voiceOK is the best way to preserve your voice for now and for future generations. Read classic stories via the voiceOK app (iOS and Android) aloud and by recording over 1 hour of audio you can preserve your voice for the next 1,000 years.
The story in your YouTube video was touching. I can see how this can help preserve memories of people as a sort of historical record.
I personally don’t see myself using it right now, but I like the mission and hope things go well for you and voiceOK.
Good luck & congrats on the launch.

@antdke Thanks Anthony, much appreciate the comments :)
Interested to understand why you don't see using it right now? Do you feel it is something to do later in life? Thanks for the feedback
Hi PH,
The has been a long time coming and so glad to be able to launch on PH today.
voiceOK is a FREE mobile app that allows you to preserve your voice by reading stories aloud. The idea all stemed from discovering my great great anties 1940s diaries and wanting to hear the written words spoken but after much searching and research not being able to re-create her voice.
By reading 1 hour of audio you can preserve your voice for the next 1,000 years. But these recordings can be used today, to comfort your children if you're working late. A way for grandparents to still engage with the next generations especially in the current times where people can’t meetup.
You can download on iOS and Android (in preview) today, it’s early and we will announce over time the amazing things you could do with your voice but we believe everyone should be able to preserve their voice before it is too late.
We don’t monetise off your data, we offer premium features such as remote backup (client-side encryption so we can’t even access your recordings), the ability to capture a snapshot of someone's life through a digital memory Keepsake and other features coming soon.
This sounds so exciting to me! I feel like this infrastructure may be used to preserve the oral culture in some cases...
I've got a question though. Does digitizing your voice mean your voice can be recreated for the stories you haven't read and sentences you didn't say for example? Not sure I am getting this part right. :)
@berfuhena_azazi 100% on perserve oral culture. On recreation, yes is the simple answer, with 1 hour of your speaking we can synthesise your voice so you could read stories that aren't written yet or your great great great granchildren for example could have you read a story written in 400 years time. We predict that in 5 years a synthesise will sound just like you. We are still working on that part and will release that feature early next year.
