Frequently Asked Questions
After converting text to audio, Audioread generates a unique RSS feed URL for your content. You'll need to copy this URL from your Audioread account and manually add it as a private podcast feed within your chosen podcast app's settings. Instructions for adding custom feeds vary slightly between apps, so consult your podcast app's help documentation for specific steps.
Yes, any audio files you've downloaded from Audioread before canceling your subscription will remain accessible on your device. However, you will lose access to the Audioread platform itself, including the ability to convert new text to audio or manage your existing library within the Audioread interface.
The Audioread browser extension is designed to work on most websites with selectable text. However, it may encounter difficulties with content embedded within images, Flash-based websites, or sites that heavily restrict text selection. For optimal results, ensure the text is selectable and not part of a graphic.
Audioread primarily supports PDF and DOCX files for direct upload and conversion. While other text-based file formats may work, PDF and DOCX offer the best compatibility and ensure accurate text extraction for optimal audio conversion. Be sure your document contains selectable text for accurate processing.
While the free trial of Audioread offers a selection of AI voices, access to the full range of ultra-realistic AI voices is typically reserved for paid subscribers. The trial version allows you to experience the core functionality of Audioread, but you may need to upgrade to unlock all voice options.
