Audiobooks have been growing steadily in popularity with readers, but although audiobooks are an enjoyable and accessible solution to many book lovers, they can be costly for authors and publishers to produce. That’s why Apple offers digital narration.
Apple Books digital narration brings advanced text-to-speech technology based on work by teams of linguists, quality control specialists, and audio engineers to produce audiobooks from an ebook file.
Apple Books digital narration is free to authors and publishers, making it possible to produce and offer audiobooks to meet the growing demand in the market.
