 Here’s Abogen in action: in this demo, it processes ∼3,000 characters of text in just 11 seconds and turns it into 3 minutes and 28 seconds of audio, and I have a low-end **RTX 2060 Mobile laptop GPU**. Your results may vary depending on your hardware.
 
-## `Key Features`
-- **Supported formats**: `ePub`, `PDF`, or `.TXT` files (or use built-in text editor)

 ## `Voice Mixer`
 <img title="Abogen Voice Mixer" src='https://raw.githubusercontent.com/denizsafak/abogen/refs/heads/main/demo/voice_mixer.png'>
 
 With voice mixer, you can create custom voices by mixing different voice models. You can adjust the weight of each voice and save your custom voice as a profile for future use. The voice mixer allows you to create unique and personalized voices. (Huge thanks to [@jborza](https://github.com/jborza) for making this possible through his contributions in [#5](https://github.com/denizsafak/abogen/pull/5))
 
+## `Queue Mode`
+<img title="Abogen queue mode" src='https://raw.githubusercontent.com/denizsafak/abogen/refs/heads/main/demo/queue.png'>
+
+Abogen supports **queue mode**, allowing you to add multiple files to a processing queue. This is useful if you want to convert several files in one batch.
+
+- You can add text files (`.txt`) directly using the **Add files** button in the Queue Manager. To add PDF or EPUB files, use the input box in the main window and click the **Add to Queue** button.
+- Each file in the queue keeps the configuration settings that were active when it was added. Changing the main window configuration afterward does **not** affect files already in the queue.
+- You can view each file's configuration by hovering over them.
+
+Abogen will process each item in the queue automatically, saving outputs as configured.
+> Special thanks to [@jborza](https://github.com/jborza) for adding queue mode in PR [#35](https://github.com/denizsafak/abogen/pull/35)

This is useful for audiobook players that support metadata, allowing you to add information like title, author, year, etc. Abogen automatically adds these tags when you process ePUB or PDF files, but you can also add them manually to your text files.
