As a dad with a 12-year-old who is essentially unable to read due to a genetic condition that causes significant learning issues, this seems like a nice addition.
However, the functionality already exists in iOS in the form of Speak Screen which is easily invoked by pulling down with two fingers (when configured in Accessibility). My daughter uses that to "read" content in nearly every app she uses whether it's the MLB app or news apps.
Kudos for bringing something like this to the table, but it seems Apple has it covered at the OS level already.
