What it does

Plenty of visitors would rather listen than read, and some can't comfortably read long text at all. Speaker adds an audio version of your written content so people with visual impairments or reading difficulties, busy readers and listeners on the go can take in your pages. It works with pages, posts, custom post types and WooCommerce product descriptions, so one tool covers most of the text on a typical site.

Setup needs no coding. Once it is in place, you pick from several text-to-speech voices, set the language or regional accent, and adjust speed, pitch and volume to suit your audience. Visitors use play, pause and stop controls, and you can customize those controls and decide where the player appears. The player works on desktops, tablets and phones, and playback controls can also show on the mobile lock screen.

Best for

Blogs and news sites with long written articles
Educational sites that want listenable lessons
Sites improving access for visually impaired readers
