Introduction
Peech turns written material into narrated audio that follows the structure of the document. It reads a file before narrating, so headings are announced, headers and page numbers are skipped, quotations shift to a second voice, and a line written in another language is read in that language. You can import PDFs, EPUBs, DOCX, PPTX, text files, emails, saved web pages, photos of printed text, and scans, then listen in the web app, on iPhone or iPad, on Android, or through the Chrome extension. The app is built for people who have more to read than time to read it.

FAQ
What file types can I import?
Peech accepts PDF, EPUB, DOCX, PPTX, TXT, email, saved web pages, photos of printed text, and pure scans. Ebooks you already own are supported as well, according to the site.
Does Peech read scanned documents?
Yes. Peech lists scans and photos of printed text as supported inputs, and its narration is designed to skip scan artifacts such as running headers and page numbers.
Can I follow along with the text?
Yes. Peech can highlight the sentence as it is spoken, offers a dyslexia-friendly font, and lets you set your own pace.
Does it handle multiple languages?
Peech reads documents in many languages and switches language inside a document, so a German quotation in an English paper is narrated as German.
Can I change the narrator mid-book?
Yes. You can swap the narrator partway through a chapter and Peech keeps your place, so you can compare styles or match a voice to the material.
Is there a free trial?
Peech subscription terms say a free trial may be offered and explain how it renews if it is not cancelled. Check the app for the trial and plan terms that apply to your store or region.
