COMMENTS:
“I
just wanted to express my thanks for your wonderful app. I am an academic
researcher who has A.D.H.D., and @Voice has been amazingly helpful to me. (…)
In my case, ADHD manifests with challenges in concentration and focus. When I
read on the page, I frequently find myself having to re-read sentences,
paragraphs or entire passages upon realizing that I had "zoned out"
while reading. (…) these problems are resolved when I use @Voice to
"read" written work. The TTS format keeps me on track, because even
if I get distracted while listening, the speech continues and I am able to quickly
return to the author's overall train of thought. And, thanks to the intuitive
interface of @voice aloud (especially the highlighting function) it is easy to
back-track if necessary. (…)So, @voice has truly improved my life and
prospects. I estimate that your app allows me to read about 10-12 times more
than I would otherwise have been able to read, and has certainly improved my
ability to edit my own work.”
