Talking Clock

Fredric Ericsson

About this app

Allows you to with a simple click know what time it is without the need of taking your phone out of your pocket.
You can also set an interval for automatic announcement of what the current time is.

Usage:
* click your power button 2-3 times while the background service is running and it will say in a text to speech voice what the current time is.
* Used for example when you have earphones and telephone in your pocket, so you don't have to take it out to know what the time is.

Info:
* You might need to go into "voice input & output" -> "text to speech settings" to install TTS default data.
* Request a feature and i'll probebly add it, i read all comments and mails, even if i do not answer.

Excellent app. Will help me stay on schedule when watching YouTube on my phone in the mornings before going to work. Update : Started off very well, now sometimes it won't sound unless I unlock my phone. Today it has started announcing the time every time I unlock my phone even after disabling auto mode. Looks like the smart phone is not really as smart as it pretends to be... I've lost count of how many talking clock apps I've tried. I give up.

It is a good app.. But it is sort of clunky. I think reading the time every minute is fine, but so is say being able to choose every 1/4, 1/2 and full hour.... or increments. And being able to vary to speed, pitch and gender of the speaker is a good feature.

Love the way you can make it say what you want as it tells you the time. only reason not five star, it has a few bugs, great talking clock app otherwise. June 2020 app does not work anymore. Announcements include the colon between the numbers. Time is on time with your phone clock and love how can customize text on what to say
