Comments on iHear Network/Voice TTS Reader for Android

★★★★★ Smooth App is very easy to use. I will keep it on my phone .Would like to see some work on the flow of words. Sometimes hard to understand reading a news article!

★★★★★ wonderful app and performance issues are fixed I love the concept of this app, to listen to my twitter feed while walking, driving, or even while doing chores or exercising. Previously the app was slow on my phone, but after the recent update and reinstalling it, it works great now. I use it with Ivona. 5 stars!!

★★☆☆☆ Tried to use it to read tweets Instant error. Instant follow demand. Instant up sell. #fail

★★☆☆☆ Not working. Most futures works but no speach at all.My phone was not connected to any USB cable but a message keep on poping up saying about saving temp voice file on SD card and to unplug the usb cable. 3 Euro for an additional voice speach??

★★☆☆☆ What happened? This app would originally let you use a map view to see everything but now you can only see who you follow on twitter or Facebook its no fun anymore.

★★☆☆☆ Has some potential for greatness App worked well and did not freeze up on my phone like a lot of other apps tend to do. However, I lost interest fast because it just seemed like another twitter app. I was hoping to be able to select certain topics of interest. (entertainment, sports, conversations, etc.) But most were random tweets having nothing to do with anything of importance to me. Could be an awesome app with a little more innovation and development!!
