Turn a photo or screenshot into speech
Sometimes the text you want to hear isn't text at all. It might be a screenshot of a post, a photo of a printed page, or a sign or menu.
SideReader pulls the words out of the image on your phone, then reads them aloud.

On-device text reading
The text is read from the image on your phone, and the free voices also run on your phone. There are no ads, no accounts, and no analytics.
Better photos, better results
Use good light, keep the page flat, and fill the frame with the text. Clean screenshots usually work best.
