Ratings and reviews

My experience with this app has been very wonderful. But the only problem I face is when it comes to emojis. It doesn't describe an emoji as it should. For example, when it's an emoji involving something to do with the face, it'll only say face, so it's confusing for me to know what kind of face emoji it is. I wish they could work on that. and just a quick note to the developers. I suggest the work on Robert and rob. Those voices usually crash I don't know why.

This app most usefull for us. Thanks for providing a simple Text to speach sirvice. It's easy to use and user friendly app. I want your attention for a bug in this app. this app not provide us a number processing feature while reading a number text. for example!91990 is a number processed by Text to speach. But if text to speech read it (91 thousand 9 hundred 90) then it not processed better. We can say, this app not process numbers in a simple way. it can be inconvenient while reading OTPs S

Any particular reason why the speech engine switches from switches from English United States to something like English United Kingdom? Usually turning off talk back, and then turning it back on helps, or going into the text to speech settings fixes it. But it's only temporary. Until I go into something like Wikipedia, or Chrome. It's using the default system language.
