About this app

CereProc's mobile app that allows users to trial and use voices on Android devices.

Users can browse the wide array of CereProc text-to-speech voices which come in a multitude of languages and accents. Prior to purchasing, voices can be trialled beforehand to allow users to experience the sound of our voices.

With the introduction of CereProc's version 6 voices, CereWave alternatives have been introduced. CereWave voices are built using CereProc's custom AI DNN (Deep Neural Network) voice building technique to create a more human sounding output. This type of voice is provided alongside the original Standard voices, built with Unit Selection, meaning users can switch between the two types of voice.

Ratings and reviews

I have had no system crashes or refusals. The Stuart voice is the highest quality offline voice I can find on Play right now. The only issue I have is that these voices are bad at detecting and reading out acronyms. For example, it will read out "RGMII" as "Rigmee". Frankly, that is not a deal breaker for me, and the quality is well worth the $1ish price, so I will continue for now.

Weird that a demo app to choose a voice to purchase would limit you to the number of voices you can demo. Also, only one of the two voices I purchased works in my phone's TTS engine. Jack is silent, even after uninstalling and reinstalling. Amy works though. In any case, this is a worthwhile replacement when you can no longer use Ivona Voice.

The voices are by far the best I've heard on the market, so I bought one. It shows only in their app: it doesn't install without a license key, which isn't provided - not in the app, not on your account on their website, not on any email receipt. You can't ask for a refund as it doesn't appear in the Play Store. Was only 99¢, live and learn.
