Alreader is (and has always been) a great basic ereader app for several formats of printed materials and images and is also Android Google text-to-speech capable. Have been using for years on different Android version devices (phones & tablets). An English translation of user's manual for easier access to all of app's capabilities would be nice. (Apologies if one is available that I have not found). If so, where is it located?

Not the easiest to learn at first, and scrolling isn't smooth, but the selling point of the TTS is pretty great. It doesn't sound like a human, but rarely any words are mispronounced, even most made-up words and names, and spacing between words is quite natural. It speaks clearly and words sound even, like they're actually being said as a sentence or full word rather than individual syllables. I use this to read to me before bed when I'm trying not to look at a screen, pretty good so far.

Great reader. I have used a couple diffrent readers. But this one is the best. The ability to change styles and fonts is well made, easy to understand. Love the text to read option. It uses google text. Easy to understand. Like a loved one reading you to sleep. So many diffrent options, still very easy 2 use. Never asked for money, no ads. Just a free gift from a great programmer. Thank you.

I'm a reader not a gamer. I love that ALReader's interface is so customizable. Makes it possible to read books faster than I could reading the paper book. I have over 1500 epub & mobi files and I'm constantly adding more. ALReader is my go-to for reading on my phone. The TTS feature lets me listen to a book while commuting to and from work. No trees died for my books! I've been using AL Reader for three years now without a single glitch across four different phones and several updates. Keep up the great work Mr Neverland!!!

Exactly as described: a lightweight, useful, ad-free app for reading documents of many kinds, including types not read by most programs. The ability to change brightness and switch between dark or light background make it easy to ensure readability in a variety of conditions. I wish I could edit rich text files with it, but that's not the advertised purpose so I can't hold the lack against it. I've downloaded the app on every phone I've had since discovering it, and find it invaluable!

I like this ebook reader significantly more than any other that I've tried. You have so much more control over the look and feel of the display. The text-to-speech is good, though it does mispronounce some words. "Dr." is always spoken as "Drive," when it should be "Doctor." I'd give it a '5' if hitting 'pause' on my headphones paused and restarted the TTS, but it kills the program. You can set up 9 different "tap zones," one of which I've set to begin text-to-speech, others to navigate.
