🎧 Key Features
1. Dual-Mode Experience
Real-Time Audio & Text Sync Professional narration with dynamically highlighted text (like music lyrics). Example: When the narrator reads Chapter 5, text auto-scrolls with word-by-word emphasis.
2. Smart Customization
Voice & Speed Control Adjust playback speed (0.5x-2x) and select voice styles (deep, calming, etc.).
Chapter Bookmarks & Voice Notes Attach audio or text notes to key passages for later review.
3. Modern, Adaptive UI
Dynamic Themes Choose dark mode, sepia, or gradient backgrounds + customizable fonts.
Contextual Visuals Animated backgrounds adapt to book genres (e.g., forests for fantasy, neon cities for sci-fi).
4. Social Reading
Clip Sharing Export audio+text snippets as social media-ready reels.
Chapter Clubs Join live discussions with other readers per chapter.
🚀 Why SoundScribe Stands Out?
✔ "Spotify for Books" – Music-app inspired UX with minimalist elegance. ✔ 2X Retention – Audio+text combo boosts comprehension by 40% (Stanford study). ✔ Multitask-Friendly – Seamlessly switch between listening and reading without losing context.
