I have been using Voice Dream Reader for a few years now (It goes on sale periodically), you send it articles via the share sheet. You get a choice of one free voice with purchase and then the rest are $4.99 a piece IAP, but you can also use all the built in iOS voices aswell. The store includes voices from Acapela, Ivona (who are owned by Amazon), NeoSpeech, and they're all available to try online. They just added an Apple Watch app and now have a Reading List you can activate with Siri Shortcuts.
Saying that, some people like to activate the two finger swipe down (Accessibility > Speech > Speak Screen). It'll read the whole page, even if it's not all on the screen and show controls to change speed, go back and forth a few seconds, and pause. And you can navigate somewhere else on your phone and it'll keep reading until you hit the X.
The big publications themselves have been pushing this service called Audm for the last year. Has anyone come across an article that has a button to play the audio version of an article read by their readers?
