Text-to-Speech Feature
If you're looking for a way to hear your text instead of just reading it, yRead has got you covered! Just click a button and listen as Microsoft Anna reads your words out loud. You can even change how fast she talks or pause her anytime. And if you want to make things easier on your eyes, there's an option to adjust the font size.
Ebook Search Tool
If you're on the hunt for ebooks from Project Gutenberg, simply enter a keyword in yRead's search bar. You'll get a list of results showing titles, URLs, and file names for each book. With just one click, you can download them! However, during our tests, we found that this feature didn't work as expected.
