The print is too small.

Point your camera. Hear the page.

Small print, lost glasses, a letter you want to hear instead of read. Take a photo, and Aura reads the text aloud.

How it works

  1. In Aura, take a photo of the page, or pick a photo you already have.
  2. Aura finds the text in the picture. This is called text recognition (OCR). It happens on your phone.
  3. Check the text, then press play.

Good uses

Translate, then listen

A label in a language you don’t read? Download a language pack once. Then Aura translates the text on your phone, and reads the translation aloud.
