What’s new in Local TTS

Each entry below is the release note published on the App Store for that version, not a rewrite. The App Store listing always shows the current version — this page keeps the ones before it.

  1. 2.2

    The reading view got a major upgrade:

    • Aa reading options — choose your font and text size, with 4 bundled Korean typefaces
    • Immersive mode — the toolbar and player tuck away while you listen; pin the player to keep it
    • Search in documents, jump via the PDF table of contents, select text, and pick up right where you left off
    • Sharper highlighting — sentence by sentence in PDFs, word highlights in sync with the voice
    • More natural narration — better reading of dates, units, currency, and Roman numerals; fixed words split across line breaks
    • Faster, lighter speech engine optimized for the Apple Neural Engine
    • Performance improvements and bug fixes
  2. 2.1

    Turn almost anything into natural audio:

    • Read PDF, EPUB, and Word (DOCX) files — import books, reports, and study notes
    • Scan printed pages with the camera and start listening, no retyping
    • Listen from images — pick a screenshot or photo and on-device OCR makes it readable
    • Free multilingual voice — read all 31 languages, now on the free plan too
    • Performance improvements and bug fixes
  3. 2.0

    • 31 languages with a natural multilingual voice (Pro)
    • Background playback with lock screen and Control Center controls
    • Pick a different voice for each note
    • Organize your notes with tags
    • Performance improvements and bug fixes
