Awesome

You guys are user-friendly you are a perfect fit for a retiree unfortunately it all of a sudden stopped working. I cannot listen to my records no more. when I go to click the button to listen, I get nothing.

Bad

Lucky I’m even giving one star. When I try to use it, it gets one word out then crashes me out of the app to my home screen. Also I can’t even hear the voices to test them. Also they all sound Caucasian✌️

Review 5star

I can’t lie i really love this app

4 étoiles

Très bien mais juste dommage qu’il n’y ai pas de bouton avec -10 et +10 sec. Vu que c’est payant ce serait bienvenue Merci.

Feedback

There’s times when I put my script in and it doesn’t read the entire thing but only reads like 4 to 12 seconds of it

Unusable

Crashing every 40 seconds or so. It’s taken me about 20 minutes to get halfway through a 7 minute piece

Human-sounding voices....

.....Yaaa! Five ***** !!

Lag issue

I would give this a 5 if not for the lag

Just wanted to inform that there seems to be a major lag when playing the text-to-speech that didn’t exist before. I noticed that the lag seems to be sweeping over all of the text and is greater on the front end but lessens as you get toward the end of you text.

So, say you want to hear how your text sounds so you initiate the player.. there is a massive lag before it starts if your text is long. Then say as you fix things and work your way down through your text, using the paragraph breaks where you can play the text at certain points, the further you get through your work, the less the lag.

I hope you can fix this as earlier versions did not do this-or if they did-it wasn't noticeable (maybe a second or two), but now it's terrible. At times I wait to hear my text read by minutes in some cases.

This is a problem especially when having to do editing. Each time this lag is there and over time, leads to a great loss of time - and deadlines are unforgiving.

Thank you

Skip

The sound is OK, but the app keeps crashing. I can’t use this app.

You all are idiots

“I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT!!” IDIOTS!! REINSTALL THE APP AND IT RESETS THE ID!! IDIOTS! ALL OF YOU! Anyways, amazing app, i don’t like how the text to speech pauses sometimes though.

Review

When I press the button to hear it out it’s not working so it’s kinda irritating 😡.

Worked once, then forces paid upgrade

I downloaded and installed it because it was free. Zero reference to a subscription required.
I got text copied in, started listening to it once and then the second time I tried to click pay > it stopped working and said I need to sign up for an on-going payment each month via subscription to listen.
It’s ridiculous to list an app for free and then allow 1 time playing (didn’t even export the audio!) and then it’s locked up.
I was trying to make the voice sound good, adjusting some settings ,and then I clicked play again and it forced a paid upgrade.

Why would you change the voices

I guess it’s okay!

text to speech

works great!

Continually ‘quit unexpectedly’ / unusable

The app seemed like a decent albeit basic and unnatural sounding text-to-speech app. Unfortunately, it kept crashing while I was wrist deep in soapy water doing dishes trying to listen to a study guide I made. This app ain’t it.

issues with text disappearing and voice playback.

have issues with text disappearing and not saving when i hit save. frusterting becuase I've gtried to do it 4 or 5 times now with the sme results.
