Thanks. I tried this a few different ways also, but it also needs the iPhone and iPad apps published on App Store, web server to sync across devices, and other things. I don't think that was solved in the ChatGPT you linked.

Thanks for the suggestion but Voicedream is garbage. There's no pagination for books so it's a massive, scrollable doc when I upload an ePub. Even worse, the TTS sounds like it's from the 90s and doesn't have the latest human sounding voices that OpenAI has.

Can someone make this app? I want it so badly and will be the first paying user.I use Kindle Whisper Sync most days. It lets me listen to books at the gym in the morning and then keep reading on the kindle app before bed at night. The critical thing is that I can read and listen to the same book and it tracks my progress regardless of how I'm consuming the book. This is the only way I can spend...
