What you can read
Four ways to get text into the app. All of them work without an internet connection.
Photos and screenshots
Choose any picture that contains text.
PDFs and files
Open a PDF, an image or a text file. Scanned PDFs work too.
Any text
Type it, paste it, or share it to the app from another app.
How it reads
Built for people with dyslexia or low vision, for students and language learners, and for anyone who would rather listen.
Follow every word
Each word is highlighted as it is spoken. Tap any paragraph to start from there.
Your speed, your size
Slow the voice down or speed it up, from half speed to double speed, and make the text larger or smaller.
Keeps reading
Listen with the screen off, with play, pause and skip controls on the lock screen and on headphones.
Private by design
Many reading apps send your pages to a server to recognize the text or to create the voice. Read Aloud For Me does both on the tablet.
That makes it a good fit for letters, schoolwork and anything else you would rather keep to yourself.

Which voices does it use?
It uses the text-to-speech voices installed on your Fire tablet, and picks one that matches the language of the text. You can add or change voices in your tablet's text-to-speech settings.
Does it need the internet?
No. Text recognition and speech run on the tablet, so it works on a plane, in a car or anywhere without Wi-Fi.
Is anything I scan uploaded?
No. Your pages, photos and documents stay on your tablet. There is no account and no sign-in.
Are there ads or extra purchases?
No. There are no ads and no in-app purchases.
Which languages can it read?
Text recognition works with languages written in the Latin alphabet, such as English, French, Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese. Reading aloud depends on the voices installed on your tablet. The app's menus are in English and French.
Is it the same as the iPad, Android and Windows versions?
It is the same reader, built for Fire tablets. On a Fire tablet you photograph one page at a time with the tablet's camera.
