To get a book to read out loud, you can use the Read Aloud feature available in the Play Books app. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do it:
1. First, open the Play Books app on your device. If you don’t have it installed, you can download it from the app store.
2. Once you have the app open, navigate to the book you want to read out loud. You can either choose a book from your library or search for a specific title in the Play Books store.
3. When you have selected the book you want to read, open it by tapping on its cover or title.
4. To enter the skim mode, tap anywhere on the page of the book. This allows you to access additional options and settings.
5. At the top right corner of the screen, you will see a menu button, usually represented by three vertical dots. Tap on it to open the menu.
6. In the menu, look for the “Read aloud” option and select it. This will activate the Read Aloud feature and start reading the book out loud.
7. You can control the reading speed, pause or resume the reading, and skip to the next or previous page by using the playback controls that appear on the screen.
8. Additionally, you might have options to customize the voice and language used for the reading. These settings can usually be found in the app’s settings menu or within the Read Aloud feature itself.
By following these steps, you should be able to enable the Read Aloud feature in the Play Books app and enjoy having your book read out loud to you. This feature can be particularly useful for those who prefer to listen to books instead of reading them or for people with visual impairments.
Please note that the availability and functionality of the Read Aloud feature may vary depending on the version of the Play Books app and the device you are using. It’s always a good idea to explore the app’s settings and documentation for more specific instructions tailored to your device.
