Oplæs is an iPhone app by Peter Theill. Contact: oplaes@theill.com
On your device
Texts, books and your reading position are stored in the app’s local storage on your iPhone. Speech is generated on the phone, and Oplæs never sends your texts to a server.
Web pages are fetched only when you share them to Oplæs or type their address in the app. The camera is used only when you photograph a page. The voices download once from a file server at Cloudflare; that request contains only technical information such as IP address and app version. It is used only to deliver the files, and Oplæs keeps no logs from the file server. On iOS 26, iOS may also download Apple’s Danish or English speech recognition the first time, which Oplæs uses on the phone to check its own reading; that happens through Apple. Deleting the app removes its local data.
No account or tracking
Oplæs has no account, advertising, analytics or tracking SDKs.
Buying Oplæs
