I know it's still early days, but combining this product with an ebook reader would be a great.
Something like Voice

You will be able to add any PDF or epub to a queue in voca and let it read to you.
Can I use obtanium for this? The main repo link doesnt seem to work.
Yes you can, paste the release link (not main repo link) in the app source.
Hopefully today we will release on @Zapstore

Currently v0.0.2 has indeed a similar UX & feature set to sherpa, but already now you can highlight any text, click share, and then send the text to voca to start it reading. That's a big UX improvement already, and just the beginning. Soon you will be able to share pdfs, epubs or websites with voca to instantly start reading them. And eventually you can add text to a queue in voca to bookmark for later reading, kind of like a podcast app.
In short, Sherpa is primarily a text to speech engine, while voca is primarily a reader app.
This is surprisingly something I never thought I'd want. But it works great. Copy Text --> Shart to.. --> Voca. That's it.

It works in obtainium already, but checkout @Zapstore, its better UX and better security.
