In short

Lumotext is a productivity app that reads articles, PDFs, notes and scanned pages aloud while highlighting each sentence and word as the voice reaches it. It suits people who want to listen and follow along on screen at the same time. It stands out for its three-level highlighting, which marks the paragraph, sentence and current word together, and it syncs reading position across iPhone, iPad and the web.
