NOTE:
1) Each website is designed differently, so some websites may not return readable text content. This app does not guarantee readability for all websites.
2) This app does not use cellular/wifi data for audio playback once an item text has been downloaded. It uses a customized version of Apples text-to-speech software that is part of the devices operating system.
3) By downloading this app you agree to the following:
+ Adhering to policies, terms and conditions of websites from which you will be downloading the content
+ Using the app responsibly and at your own risk when multi-tasking, especially when operating machinery e.g. driving
