About this app

Your critical SMS alerts — read aloud straight to your ears.

SMS-TTS-Notify converts incoming SMS messages to private voice notifications delivered through your connected headset. Designed for workers in manufacturing, logistics, data centers, and critical infrastructure who cannot look at their phone screen during work.

HOW IT WORKS
Connect your headset. Tap Start. That's it. When an SMS arrives, the app reads it aloud through your headset — privately, instantly, hands-free. No account needed, no configuration required, works fully offline after setup.

PRIORITY ROUTING
ALARM messages jump the queue. WARNING comes next. INFO waits its turn. Critical alerts are heard first, always. Define your own alarm and warning keywords to match your monitoring system.

MULTI-LANGUAGE
Choose the language your messages are spoken in — English, German, Czech, or any language supported by your device. Your team hears what matters — in a language they understand.

SMART FILTERS
Whitelist trusted senders. Blacklist spam. Only hear what matters. Anti-spam
protection prevents repeated messages from interrupting your work.

YOU'RE IN CONTROL
Mute by shaking your phone, pressing the headset button, or tapping the home screen widget. Multiple ways to silence instantly — pick what suits you.

SMARTSUMMARY
Missed messages while muted, on a call, or with headset disconnected? When you reconnect, the app gives you a spoken overview: how many messages arrived and at what priority. You always know what you missed.

ZERO LEAKAGE
Audio only plays through your connected headset. Never through the phone speaker. If the headset disconnects, audio stops immediately. Hardware-enforced. Your messages stay private on the floor.

PRIVACY FIRST
No SMS inbox access — reads notification text only. No analytics — zero tracking, zero data collection. All message data stays on your device. No ads, no in-app purchases. Only anonymous crash reports for stability.

OPEN-EAR HEADSETS
Compatible with any headset, but open-ear (bone-conduction) headsets are the recommended form factor. Hear voice notifications and your surroundings simultaneously. Compatible with hearing protection and helmets.

WHY ONLY SMS?
A typical smartphone receives hundreds of notifications daily. If a TTS app reads everything, critical production alerts drown in noise. By focusing exclusively on SMS, every message you hear matters. No notification fatigue. A trusted audio channel that only delivers what's important.

SMS-TTS-Notify is a supplementary notification tool. It does not replace your
phone's SMS application. Always maintain alternative notification methods for safety-critical alerts.

REQUIREMENTS
Android 9 or higher. Bluetooth or wired headset. Notification access permission (granted during setup). No mobile data needed after initial setup.

On some devices (Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei), the Battery Protection Setup wizard (part of first-time setup) configures battery optimization automatically.

Android only — not available for iOS.
