### 2/5 — Does NOT work with phone calls

*2026-01-15*

Just a warning for those who are mute and are looking to purchase a TTS app that works with phone calls… This is not one of them. I wish it was because it has some nice features and integrations with services like ElevenLabs.

### 1/5 — Outdated app with terrible robotic voice

*2025-03-19*

Outdated app with terrible robotic voice. OpenAi option does not work.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear that the app is not functioning as expected. Please reach out at support@startway.io for assistance.

### 2/5 — Export didn't work

*2022-05-22*

The app works OK overall except that the export feature that is supposedly fixed does not work.  Disappointing.  A working export feature (with options) should really be a part of this App.  If it is not intended to export a useable file then that should be noted in the description.

**Developer response:** Hello Rkern, you may send an email to support@startway.io for further investigation of the issue you mentioned. Thank you.

### 2/5 — Needs Work

*2022-04-06*

I was desperate as I needed a text to audio app for school. But this app is not it. You can't save anything, the audio and voice is awful quality, and there aren't any modification tools. You can only copy, paste, and listen. I recently discovered Microsoft Word has a test to spoken music track service in the program. That's what I've been using and what I've been looking for. This app is not worth the price. Think of it as SimText from the 90s.

**Developer response:** Update: You can now export the voice as MP3 on macOS.
===================
Hello Jonathan,
Sorry to hear the app is not working as your expected. Voice speed and pitch can be adjusted in the sidebar. Save as MP3 function will be added in next version. If you have any questions or feedback, please contact with support@startway.io. Thank you.

### 4/5 — Great voice - limited options

*2021-04-10*

The digital voice is outstanding for this price. However, although it is a Mac app, no option to read books or webpages. You must copy and paste whatever you wish to listen to. No choice of which voice you wish to use. Also unable to export an audio file from this app.

**Developer response:** Update: You can now export the voice as MP3 on macOS.
===================
Update: You can now export the voice as MP3 on iOS & iPadOS. This feature will be available on Mac soon.
===================
Thanks for suggestions. More functions will be available after WWDC21. Stay tuned :)
