NEW! - OCR technology!
So you can copy any text, and have it read to you, great!! but what about text in images, or text on a piece of paper? now PRO users can have the app read everything. The app uses Google's new vision API Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology [which currently only reads Latin character text (e.g. English, Spanish, German, French, etc.)] to accomplish this. Best results are obtained with images (since bad camera focus & shaky hands don't play a part), cropping the image will make sure you only get the text you want without any background "Junk".

NOTE! You must have a Text to Speech engine installed on your device for the app to work. If you don't have a TTS engine, you can easily find and download one on google play. Some languages will only work with specific engines.

Comments on TTS Reader for Android

★★★★★ Claudia Zetune · Oct 28, 2019

Hi Mr. David Eichmann. This is not a critic. It's a suggestion. Could you please add the Hebrew language? I am learning the Hebrew, and it's been so difficult to find a TTS for Hebrew, that when I saw your name as a Developer a light of hope turned on. Well, I still keep looking for it. Thanks for any initiative in this direction.

★★★★★ A Google user · Dec 26, 2018

I think it's great that you can paste long texts and there's voice control. My only dealbreaker for this app is that the reader is too slow. Despite the 2.0 speed, it is still too slow for me. I will change rating if reader becomes faster. Thanks! -Edit Hi, thanks for the fast response! I'm not sure but maybe the highest could be 3.0 speed? I will try to test right away when it's updated. -Hi! Thanks for considering my request! Changing it to 5 stars

Samsung Galaxy S8+ 1GNORING the TTS engine settings I have specified over in the Android settings. I have set Google TTS to use a male, English (United States) Voice VIll, voice. But this app uses it with a male, English (United Kingdom) voice.👎 I have set Google TTS to use a male, English (United States) Voice VIll, voice. But this app uses it with a female, English (lndia) voice.👎 Yes - TTS Reader Pro - Text To Speech
