Just download our app, sign in to your email account, and your emails will be read out loud to you on your CarPlay!

Ratings and Reviews
Best App for Triaging Email While Driving
I live just a few minutes away from work. My typical routine used to be (1) wake up late; (2) look at email and commence experiencing panic; (3) shower while panicking; (4) get ready while panicking; (5) drive to work while panicking; (6) get to work and begin playing email tennis for a few hours.
Now, I wait until I’m in the car and then I use SpeakingEmail to triage my email. Sure, I could process email and do all my responses via SpeakingEmail but I prefer to just get rid of all the email that doesn’t really require much action or is just junk. I use the unsubscribe and block commands
to deal with all the unsolicited email that I get. I also forward emails to TickTick or Todoist for my GTD workflows.
You’re probably thinking: why not just use Apple Mail or Microsoft Outlook both of which have text-to-speech functionality. Well, Apple Mail is incredibly limited in what it can do. Outlook uses Cortana which has a fantastic natural sounding text-to-speech engine. But the downside is that it is so focused on sounding human and friendly that it takes over a minute for each email to be read out.
No other voice-based email app has the level of customization that SpeakingEmail has. I love it and the main reason I wrote this long review is that I hope someone else reading this will also find it and get the same benefits that I do.
Thank you guys for making this app. You have greatly reduced my chances of dying of a heart attack.
Worked fine now it’s broken
Wired fine at first. Just recently it just loads and loads until it tells you something went wrong. Needs fixing.
