Text to speech that brings productivity vs Speech Assistant AAC

I am an Author of children's books and use this product in proofreading. It is outstanding. The natural sounding voice makes it seem like a human is reading it. The software actually sees and understands punctuation. The voice changes on question marks, to sound as if they have a question. The commas are read as commas, with a pause. I highly recommend this AP for reading and assistance in reading as well as the proofreading of any type of material. Great job.

This app is unique and well worth purchase to get backup and restore option. Great app especially for tablet. Larger keyboard makes composing easy. Backup option makes it easy to transfer changes between devices with email and restore function. I have app on phone and tablet. I noticed speech loss when using 4.2 Bluetooth devices. Thanks to email exchange with developer, we found that using Bluetooth 5 speakers stopped loss and all words and phrases are spoken. Thanks Ton

Great app. Have a week or so of vocal rest and liked the app enough to pay to upgrade. Couple of things tho: I have noticed it sort of supports SSML.. a lot of the google TTS SSML doesn't work. Do you have a list of things supported? Could you add SSML features (pauses and emphasis) into the app interface to be able to make phrases sound less robotic and more natural? Could you add some hot buttons for MP3 sound bites? I like the "Notification" option.. but being able to add a bunch of easily playable sound bites would be perfect. The app is almost there... these things would flesh it out some more. Great job, guys! PS: one other thing.. love that I can edit on the computer and restore the file! PPS: How about a backup option for *all* the settings in the app?

Fantastic This app has been a huge help to me after I permanently lost my ability to speak in January. It is very user friendly and easy to personalize. I really like the feature where the text can be shown in large print. I had used a similar app that allowed me to use my own pre-recorded voice, but I ended up coming back to Speech Assistant AAC due to its ease of use. This is the best app I have ever used! It has truly been a blessing.
