HFT (Hands Free Texting)
$0.77About HFT (Hands Free Texting)
Ever want to continue a text conversation while driving? Do you receive texts and have to pull to the side of the road just to read them? Not anymore! HFT (Hands Free Texting) is an app
that will solve all of these annoying problems, all while keeping you totally safe when driving.
HFT will allow you to hear who is texting you, either read or ignore the incoming message, hear it again, and then respond, all using your voice. HFT won’t just immediately send a message either -- we all know that sometimes voice recognition isn’t totally accurate, so HFT will replay the message before sending so that you can avoid any embarrassing messages if your voice is not recognized properly.
Unlike most voice recognition apps, HFT is compatible with both bluetooth headsets and in-car devices. In addition, HFT gives you the choice to automatically turn off voice notifications when your device is in silent or vibrate mode, without you having to worry about it. Turning HFT on or off is as simple as tapping the homescreen widget, which glows red to tell you that it is running. A status bar notification will also let you know that you’re ready to text hands-free.
When it comes to safety, peace of mind, and convenience, there is nothing better than being able to continue texting with your eyes safely on the road or whatever else you may be doing, and HFT makes it happen seamlessly and effortlessly.
HFT, it's cheaper then getting a ticket for texting while driving.

The app performs better than any of the other similar apps I've tried. Would be nice if it could mark the texts that it reads aloud as 'read' so they wouldn't show up as unread on the phone.. Using on a Samsung Note 4 but had same result on Galaxy Nexus in the past.

Leaves an icon on the notification bar up top. I have enough icons there. 5 stars and recommendations if fixed.

This app has no error handling in place for when Google services are not found. When the app attempts to connect and can't, it locks up the hands free on in my car forcing me to have to take out the phone and click on try again or cancel on the phone. 99% of the time it doesn't work. Get text messages by the dozens while connected to hands free. Most times it does nothing.

What I've been looking for. Works with my car's bluetooth (Optima). Wanted something to read text while driving and then respond to that text. (LG G2)

I tried many other hands free apps that purported to do what this one does; none of them delivered. This is the only one that actually reads my texts to me through my bluetooth earpiece. The only feature it does not have is the ability to initiate a text - if I receive a text I can respond to it, but I cannot send someone a text hands free. Still, well worth the cost of the full version upgrade.

Had problems with my bionic hearing my response through the bluetooth. Had tried about every hands free texting app I could find but they all had the same problem. Emailed all of them and this dev was the only one to respond. Works great now.

This app works perfect on my Galaxy Nexus. Many times in the past two days have I received texts in the car, and able to respond to them perfectly using my bluetooth! The app pauses my music and does its magic! As well, this app is great for playing video games as I don't have to touch my phone and can still be engaged in a good game of DOTA or something else. Would recommend to everyone I know.

Works great - no issues with in-car Bluetooth. Voice prompts are quick and responsive. Great devs!

I have an HTC one x. This app has worked very well. It needs to allow more time to for the user to speak his or her message before repeating what has been said. I'm from the south, and we tend to speak more slowly. The voice often begins reading back before the message is completely dictated, especially if you pause for more than a second. Other than that I am very pleased.

I tried to use it with my Bluetooth as advertised, however trying two different headsets it does not work. Within 10 minutes no refund!!!!!

Of all the apps for hands free texting, this is the only one I've found that doesn't require me to leave my car set on "Bluetooth input". I can listen to the radio and texts come thru and pause things until I'm done. I can listen to incoming texts and respond (not send an automated "canned" response) without letting go of the wheel or touching my phone. Just what I wanted.
