2 min read Always free

Text-to-speech reads words out loud to you. Your device says the words on the screen.

It helps if your eyes are tired. It also helps if reading on a screen feels hard.

Many phones and computers have this built in. You can turn it on in your settings.

Listening can be a nice break. There is no shame in using it.

Try this
  1. Open the settings on your phone or computer.
  2. Look for words like Accessibility or Spoken Content.
  3. Turn on the read aloud option.
  4. Try it on a page of text to hear how it sounds.
