How can we help?

Start with the questions below. If you do not find an answer, send us a message — we reply within three business days.

ReadBull for iOS

Playback stops when I lock the phone

Make sure ReadBull is allowed to play in the background: iOS Settings → ReadBull → Background App Refresh does not affect audio, but Low Power Mode and “Screen Time” limits can. Also check that the Silent switch is not affecting media — TTS uses the media channel, so the volume buttons control it.

The voice sounds robotic

The default iOS voices are compact. Download an enhanced or premium voice in Settings → Accessibility → Spoken Content → Voices; ReadBull lists every installed voice under Voice settings.

A page imports with menus or ads in the text

Try the built-in browser, which extracts from the fully rendered page. If the site still produces noise, send us the URL — we maintain a list of cleanup rules for common sites.

Chinese text is read with the wrong voice

ReadBull detects the language per track. Open the track’s Voice settings and pick a Traditional or Simplified Chinese voice explicitly; that choice is remembered for the track.

How do I delete everything?

Delete the playlists you no longer need, or delete the app. ReadBull stores all data on your device only, so removing the app removes everything.

How do I get clips from my computer?

Install the ReadBull Clipper for Chrome, clip a few pages, then either “Copy to clipboard” (and choose New → Copied text in ReadBull) or “Show QR” (and scan from New → Scan QR).

ReadBull Clipper for Chrome

“Load unpacked” is greyed out

Turn on Developer mode in the top-right corner of chrome://extensions first.

The clipboard batch does not arrive on my iPhone

Universal Clipboard needs both devices signed in to the same Apple ID, with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on and Handoff enabled. Paste within a couple of minutes. If it still fails, use the QR code instead.

The QR code keeps animating

That is expected for large batches: it loops through the fragments until ReadBull has collected them all. Hold the phone steady about 20 cm from the screen.

Nothing is extracted from a page

Some pages (PDF viewers, logged-in web apps) do not expose article text. Select the text you want and use “Clip selected text” from the right-click menu.
