Comments on Read it loud! SMS Reader Basic for Android
★★★★★
Works great Works as it should. I like that it had a small footprint. Only thing I would like is an option to turn off voicemail notification. It doesn't read my voicemail but it announces the voicemail as a sms followed by numbers. Also an shut up feature when a button is pressed would be nice too.
★★★★★
Useful but needs more options Needs options to: Filter which messages get read Have a time schedule (e.g. don't read while I'm at work)
