Speechify is absolutely brilliant. Growing up with dyslexia this would have made a big difference. I’m so glad to have it today.

iPlayText reviews

Really cool idea! The app makes it easy to search for Wikipedia articles and load them to be read. You can download more voices from the system settings app. It does take some getting used to the voice. Siri sounds great but for some reason Apple hasn’t made the same improvements to the accessibility voiceover.

Nice app. Would be perfect if we can be able to export voice data?

- Mr Outis

I am frequently multi-tasking. This app lets me do that. I copy and paste news articles while I respond to my emails and text messages.

Azure Text to Speech API reviews

Easy conversion from a voice recorded speech to text. Making speech into notes. When the user is not able to understand the speech he can leverage this API to understand what the user is trying to convey.

Accuracy of conversation is highly advanced and reliable

- Afzal H.- Senior Associate Technology

A very user friendly product with nicely built. Its good category is supporting multi language. It is best multi-language text to speech API which helped in my working space a lot.
