Speechify Reviews in May 2025: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Clicked on a YouTube ad and signed up

Clicked on a YouTube ad and signed up. Pricing indicated that I could do monthly subscription after my 7 free day trial. But after my trial ended they charged me for an annual subscription and they said monthly subscriptions never existed. I know I am not delusional and I wouldn't have subscribed knowing they would charge me $139 USD for the full year for a PDF reader. Customer support wasn't even understanding and as a broke student they made my situation even worse. Awful team and ...

Worst purchase I have made all year!!!!!

They offered me a 3-day trial but cleverly did not show the details of subscription cost then hit me with a giant 107.00 subscription fee 2 days before my rent was due. decided that I should stomach the cost as perhaps I might find the software useful in my studies .....nope ... it skips large portions of text keeps telling me to upgrade if I want to use the human non-robotic voices (am I some kinda idiot?) and then on top of that the voice keeps switching and the from one voice to another ...

DO NOT PURCHASE.

DO NOT PURCHASE.This business is shady as hell! they charged me 140 dollars before telling me how much it was actually going to be. I regret not looking at the reviews before purchasing because if I did I would have stayed away. It really is such a shame, too, because the idea for the extension really is a great one, but it's too bad it is almost ruined by this company's shady business. I'm highly dissatisfied and will not be renewing my subscription in a year when the subscription for what ...

dont reply and took £107

Downloaded, won't work well or at all. Tried to get in contact to cancel, they replied too late, now they've taken £107 and won't reply to any of my messages or refund me. Avoid !!

Nope

I downloaded the app for the free trial because the app sounds life-changing. If only it worked...It has been "processing...0%" for almost half an hour now, for both my own document and the "why I built speechify" document. Garbage.

Great app!

I love this app because it saves me a lot of time. I have it installed on my phone and on my laptop. Whenever I want to read web articles and pdfs, I just used the app even when I am on the go. I can even select the voice of my fave celebrity, Gwyneth Paltrow. How cool is that!I would love for it to have more subscription options though so I can better afford it. :)

AWESOME APP!

This app is super worth every penny! 🙌🏻 Great for multitaskers like me. Thank you so much, Speechify!

Great App. Really enjoyed listening while doing something else. Multitasking at its finest. HD words are superb, some articles felt they are alive. Wwwooosssshhh!!!!! Great job Speechify!

Life changing!

My eyes dry and tire easily and when I learned and tried Speechify it has changed the way I do my daily readings. I have been able to read/listen to more books than I used to. I couldn't imagine a day without this technology. It has helped me tremendously. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
