Made with love by an AAC user with selective mutism.
I’m an SLP who is having problems with my voice, and this app was exactly what I was looking for. It gives all the important options I needed- speak as I type, by word or phrase, or speak on tapping. Great app!
Very helpful
ChaoticBat
I have had to rely on text to voice apps for years at this point. Most either have horrible speech patterns or want $100+ for premium use (which are normal sounding voices and other tools). So I’ve stuck with one that was free, but caused duress because some times people couldn’t understand what was being spoken. My husband found this app and showed it to me. I haven’t had it long, but the options for both iPhone and android (he’s an android user) are awesome! The voices sound really good and the speech pattern is amazing. You can even send the voice spoken text in a text message. The creators of this app genuinely care about helping people! This is going to be a life changer for me.
- "Speak as you type" now lets you choose any combination of characters, words, and sentences.
- You can now resize the primary buttons (play, stop, etc.) and hide the expand button.
Contact me at support@miyanour.com if you find bugs, have suggestions, etc. Thank you so much!
