“plenty of voice choices”
Pros
I was genuinely surprised by the range of voice options and speed settings available by theme. There were voices suited to all kinds of different needs which made the software feel very versatile.
Cons
Adding specific spacing between paragraphs wasn't very clear and getting the timing adjusted exactly right was difficult.

“fun to use with better focus”
Pros
Reading long-form documents is a big part of both my job and my personal life and this has given me a really helpful alternative to staring at text all day. It takes a lot of strain off my eyes and lets me absorb information in a different way. The narrator voice options are also fantastic, having Snoop Dogg read a long, dull document genuinely changes the whole experience. I even suggest it to my clients because the material I create is very text-heavy and this makes it much easier for them to take in and understand what they paid for. Another big plus is being able to listen while moving around which helps me fit more activity into my workday.
Cons
My only real issue is that I still forget to use it sometimes because I'm so used to reading everything myself. I usually turn to it once my eyes already feel tired, when honestly I should probably be using it more regularly.

“5x playback and accent variety”
Pros
Being able to listen at 5x speed saves me a ton of time when I'm editing articles which is really important for my work. I also appreciate the range of accents, especially the British male voice. Another big plus is that it can scan written text and turn it into speech which makes it even more useful.
Cons
Honestly don't have any complaints about it.
