Don't want to read things yourself?

With Copy To Read - Text to Speech, simply copy some text, then listen as the text you copied is read back to you through text to speech. This text reading app can read text from any app, as long as the app grants you the ability to copy the text that you want spoken. It couldn't be any easier to have text spoken aloud to you. No need to import text into an app to have it read to you. While the text is being read to you, a notification will be displayed that you can tap on to stop reading at any time or tap the pause button to pause reading. You can also click the skip forward and backward buttons on the notification to skip through sentences within the text you copied. So no need to worry about accidentally copying text that you don't want to be spoken to you through text to speech.

How to use Copy To Read - Text to Speech?

Option 1 (Android 4.1+):
1. Start the Copy To Read Service (flip the toggle switch in the app or use the widget)
2. Copy some text to your clipboard (from any app)
3. Sit back and listen as the text you copied is read out loud by your phone to you

Option 2 (Android 6.0+) - Using a floating "Speak" button like in iOS:
1. Highlight some text by holding your finger down on it (from within any app)
2. Tap the "Speak" button within the floating menu (the menu that contains the copy button)
3. Sit back and listen as the text you highlighted is read out loud by your phone to you
- Note: this method only supports reading text up to 1000 characters long due to a limitation in the Android framework. Sorry.
