Best-in-Class Features
Every app has its strengths and weaknesses, but when it comes to the overall feature set, Speech Central stands out as the clear leader.
To back this up, we compared over 100 features across the three most advanced text-to-speech apps available. See how Speech Central measures up for yourself.
Ultimate Value
The app is completely free on iOS and Android, with all features unlocked for users who consume a small amount of content. To enjoy unlimited access, there’s a one-time purchase on each platform—no subscriptions, no hidden fees. Our price is significantly lower than the competition.
Make It Yours
With over 80 settings and customization options, no other voice reader app offers the level of personalization that Speech Central does.
11 Years of Development
Each day at least some improvement is being made. Through years thousands of features have been shipped with hundreds of new versions pushed. And it still goes on.
Built for Privacy
Speech Central’s long-term goal is to eliminate any data collection. This has already been fully achieved on iOS and macOS. On Android and Windows, only minimal anonymous data is currently collected—and even that is planned to be phased out completely.
On Your Device
Covers more platforms than any other app. Get it on iPhone or iPad, Android (phone or tablet), Mac (Apple Silicon M1-M4 or Intel) and Windows!
Join the Cause
We offer completely free access to Speech Central on iOS and Android for people who are blind and use VoiceOver or TalkBack. Further, on the iOS app is completely free when deployed with Apple School Manager as a managed app.
By choosing Speech central, you’re supporting and contributing to this meaningful initiative.
