES
• Listen in multiple languages and natural accents for news, literature, and listening practice.
• Translate text before listening to support bilingual comprehension and language learning.
• Explore diverse voice providers to find the most fitting tone for every piece of writing.

LISTEN DEEPLY, AT YOUR OWN PACE
• Stream as it Generates: Begin listening right away without waiting for the entire document to finish processing.
• Background & Lock-Screen Audio: Adjust speed from 0.5x to 2.0x; enjoy uninterrupted listening with automatic progress memory.
• Pacing & Custom Pauses: Insert pauses between paragraphs or sections to give your listening breathing room and time to reflect.
• Magic Editor: Summarize key takeaways, organize sections, or translate text before you listen.

FIND A VOICE YOU LOVE
• Audition & Save Favorites: From calm, everyday narration to warm, expressive storytelling voices.
• Voice Cloning: Create a natural clone from an audio sample you own or have explicit permission to use, then have it read your text (cloning uses separate credits).
• Tailored Settings: Finely tune speed, and depending on the voice provider, adjust pitch or emotion.

OFFLINE LISTENING & AUDIO EXPORT
• Listen Offline: Replay saved audio anytime without an internet connection; Apple on-device voices can read completely offline once downloaded.
• Audio & Subtitle Export: With a premium subscription, export your generated audio and available subtitles to keep or share.
• Online AI voice generation requires an active internet connection.

MOMENTS FOR LISTENING
• Study & Research: Turn academic papers, lecture notes, and textbook chapters into your personal podcast on the go.
• Language Practice: Train your ears with authentic accents and natural cadence.
• Give Your Eyes a Rest: Step away from screens during walks, chores, workouts, or quiet evenings.

TRANSPARENT ACCESS & PRICING
• Free to Start: Apple on-device voices do not consume AI character limits; online AI voices include complimentary starting allowances.
• Premium Access: A premium subscription includes expanded AI allowances and audio/subtitle export. Optional top-ups add usage credits. Voice cloning uses separate credits.
• Current feature allowances, tiers, and local pricing are clearly detailed inside the app.

PRIVACY
Apple speech synthesis runs locally on your device. For online speech, translation, OCR, or document parsing, only the text necessary to fulfill that feature is sent to the respective service. See our privacy policy for complete details.
