Frequently asked questions
Can I download the audio as MP3?
Browsers don't let web pages record the built-in speech engine, so playback is live only.
Why are there different voices on my phone?
Voices are supplied by your operating system, so each device has its own set.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser with JavaScript — nothing you type or open is sent to our servers.
