What’s New in January: User Accounts, Premium Voices, and More
A detailed overview of the latest updates to Read PDF Aloud, including user accounts, premium voices, and interface improvements.
Read PDF Aloud just got a major upgrade! This January, I’ve rolled out some big functional updates. Here’s a quick breakdown of what’s new:
User Accounts & Cloud Sync
I’ve officially launched User Accounts! By signing in, you can now:
Grab 100 Welcome Credits: Sign up today and get 100 complimentary credits to test-drive the premium voices. Love them? You can top up your balance anytime.
Daily Rewards: Log in every day to claim 5 free credits — a little something to help you explore premium features for free.
Sync Your Favorites: Your favorite voices now follow you wherever you log in. And don’t worry—your PDF content and audio stay strictly on your device. Your privacy remains my top priority.
Discover More Natural Voices
I’ve added 68 ultra-natural premium voices across multiple languages. As a reminder, just log in to snag your 100 free credits and hear the difference for yourself!
Streamlined Voice Selection
I’ve decluttered the interface! Language and voice selections are now combined into one easy-to-use menu. Plus, with the new filtering tool, finding the perfect voice is faster than ever.
Updates to Voice Usage
To help me keep improving the platform, I’m introducing some changes to how voices are used. Standard voices will now be credit-based (1 credits per 1,000 characters).You’ll see this change reflected once the payment system officially launches.
Don’t worry, though—you’ll still receive 5 free credits every day just for logging in! For light use, this daily bonus will still cover your reading for free. If you’re a heavy user and need a boost, you can always top up your balance.
Under the Hood
I’ve also been busy polishing the overall experience:
Bug Fixes: I’ve squashed those pesky bugs. If anything still feels “off,” feel free to reach out to me at dkphhh@foxmail.com.
Global Reach: Now supporting even more languages for our growing global community.
Faster Performance: Optimized logic means a smoother, snappier experience for you.
