And Paperback for iOS is now in public Test Flight! My original plan was to publish both Android and iOS at the same time, but Google is unexpectedly dragging their feet, and when I heard this email come in I literally stopped my work for a minute to come post this. It's still not perfect, there's one bug I've found so far if your book contains , but that's easily fixable and now this way many more actual iOS users can throw rocks at it. https://testflight.apple.com/join/e5622MJK

@TheQuinbox@dragonscave.space you've put me in quite the predicament, because on one hand VoiceDream has become increasingly terrible while Android still has some usable options, and I'd like to help test a worthy replacement on iOS. On the other, I suspect you'll have fewer Android testers, and I need an excuse to use it more. I might just have to have fanfiction on one device and everything else on another. Also, I literally just installed it and loaded an epub, but whatever you've done with TTS rendering is pretty neat. It pauses and resumes in the middle of words, so I'm guessing you render it a bit ahead of playback and then use your own audio system, which is a neat way to avoid a lot of the annoying pauses/glitches in other apps.
