PageEcho: on iPhone Duo, a book you can read and hear

PageEcho reads any text aloud in natural voices: books, PDFs, academic papers, web articles and notes. Everything, including speech synthesis, translation and AI summaries, runs on the iPhone or iPad. There are no accounts, no servers and no analytics.

Made for iPhone Duo

Closed, PageEcho reads aloud on the outer display so you can listen on the go. Unfold it and the same page becomes a two-page spread across the fold, with a page curl that follows your finger, margins that stay clear of the fold and controls on a side rail.

Why it matters

People read in many places: an e-book here, a PDF there, articles in the browser, papers from arXiv. Listening usually means sending that text to a cloud service. PageEcho brings all of it into one private library and reads it aloud with natural neural voices that work offline, on a plane or in the subway.

  • Hear any text. Sentence highlighting follows the voice, any sentence is a starting point, and playback continues in the background with lock-screen controls and a sleep timer.
  • Understand it. Apple Translation shows a book side by side with its translation. Apple Foundation Models write chapter summaries, answer questions with citations from your own library and draw mind maps.
  • Keep it private, and prove it. A Network Transparency screen in the app lists every network destination, and a public guide shows how to check it with a proxy.
  • Read comfortably. VoiceOver across the reader, Dynamic Type, an e-ink theme and, on iPhone Duo, a two-page book across the fold.

December in-app event: Your Year in Reading

From December 1 to 31, readers look back on their year: books finished, time spent reading and listening, and their longest streak, turned into a card they can share. PageEcho keeps no accounts and no server data, so the review is computed only on the reader's device.

New in 1.5

  • iPhone Duo: a two-page spread, a layout that respects the fold, and bars on the side.
  • A VoiceOver and low-vision pass across the reader, player, library and settings.
  • A page curl that follows your finger.
  • The app and its App Store page in 11 languages.
  • More reliable downloads for the Qwen3 and MOSS voices.
