This software is a versatile tool that can function as a talking eBook, photo album, study aid, product demo creator, speed reader, and proofreader. It features a text-to-speech agent character who reads each chapter's picture aloud.
This review is about the Bookbuddi software, which is a versatile tool that acts as a talking eBook or photo album, and even a study aid. What's unique about this software is that each chapter comes with its own picture and is read aloud by the Microsoft text to speech agent character. This feature makes Bookbuddi an ideal solution for anyone who wants to create product demos, speedread or proofread documents.
To use Bookbuddi, you need to store your books or documents in *.bkk files created by the software itself. You can create these files by copy-pasting from other applications or using scanner+OCR. Once you have your *.bkk files, you can explore them using the Bookbuddi ebook. The ebook comprises multiple pages or topics, each with an optional picture (left pane) or text (right pane). When you read, the current position is highlighted, and the software automatically changes to the next page.
If you want to access other documents, you can use the Readbuddi.exe in Program FilesBookbuddi. This feature allows you to copy-paste web pages or other documents to read aloud.
Overall, I find Bookbuddi to be a useful study aid, as it allows me to look at the picture while its explanation is read aloud. Additionally, the software lets me repeat or go to a sentence by selecting it with the mouse. By rereading and repetition, I can learn and understand better, and it saves my eyes, instead of my ears.
