With Read Aloud, you can turn page text into speech.

Read Aloud is available in the Google app for iPhones or iPads.

Important: This feature isn’t available on all sites.

Read Aloud reads each word you see on the screen out loud in order to provide you with the maximum opportunity to comprehend and engage with what is written on the page.

The Voice Reader Study conducted by the Department of Computer Sciences at the University of Regensberg (2015), shows when listening to text being read out loud while simultaneously reading it to themselves, participants experienced a 44% increase in comprehension over reading to themselves only.
