When I was a kid, I had a lot of patience and I used to spend a wonderful time reading books. My interests started from fictional books and then expanded to non-fictional, biographies etc. But, as I continued my path towards the internet era, I, just like all other kids, started growing a short attention span and the reader in me died eventually. The more I tried to read books, the more I got distracted by overwhelming amount of media content, dramatic events around the globe (e.g. pandemic) etc. Even though my age did not play well with me, I realized I needed a solution that will keep me focused while I am reading books. Enters DocSpeech, an app that uses state of the art artificial intelligence to be my reading assistant while I am reading any document, be it a book or pdf. Basically, its a text to speech (TTS) engine for books but it also highlights the words you are reading in real time. The next thought that automatically emerges to your mind is, “Meh, I’ve seen a lot of apps like these. The voices sound robotic in these apps.” As luck would have it, the voice in DocSpeech sounds just like a human and works fully offline. Another motivative role it plays is that it shows the time remaining to finish my book. After I started using this app, it literally made me intensely focused while I am reading. And after a few hours of reading, I just tuned the voice speed to be 2x and suddenly I realized I can finish reading a book in half the time. This is an amazing experience; you would need to try it out to see what I am talking about. Its free for the first 7 days, no sign ups necessary, and its also super cheap after the trial ends. Honestly, it changed the way I read now and I can consume 2x contents with the help of this reading assistant. You can download it for free at https://play.google.com/store/ap....
