Too much to read? How to listen to your PDFs and documents.
Aureley is a text-to-speech app for iPhone, iPad and Android that reads your documents aloud. These guides show how to get through PDFs, reports and Markdown notes by listening, and what we learn building the app.
Why your reading pile keeps growing, and why it isn't your fault
