Frequently Asked Questions
What are premium voice options?
Premium voice options are higher-quality, more natural-sounding voices designed to improve your listening experience.
Note: availability of voice options may be refined over time as features are updated.
Is there a cost to use it?
It depends on your subscription plan.
Semesterly or annual plan: premium voice options are already included at no extra cost 🙌
Monthly plan: the first 15 minutes are free as a trial. After, you'll be asked to upgrade your plan to continue using the feature or return to the default voice – no action means no charges.
Can I switch back to the default voice?
Yes, you can switch back at any time from your settings in-book ⚙️
