Read a difficult page
Android · iPhone · quillo.trUpdated:
Where: Reader › ⋮ › Read a difficult page (in PDFs and scanned documents); Tools › Read a difficult page (a document from the library, Upload file or Take photo).
For a handwritten note, a table, a formula or a page that text recognition garbled, Ai looks at the page image, reads it and makes it ready to be read aloud. Tables are written as "column name: value" sentences, formulas as they are spoken ("x squared plus two x"); page headers and footers are skipped.
- 1Go to the hard-to-read page and tap "Read a difficult page" in the ⋮ menu.
- 2 Ai looks at the page; the result shows the text it read and what is on the page (Handwriting, Table, Formula).
- 3The result is saved automatically: read-aloud now reads this text on this page. "Listen" reads only this text.
- 4If you don't like it, "Undo" returns the page to its own text; "Read again" reads the page from scratch.
A file that is not in the library: in Tools › Read a difficult page, use "Upload file" or "Take photo" to read a handwritten note, table or formula directly; the text appears in a window and is read with "Listen", and the file is not added to the library (add it with "Add to library").
Free and Pro: Needs a Ai plan (Starter or Pro) or trial allowance. Each page is ¼ Ai page. The result is saved with the document (and reaches your other devices if Drive is connected); reopening the same page brings it back for free.
Tip: For blind and low-vision users: if a scanned page reads as nonsense, try this command. The page image is sent to Ai only for this request and is not stored on the server.
Web (quillo.tr): On quillo.tr, reader › ⋮ › Read a difficult page; the page open at that moment is read. In Tools › Read a difficult page you can upload a file, take a photo on a phone, or paste an image with Ctrl+V on a computer.
iPhone: Reader › ⋮ › Read a difficult page; Tools › Read a difficult page › Upload file (Photo from gallery or Choose file) or Take photo: the text appears in a window and is read with "Listen", and it is not saved; in a PDF the arrows change the page; "Add to library" keeps it.
