Inspect the APK

Have this app's APK or XAPK file? Upload it to see the ad & analytics SDKs it bundles, a hidden home-screen launcher or accessibility access, the AdMob app id, and the full permission list — read straight from the file, nothing installed.

Full description

Scan to Speech turns printed text into speech. Point your camera at a page, a sign, a label or a menu, and the app reads it out loud. Made for anyone who would rather listen than read: • Low vision — enlarge nothing, just listen • Dyslexia and reading fatigue — follow along line by line • Language learners — hear how the text actually sounds • Hands busy — listen to a document while you do something else WHAT IT DOES • Scan printed text with the camera or from a photo in your gallery • Recognises Latin, Chinese, Japanese and Korean script • Reads the text aloud, line by line, with repeat and loop • Adjust speaking speed and pitch to suit you • Type or paste text in directly when there is nothing to scan • Keeps a history of everything you have scanned • Playback continues in the background Speech uses the text-to-speech voices already installed on your device, so the languages available depend on your device settings.

What's new

• Text recognition now reads Chinese, Japanese and Korean — choose the script before you scan • The app is now translated into 17 languages, and you can pick one per app in Android settings • Preview a voice in Settings before you start reading • Scanning no longer needs access to your whole photo library • Faster start-up, and playback keeps running in the background • Dark mode and layout fixes throughout
