HushBook: Audiobook Read Along

Your mind wanders, and the narrator keeps going. HushBook turns audiobooks and ebooks into word-by-word karaoke. Read while listening, and never lose your place.

Add an audiobook you own and HushBook transcribes it on your iPhone or iPad. That part is free, for every book. Have the ebook too? Add it, and the page follows the narrator.

Your audio never goes to a cloud service, and there's no account to make.
