- Justin Purselley
- great for those suffering from ADHD who cant find the drive to read without getting lost in the words.
- shina sharma
- Love it, the only limitation is it works on the webpages. It should be working on the text documents like Docs and PDFs, too. bcz sometimes the Read Aloud function is not working properly. This additional download should be worth keeping for all types of text files too. All the best, team! Thank you!
- laura Coleman
- robotic voice is annoying as i cant afford to pay a subscription as a student but with the long PDF files i am required to read i quickly lose focus until I can read along with a voice reading to me is great for keeping my focus and i find that i am getting through work a lot quicker
- Red Emano
- love it. i used to see this in facebook but decided not to consider at first because their ads were not convincing or seem, 'fake' . lol but i realized it might help in law studies here in the Philippines. so tried it out and wow this is amazing. i used to use microsoft edge in reading, but their app is a lot better. voices sound a lot nicer. and experience seems smoother.... but just that it is expensive a bit?hope you can give educational discount or adjust it to be more philippine and student friendly! thanks! it helps!
- Dmitri and Katya Naiman
- I use a free account for now. Even though the robotic voice is irritating, this software helps me get through my readings of online sources and allows uploads of PDFs. Sometimes, I also take pictures of a books and the program reads them for me. It is great for my university studies.

- Melanie H
- this extension is extremely useful to me and is not too limited in the free version which i appreciate a lot.
- Chihiro Williams
- It is great for reading English materials. I recommend it to my students. However, it is not good enough to use for reading Japanese materials. It reads Kanji wrong, and it has wrong accents. I hope it will get better soon so that I can use it for my class. I give 5 stars for English, but 1 star for Japanese.
- Evan Massaro

- Ange McKenzie
- This app makes my life so much easier. A large component of my job and my studies, is reading lengthy documents. I have speechify on my phone and my laptop and I use it all the time. I'll often read along with it, but there are times where I also workout whilst just listening. I love that you can choose who reads, as well as adjust the speed and the option to speed up as you move along is genius. My all time favourite app.
- Lauren Segovia (PiggyO3O)
- Speechify has become a great way for me to store and listen to readings I download from Google Drive. It keeps my place reliably, which makes jumping back in effortless. I almost don’t need Audible anymore. The Pro subscription is absolutely worth it, especially for school. The range of voices and languages is impressive, and the diversity really stands out. I genuinely appreciate how many options there are and how accessible it makes reading.
- Aayan Rahman
- The product is great, but it constantly becomes corrupted or broken and needs repairing and re-logging in to the Speechify account on Microsoft Edge. It is becoming a nuisance.
- Rounak Joshi
- I always wanted to build a habit of reading but I couldn't stay consistent and focused while reading. Speechify helps me to make this habit fun by reading and listening at the same time. Now reading doesn't feel a boring work. It's worth spending time and money in Speechify
- Logan Hayes
- NOT AT ALL FREE - TOTAL SCAM IMMEDIATE PAYWALL
- Lisa Rivera
- Helps me so much with all the graduate reading I have online!
- ANA HERNANDEZ
- excellent and easy to use
- I pwned U I pwned U
- It has a lot of great features, but it now requires you to create and account to use it, and many of the features are paywalled. Now that the latest Chrome update has a new and improved reading mode that supports text to speech, I no longer need this extension, so I have uninstalled it.
- Donna Chen
- I have difficulty focusing and retaining information when reading, and Speechify has helped in so many ways by taking the reading out of it and allowing me to focus on following along and actually understanding what I'm learning.
- Ryan Abdella
- so good am retarded so this is so helpful. where was this when i was struggling years ago T.T
- wael ismail
- excellent tool that helped me a lot, I find it very helpful. I can listen while doing other things
- Dianna Bravo
- Multiple learning disabilities helps comprehension and retention of information. Brain injury and challenges with focus and eye strain also helped by this service. Thank you!
- Ryan Grover
- Its very helpful with schoolwork and alot of reading to help absorb the content. The quality of software and ease of use is very good.
- Marco Garzozi
- As english is not my first language and the fact that I live with ADD, Speechify is a life saver for me. My only criticism is that they did not create it 20 years earlier, while I was a young Med student and had to spend 15 hours a day reading and than just collapse out of exhaustion.
- Shaun Dicker
- It helps me focus and absorb content at a measured pace.
- Carlos Jimenez
- its very helpful with school work
- Christina Malone
- Speechify is my saving grace. It's a subscription I HAPPILY pay for. I don't hate reading... but textbooks can be SO boring! Listening to them helps me absorb more of the information (while I color on my app to keep my hands busy and stay awake late into the night when I finally have the time for homework).
- Robert Whitfield
- This a great tool.
- Adam M
- Excellent!
