StoryAloud — Terms of Service
Last updated: 2026-11-04
Service
StoryAloud converts PDF documents and text to audiobooks using cloud processing, including AI services. You must hold the rights to every document and text you upload.
Your account and age
- You must be 13 or older to create an account or use StoryAloud. The app is not directed at children under 13.
- You sign in with your Apple or Google account. You are responsible for every activity under your StoryAloud account and for keeping access to it to yourself.
- We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms.
Subscriptions and credits
- Paid subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in your App Store or Google Play settings. Cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends to avoid the next charge.
- Consumable credits are non-refundable except where required by law or by store policy.
- Plan limits — pages per document, credits per month and the size of a voice clip — apply as described in the app.
- Prices are shown by the store in your local currency, and the store handles every payment and refund.
Voice cloning
StoryAloud can narrate your audiobooks in a voice cloned from a recording you make in the app or a clip you upload. A cloned voice can be mistaken for the real person, so the rules below apply, and the app asks you to confirm them before you record or upload a voice.
- You may clone only your own voice, or the voice of a person who has given you their explicit, documented permission to do so.
- You may not use a cloned voice to impersonate anyone, to commit fraud, or to deceive or mislead anyone about who is speaking or whether a recording is genuine.
- A saved voice is used only to narrate your own documents and texts. We do not use it to train a model and we do not make it available to other users.
- We may remove a voice, and suspend the account that created it, if we believe these rules were broken, and we cooperate with lawful requests from a person whose voice was cloned without permission.
- You can delete a saved voice at any time from My Voices, and you can withdraw your voice cloning confirmation in Settings; the app will then ask you to confirm again before your next recording or clip.
AI-generated content
- The audio StoryAloud produces is machine-generated. Text extraction, translation and speech synthesis are performed by AI services and may contain errors, mispronunciations or omissions, and the result may differ from the source document.
- You are responsible for how you use the audio, including checking it against the source before relying on it for anything that matters.
- If an audiobook contains an error or offensive output, you can report it from the player and we will look into it.
Acceptable use
Do not upload illegal content, malware, or material you do not have permission to process. We may suspend an account that does.
Disclaimer
The service is provided "as is". We do not guarantee perfect text extraction, translation, or speech synthesis, and audio quality varies with the source document.
Liability
To the extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
Changes
We may update these terms; the date at the top of this page always reflects the current version. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept it.
