Send Any Article to Your Phone — Listen Anywhere
Desktop browser to phone in one tap. CastReader sends articles, Kindle books, and WeRead novels to your Telegram. Auto-advancing pages, real-time sync.
Three Ways to Listen on Your Phone
From quick shares to live book streaming — pick the mode that fits
Static Share
Snap & Send — Any Web Article
Reading an article on your laptop? One click sends it to your phone as a shareable audio link. Opens in a mobile web player — no app needed. Link stays active for 24 hours. Perfect for articles, blog posts, and news you want to finish on the go.
Live Session
Kindle & WeRead — Auto-Sync to Phone
For Kindle Cloud Reader and WeRead, CastReader goes further. It auto-turns pages on your desktop, extracts text via OCR, and streams each new page to your phone in real-time via SSE. Your phone keeps playing continuously — no manual page turns, no interruptions. Like an audiobook that writes itself as you go.
Reading Companion
Telegram + ClawBot — Chat About What You Read
CastReader sends content through OpenClaw's ClawBot on Telegram. Not just audio — your ClawBot understands the text. Ask about characters, request chapter summaries, discuss plot twists. It's a reading companion that listens with you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything about sending content to your phone with CastReader
How does Send to Phone work?
Click the phone icon in CastReader's floating player. For regular articles, it generates a shareable link that opens in a mobile web player. For Kindle and WeRead, it creates a live session that streams audio to your phone in real-time.
Do I need to install an app on my phone?
No. The audio plays in your phone's browser — no app download needed. You receive a link via Telegram that opens a web-based audio player.
Why Telegram?
CastReader uses OpenClaw's ClawBot to deliver content. Telegram is the primary channel because it handles audio files natively and supports rich media messages. The link also works if you share it through any other messaging app.
Does the Kindle live session drain battery?
The desktop browser does the heavy lifting — OCR, text extraction, and TTS generation all happen there. Your phone just receives and plays audio, which is very light on battery.
How long do shared links last?
Static share links are active for 24 hours. Live session links stay active as long as the desktop browser tab is open.
Is it free?
Completely free. No account, no limits, no premium tier. Send to Phone is included with the free CastReader Chrome extension.
What languages are supported?
All 40+ languages that CastReader supports. The AI voices sound natural in English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, and many more.
Can I control playback from my phone?
Yes. The mobile web player has play/pause, skip paragraph, and speed controls. In live sessions, your phone can also send commands back to the desktop — like requesting the next chapter.
How does this compare to Speechify or NaturalReader?
Neither Speechify ($139/year) nor NaturalReader ($99/year) can read Kindle Cloud Reader at all — Amazon's encrypted fonts break them. Neither offers a desktop-to-phone audio streaming feature. CastReader does both, for free.
Do I need Audible to listen to Kindle books on my phone?
No. CastReader turns your existing Kindle library into audiobooks you can listen to on your phone. No Audible subscription needed. Every book you own on Kindle becomes listenable at zero cost.
