Telehopper

Listen to the things people send you.

Your reading time isn't growing, but the things people send you are. The long article in Messages. The PDF of the piece behind a paywall. The 2,000-word email you'll get to later. Telehopper turns that pile into something you can listen to on the drive.

Coming to the App Store

Share it in, listen on the way.

Share a link, a PDF, or any text into Telehopper and it reads it to you — queued, paced, and picking up exactly where you stopped. Works from the lock screen and from your steering wheel controls.

PDFs that actually sound right.

Most apps read a PDF the way it was printed — pausing at the end of every visual line, announcing headers and page numbers. Telehopper rebuilds the paragraphs first, so it reads like prose instead of a layout.

The sixty-second version.

Not sure something's worth twenty minutes? Get a short spoken summary first and triage a whole queue on a short drive.

Send it back as audio.

Turn anything in your queue into an audio file and send it to a friend. They don't need Telehopper, an account, or anything installed — it plays right in the message.

It stays on your device.

Reading, extraction, summaries and speech all run on your iPhone. No account. No sign-up. Nothing uploaded. Not a policy we promise to follow — an app with nowhere to send it. See the privacy policy.
