Every time I try to open a book, it won’t play even the ones that say is 0.00. All I get is a Preview reminding me to download a PDF. And the screen that pops up it says I can try it Free but then it’s 99.99 Perhaps it’s operator error.
I just downloaded it and i already love it. Only got one request. I got a bunch of books in my apple books. Most of them are off free websites and most my pdfs are on there as well. Can you please make it where the book will upload to eleven reader? I have so many books id like to listen to while working!!! Please. Thanks.
I didn’t think I had to pay for this product and yet there is a few days trial and then bam, $99 annual fee. You all need to be honest with your advertising!
okay, when I first downloaded this app, I was honestly irritated. Because of my reading disability, I had already gone through 4–5 different read-aloud apps just trying to find one that actually worked. every single time, the natural sounding AI voices were locked behind an expensive paywall, making it even harder for people with disabilities to access something as basic as reading and learning. BUT BOY WAS I SO WRONG ABOUT ELEVENREADER ITS ACTUALLY FREE???!seriously, don't listen to those other read aloud apps charging $20–30 a month just to unlock decent AI voices. ElevenReader gives you high quality, natural sounding voices without putting them behind a paywall, and it has made such a huge difference for me. it’s helped me understand what I'm reading, stay focused, and actually enjoy learning again. and honestly? the paid subscription is reasonably priced too. I'm genuinely considering subscribing not because I have to, but because I want to support the developers for making an app that's truly accessible instead of treating accessibility like a premium feature. Thank you for making something that people like me can actually use.
I love the new features that are added, but it does seem like each update introduces weird new bugs that make using it hard at times. Latest issue is fast forwarding sometimes randomly jumps playback to some random point far earlier.
I pay for this app just to get violations on Books that have nothing to do with the violations I’m getting (child safety) I even made another account to get rid of the violations, but it says on a completely different fiction book. I don’t recommend this if you read fiction romance books it just makes you feel icky when you get a violation like that!
Love the scan to read option, but all the books are expensive just to buy for one lesson so if you have a book and you don’t feel like reading it scan it and listen to it
Why I can’t sign in? Email or Apple ID neither.
I love this app & use it everyday. The only missing piece is carplay support.
It gets annoying that I have to take a picture of each and every page and the AI still gets some words wrong but it’s still a good reading app
