Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to read and listen together?

It means hearing text-to-speech narration while the same written material remains visible. With synchronized highlighting, you can follow the current words as they are spoken.

Does reading while listening improve comprehension?

Not for everyone or in every situation. Research findings are mixed, so Readify does not promise better comprehension. It gives you audio, text, highlighting, and pace controls so you can decide what works for the material.

Do the spoken words stay synchronized with the text?

Yes. Readify highlights the text being spoken, helping you connect the narration to its current location in the source.

Can I listen without watching the text?

Yes. You can follow every word, look away and listen, or move between audio and text whenever you want.

Can I use Readify for language learning?

You can use the voice, speed, highlighting, pause, and replay controls to hear and see the same text. Readify does not guarantee language-learning outcomes.

What files can I read and listen to?

Readify supports EPUB, PDF, DOCX, AZW, MOBI, and TXT files, plus compatible web content through the browser extension.

Is Readify free to try?

Yes. Readify is free to start, so you can try synchronized reading and listening with your own compatible file or readable webpage.
