What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The Reizen Daisy Digital Recorder and Player is a talking handheld device that plays audiobooks in the DAISY format and reads text files aloud. It also plays music and video and records audio with a built-in or external microphone. It connects to digital libraries through the DODP app, so you can read books online or download them to a personal bookshelf. Extras like a talking clock, alarms, calculator, timer, compass, and voice memos make it a general-purpose daily tool for someone who can't rely on a screen. It holds 8GB internally and takes an SD card for more, and it comes with a carry case, earphones, lanyard, charger, and two USB cables.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Charge the built-in battery with the included adapter and USB cable. A full charge takes about 5 hours and gives about 15 hours of use.
  • With a guide
    1. Learn the button layout and spoken menus. A sighted helper can walk you through them, or you can use the manufacturer's guide.
    2. Copy books or audio files onto the device from a computer over USB, or add an SD card for extra storage.
    3. Set up the DODP connection to your digital library account to browse and download books. Plan on 30-60 minutes for first-time setup.
