About this app

Vocalizer is an embedded TTS engine that provides expressive and natural sounding voices in over 50 languages.

Vocalizer enriches the user experience for a variety of applications on your device such as GPS navigation, E-Book reading and assistive software.

*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
- Each voice can be purchased through a simple In-App purchase process. App includes a 7 days trial to test voices.
- Recent Google apps updates force using their own voices. GPS apps (maps) or the AI assistant, ignore text-to-speech settings, only allowing Google TTS. This decision from Google has been strongly discouraged by the Android community but as for now, we cannot ensure compatibility for this apps. As an alternative, you can use Vocalizer voices on other GPS apps like "Navigator" or "Sygic", that are compatible with Google Speech APIs.

Ratings and reviews

This app is a system TTS. The app is easy to use and if you want to download a voice over data rather than wifi, it will automatically take you to the app settings to change that. Just scroll down to see it. The voices are nice and smooth and easy to listen to. I was also really happy to see the Dev(s) replying to the reviews, with an actual care for user experience, rather than stars. That is the main thing I look for when downloading an app.

Fixed the issue with my tablet, until the update, upon reboot, I would have to download the language pack again each time. So far so good rebooted and left tablet off and no errors. Some of the voices are hit and miss, my likings are Zoe (US English) & Karen (Australian English). Since I'm visually impaired, I tried a bunch of voices with my accessibility software to see which worked best with it.

The voices provided are great and worth the money. I'm not a fan of the voices provided by Google on my Pixel 2 XL, and the purchased "Oliver" UK English voice seemed perfect for my needs. Reading a sample piece of text works just fine, but after it hits punctuation it comes to a complete halt. The engine is not suitable for reading books. I'd love to see this fixed in the future.
