DocuMeowAn ebook reader that listens back
Listen to any book.
Ask it anything.
DocuMeow reads your ebooks and PDFs aloud in a calm, natural voice. When a line makes you wonder, just ask. It answers out loud, looks things up, highlights the passage, and picks up right where you left off.
Free for 7 days, then $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year.
A reader, a narrator, and a study partner
Everything you expect from a good ebook app, plus a voice that reads to you and a companion you can interrupt.
Narration that sounds human
Whole paragraphs read with natural pauses, in nine languages. Speed up to 3× and every word stays clear.
Hold to ask
Interrupt any time. Ask what a word means, who a character is, or what the author is getting at. The answer is spoken back in seconds.
Looks things up for you
When the book isn't enough, DocuMeow searches the web and shows its sources, so you can check them later.
Highlights by voice
Say “highlight that” or “make a note” without touching the screen. Find everything later in Notes, or export it as Markdown.
PDFs made phone-friendly
Scanned or text PDFs are turned into clean, reflowable pages you can read on a small screen and listen to.
All your books
EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, FB2, CBZ, TXT and PDF. Themes, fonts, bookmarks, search and highlights, all where you expect them.
How it works
No setup, no API keys, nothing to configure.
Add a book
Import an ebook or a PDF from Files, a download, or any app that shares documents.
Press play
Pick a voice and a speed. Read along with the current sentence highlighted, or put the phone away and just listen.
Ask when you wonder
Hold the button and talk. DocuMeow pauses, answers, and goes back to reading when you're done.
Like listening to an audiobook with a patient, well-read friend sitting next to you.

Questions
When can I download it?
DocuMeow is in final testing for iPhone and Android. It will appear in the App Store and Google Play soon.
Which languages does it read?
English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese and Russian, each with a choice of voices. You can ask questions in any of them.
Where do the books come from?
You bring your own. DocuMeow opens DRM-free files you already have; it doesn't sell books.
Do I need an internet connection?
Narration and questions are generated on our servers, so they need a connection. Audio you've already listened to is cached on your device.
What happens to my books and questions?
They're used only to read to you and answer you. We don't sell your data or show ads, and you can delete your account and everything in it from Settings. See the Privacy Policy.
How do I cancel?
Subscriptions are managed by Apple or Google. Cancel in your App Store or Google Play subscription settings at least 24 hours before renewal.
