Yes, that is one of the premium features. I was concerned that typical users might not know how to change their TTS settings to improve the voice, so I included a pretty substantial explanation of this in the Help section of the app. I also set up the read aloud function so that it continues to play when the user backgrounds the app. The hope is that they can then use it the same way they use Audible or similar.
