    I love VoiceDream. Long time user. Unfortunately, latest version is crashing on my devices too. Please fix soon VD. Love your app to much to not be useable right now.

    They hit me with a $79.99 yearly subscription fee and as soon as I saw it I panicked to cancel it and I guess they have it so that ur subscription auto cancels the features and you won’t even get to use the premium features they sneakily charged you for that is absolutely a crazy amount to charge someone in that way and you don’t know how predatory it is and now I can’t even use the app as intended I was just going to try and use it up but now I can’t

  • Impossible to use

    There is no backspace. Like you get to a menu that you don’t wanna be in … you just have to close the whole thing down? You can’t copy and paste text? Who designed this thing? What did you design it for? Definitely not human beings.

    Spent an hour scanning a book into this only for the app to freeze and the whole thing to delete.
  • Not "Free"

    Requires a free trial subscription just to use TTS features in the first place. You would have better luck using their free voices (which are sourced from other services like Amazon or Microsoft) though a webpage in your phones browser.

    It immediately told me that I had no subscription, I literally just downloaded the app……
  • Why am I being charged a subscription for access to voices I already paid to download two years ago?

    What happened to this app? I opened it on Sunday and cannot access the voice I’ve already purchased and been listening to for years. Now it is prompting me to pay monthly/yearly for something I already paid for once! The voices themselves have also changed - my favorite AI voice now slurs its speech and mumbles at various points. Sorry but this is a scam if I am being double charged for the same access. Didn’t they already try this stunt last year and walked it back because they were reprimanded by Apple for violating terms of service? I want my previously paid-for content back!
  • Works great, just one bug

    I’ve been using Voice Dream for almost a decade. It’s pretty solid for text to speech and has plenty of features. I spend a lot of time driving and it’s great for reading long documents. There’s just one problem. In 2019, it started defaulting to German for documents that I load into it. These files are in English. I reached out to support and they said there’s no way to choose a default or preferred language. That seemed very strange to me. They said they were going to look into it and never responded. After all these years, I was hoping an update would fix it, but even the most recent 2025 update hasn’t fixed it. Aside from having to change the language back to English, manually, every single time, I still use the Voice Dream Reader app regularly.
