Это как раз тот случай про поговорку на безрыбьи и рак рыба. Как-то так. Широкий выбор голосов подменяет качество - это про свокс. Наверно так устанавливаются все tts модули, но в итоге когда необходима озвучка английских слов, то возникает необходимость вручную переключаться на стандартный tts, что не удобно или (как я подозреваю), купить ещё и английский голос, что при наличии вполне вменяемого стандартного - довольно странно, а ведь есть еще ивона...
Не работает установка!
License error message, said it needs an internet connectivity
Keeps force closing on galaxy s4
Меняю отзыв ввиду решения проблемы: штатный Goggle TTS должен быть включен и обновлен, тогда все работает.
Not updated. Not supported. Ugly for mixed eng/rus texts. Google TTS is already better.

Very nice, but makes many mistakes in names. SVOX has pronunciation correction feature, but it doesn't help in every case. It's possible to add some spaces to fix it sometimes (to say 'кОля' instead of 'колЯ' just write it as 'Ко ля' - Russian name). But no way to put stress to the end of the word, for example.

To cut it shortly, this is the best and most natural Russian voice available for Android (female Katja voice is too distorted). It's not absolutely perfect, there are problems indeed like stress mistakes, but most of the time it's very good, warm and natural. In general, it's very, very close to natural human voice, great for reading books and navigation. Some of my Russian friends didn't believe at first that it's a synthesised voice, not an audio book read by a professional actor.
the voice is distorted. god help you on pronunciation. Czech and German are crystal clear though!
I have SVOX RUSSIAN - Yuriy which I use with Moon+ Reader Pro. SVOX works for 5-7 minuts and then skips 10-40 sentences and stops to work.
Constantly asks to reinstall application.
