Speech Central includes full support for both ePub 2 and ePub 3 formats, making it easy to listen to your personal eBook collection with high-quality, natural-sounding voices. Whether it’s literature, textbooks, or technical manuals, Speech Central transforms your reading into a seamless audio experience.
Your Library, Your Way
Open any DRM-free ePub file—no matter where it comes from—and start listening immediately. Unlike audiobook platforms tied to specific catalogs, Speech Central gives you complete freedom to bring and enjoy your own content.
Smarter Listening with Built-In Intelligence
Speech Central intelligently parses ePub content for smooth playback. In certain books, especially academic ones, it can automatically skip over citations to help maintain a focused listening experience.
ePub 3: Accessibility at Its Best
Speech Central’s support for ePub 3 leverages the latest in accessibility technology. ePub 3 is widely recognized as the leading format for accessible digital publishing. Even the DAISY Consortium—known for its own accessible format—has identified ePub 3 as the path forward for inclusive reading.
Listen Anywhere, on Any Apple Device
Speech Central works across iOS, macOS, and watchOS, offering a consistent experience whether you’re on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple Watch. Your reading position is synced automatically across your Apple devices, so you can pick up right where you left off.
Direct Access Without Conversion
No need to convert your eBooks into another format. Open your ePub files directly from your device, cloud storage, or other apps—and start listening in seconds.
Inclusive and Effortless Reading
Speech Central is built with accessibility in mind. Whether you have a visual impairment, reading difficulty, or simply prefer listening, support for ePub 2 and 3 means your content is always within reach—on your terms.
Bring Your Books to Life
Load up your favorite ePub titles and let Speech Central read them aloud with clarity and context. It’s the smart way to experience books hands-free, eyes-free, and fully focused.
