After I resetting my HTC one M7 purchased voice UK English oliver no longer it works. Shows install error. Tried several times and sent mail no response.

Good app but destroys the battery on all devices I use it on, restarts after I shut it down as well just to get the last of my battery when I have no charger in sight, would be great if they sort this out

W70%
by W####:

I'll change my rating back to 5 stars once I can use it again. It will not install on either of my devices running Android 7.0. Oliver has been reading to me for a few years. Either give him back or produce new products.

Wish I could get a refund, no even better m., make Oliver work again ... I miss his voice.

by R####:

It could make your English worse not better if you are a non native English speaker to listen to wrong pronuciation, for instance inductive is pronounced /induktaiv/ while it should be /induktiv/, and the same goes for deductive and other words.. I uninstalled it, u can find much better TTS.

This voice used to read my text messages to me on my LG G4 and it was wonderful. Then I got the marshmallow update and something broke (including my phone but that happened two weeks later). Suddenly the pitch was too low and it sounds digitized and terrible. No way to get it back to normal. So I got a brand new G4 sent to me with lollipop pre-installed, like my old one. Oliver still sounds like crap.

K70%
by K####:

Brilliant, clear and the standard that voices should be measured against. Sadly, very few apps use the API that this relies on. Customer Service is non-existent, too.

A70%

I bought this and now it doesn't work! It now shows as not supported...

G70%

Nono of the SVOX voices are supported since the Andriid 6.0 upgrade!

Stops working constantly. Not great for a paid app.

On a galaxy S6

D70%
by D####:

For the money, I fact any money. Not good enough. Stutters, and as one other person said warbles. Not fluid at all.

U70%
by U####:

I bought this a couple years ago. I've used it on 5+ devices and never had a problem. I love this voice, but it forces closed and has never worked on my S5. Please fix this!

U70%
by U####:

Been using this a long time. Paid for it and probably still have receipt from Pkay Store. Suddenly, it no longer works as default TTS and is telling me that license verification failed and to reinstall. Been there, done that, still broken. WTF?

S70%
by S####:

This worked well on my previous Samsung. Upon upgrading to a note 3 this won't open and crashes immediately. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, nothing. I paid for this app, and the fact or still does not work even after I sent several reports is a disgusting display of customer No Service.

T70%
by T####:

Worked on my old Razr M, but is bugging out on my Note 2.

T70%
by T####:

Does not work on my new Note 4...it crashes as soon as it opens and after many bug reports NOT ONE reply or response about the issue that others are all having as well...and I paid for this garbage which adds insult to injury. ...:(

T70%
by T####:

Disappointed that I can't use this anymore. It force closes every time I try to open it, which means it's useless and I wasted my money. Wish I could get a refund but it is long past time for that now. Again, disappointed.

Q70%
by Q####:

I can get this to work on every other app except navigator, voice a little fragmented

Y70%
by Y####:

Will not run . Have to jump through hoops. Shabby. It should not require me to adjust anything. I payed I should be able to just activate.

Y70%
by Y####:

Thanks for great English voice. But there is minor bug which annoys me – mdash ('–') is pronounced in every book I listen to. Fix please!
