If you are an active person and spend a good part of your time traveling, driving or walking, but at the same time you are an avid reader, or you only feel the need for a constant flow of information, you've surely missed a good read while on the go. To reach a consensus, Audio Reader XL 2019 is a neat tool that can transform a text file into speech, and it can give you a helping hand.

At startup, the app offers you several choices. Two of them are going to heavily used as one is "Create New Projects," and moves you to the manual text input, and the Other is "Open Project," which let you continue what have you started in the past.

After the first option was picked, you can notice a blank page. To fill in the page, you can manually write the info, or you can use the "Open Text" button to a text/PDF file. After the text is on the screen, hit "Read out" to start the speech.

You can change the text at any time as this does not impact the final MP3 creation, so feel free to experiment.

Besides English, the app also has Russian, German and Spanish voice effects. Also, for every language, you can swap between the genders, if you want a male or female voice.

The English voices are well created and polished, almost as a real person is reading the sentences. On the flip side, the other three languages have a robot accent in their voices, similar to Google voice, which can turn out annoying for some users.

If you are happy with the readings and want to create an audio file to use it on the move, simply hit "Create MP3," and the app quickly converts the text. The files can then be uploaded on the phone, or any portable device and enjoyed.

TO sum it up, Audio Reader XL 2019 is a handy tool for users that prefer to listen to their info, rather than read it, or for readers that don't have enough time to do it. It smoothly read (for English) any text you feed it, and it then creates an MP3 in order to make it portable.
