When combined with TTS-enabled apps, Michael can:
- give directions, allowing you to keep your eyes on the road while you're driving
- read a notification containing the caller / sender's name, and read the content of an incoming call / sms / mms / email
- read aloud your favorite e-books or pdf documents
- help you learn English by reading aloud the correct pronunciation

and much more… the possibilities are limitless!

have tried this app over and over. I have Samsung Galaxy S7 and it will not work. I paid my money and it still does not work. I even tried the free app and it does not work. Trying to find out what does work with my phone. Tired of hearing this woman's voice wanting to hear a man's voice anybody know an app that will work?

Works well, I took the time to do about 200 corrections for my own use now after I restored my phone and reinstalled all my apps I'm having a problem with importing the corrections from a previously saved export from the same app, I've written three times to the developer and with no response, I told them I can't give a good review if the product doesn't function properly. I'm updating my review, the company won't respond to emails sent to them, I purchased one of the voices and am having problems with it

W70%
by W####:

It didn't want to work anymore, every time I try to use it gives me invalid license error. Don't waste your money.

D70%
by D####:

Edit: Currently non-working on any of my devices and the author won't answer emails requesting help. I will revise once it works again. A pity, considering that this used to be the best TTS out there. ** Those who say that Svox Classic won't read long passages are dead wrong. I listen to e-books for six to eight hours a day and it rarely skips a beat. I have found that most limitations are caused by pairing it with an incompatible e-reader.

B70%

I have tried installing on 2 different devices (with 2 different lic. Purchases). Both failed to download. The email they supply for "customer service" fails. Can I give this a -1?

Used to work. Now not working anymore. What a waste of money!

I70%
by I####:

Sad to say but after paying and downloading the necessary apps the app never would work. Kept saying the svox language never downloaded and to try again later. Later would mean no refund without jumping through a bunch of hoops. Uninstalled and refunded.

Worked great until I upgraded my phone. Now it doesn't install correctly and doesn't work at all. Abandoned. Using Google's voices now.

Bad email for help. I can't get the voice to load, can't get a refund, and the help email bounces back. Don't give them your money.

Verizon pushed a software update to my Galaxy S7 Edge which caused the phone to continually cycle through boot mode. I had to eventually perform a factory reset. Now none of the svox apps will install. HELP!!!

by S####:

Besides the license issue, the contact email provided by app doesn't exist. Please return contact. If support isn't available, then stop selling your software.

Was curious to experiment with different voices, so I downloaded this. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4, and, even though the app description said that my phone was compatible, it is not.

Sounds very much like a robot. SVOX can do so much better if they tried harder. They need to put out a new version with much higher quality as other companies have beat this quality by far.

To be honest the fact that the voice data is stored on the SD Card and not in the /data/(package name) folder is disappointing. Also this application keeps showing up as a black screen in my recent apps menu. You can fix that with one line of code in the AndroidManifest.xml file. Google it. I have spoken to many other users of svox and they all agree. Please fix at least one of these issues on the next update. Then this is truly worth 5 stars.

V70%
by V####:

1 Star for not giving 15 min,to test. No refund! Not fair Please fix the server to download TTS engine kind of useless with out it. Or did your Company close and you forgot to tell us? Thank you.
