Ratings and reviews

I've been looking for something like this, oddly enough, I wasn’t having much luck. All I found were apps that were too specific/couldn't read from 3rd party apps, or apps I had to pay for. Then, I came across this little beauty. It's simple & efficient. Good work. Thanks. I've ONE complaint. The read out of highlighted text will randomly stop when played from the context menu but, reads fine if typed (copy/paste, in this case) into the app itself. Aside from that, I've had no problems at all.

Great app but it has serious issues with Bluetooth audio in Android Auto. The app appears to be reading aloud but no sound ever comes out of the speakers in the car. The only work around I've been able to find is to start another app's audio at the same time (such as Spotify). This seems to "wake up" this app so that its voice output can start using the Bluetooth audio connection. I would definitely give this app five stars if this bug could be fixed.

Awesome basic app that gets the job done! I used this in a pinch when I got sick and lost my voice during a fun night chatting with friends. You just type the text, and the app reads it out loud for you. Husband found it obnoxious, but that was more me still wanting to speak than the app, lol. Would install and use again next time I lose my voice.
