Símarómur

Símarómur is an Icelandic text-to-speech app for mobile devices, the first Icelandic speech synthesis voices for iPhone and iPad! The voices work as an Icelandic system voice on iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. The app connects with accessibility applications such as Voice Over and Spoken Content (iOS), Talk Back and Accessibility Suite (Android). Additionally, all applications that use system voices can utilize Símarómur's voices. With Símarómur's help, your device can now read all Icelandic texts. The newest version of Símarómur for iPhone/iPad offers six Icelandic voices, and for three of them three different speaking styles can be selected.

NOTE: Símarómur and other 3rd party TTS voices do not fully work with the newest version of iOS! Those that have already updated to iOS 26 should update their system every time an update is announced, in iOS 26.2. a part of the problems has been resolved. Apple is aware of the problem and we hope that the full functionality of Símarómur on iOS 26 will soon be secured! We encourage users still using iOS 18 to wait until iOS 26 has been fixed to work seamlessly with Símarómur.
