Text to Speech -

I use this app to memorize my speaking parts in my Masonic Youth Organization. It was always very good for that, since I’m an auditory and visual learner. I can read over the part while listening to someone speak to it, and I can recite it along with the speaker. The best part was I could save the audio so I could listen to it again as many times as I wanted. Overall a very good app, it had all the tools I needed in the free version. However, I reduced one star since after the most recent update all of my saved audio was gone. I was upset, because I spent a lot of time typing those speaking parts. I guess it wouldn’t hurt to type them again since it would help me remember, but I’d rather not have do that since it took so much time to type them. Other than that this app is perfect for this purpose. I recommend it. I just hope this doesn’t happen again.

Newest Edit: Figured it out! When you open the app and it takes you to the free trial/ purchase option screen- look at the top left corner- There will be an option to continue with the limited version. This way you will at least have access to use the app- though you don’t have all of the fancy options and voices. To the developer- Thank You for keeping this option open! It seems hard for people to find- but it means a lot none the less that it is still there! I’ve been using this app for years- and it has been a wonderful experience. It worked out great for me because the voice I particularly use was free- and if I needed a different voice then I could choose to buy them. App just updated- gives you a three day free trial and then charges you $9.99 a week!!! 🤬 I am going to miss this app- but at the end of my three days I will probably never use it again if it stays this way. I am happy to change my review if it ever gets fixed. Hopefully the developer is listening! Edit: After consideration (even though it is still a gouge) I would pay a one time $10 price for this app. Maybe the developer should consider that instead?

I got this app to help me study. I find it much easier to follow my notes when I can listen to them. Its really simple and easy to use. Just copy everything and paste it in then hit play. The voices it comes with are pretty good. I don't have a problem understanding what they are saying. But one time I accidentally picked the wrong language. I honestly had no idea what I was listening to for a few seconds. Overal this is a pretty useful app. I would recommend it. UPDATE: Some of my previous messages were lost after the update, but I was a add them back. Just make sure you remember what you had if you listen to your recording frequently.

I originally got this app because I liked being able to save speeches. The voices were good, didn’t sound much like a text to speech program, and I had fun making Bush and Obama argue. However, since the new update came out (“iSpeech TTS” to “Text to Speech”), I have deleted it. Not only can I not save unlimited speeches, but I lost the two voices I paid for, and can’t get them back, and now I have to pay FOURTY dollars to get them all?! If it was closer to $3 or even $5 I may do it, but $40 is way too much, and the developers are just milking money now. Not to mention, I don’t know what happened, but the voices do not sound realistic anymore. They are worse than Siri! They also want me to pay another $40 PER MONTH to be able to save unlimited speeches. Sorry, but I’m not about to pay $80 for different sounding Siri thank you very much! Would NOT recommend this app. Just use Siri.

Just downloaded the app and accidentally agreed to their ridiculous subscription of $9.99 A WEEK! Now if maybe a decent price ( say $9.99 a month) then it would be no problem, but a week? Bye. If anyone else has made this mistake ( and im sure many have since it’s so sneaky and sudden) to cancel the subscription you go to your email linked to your apple store account and find their email, then scroll to the bottom to ( review your subscription) and click it. After hat their should be an option to “unsubscribe”. You’re welcome. These devs should be a shamed of themselves, they don’t even have a website and as far as i can see, they don’t even bother to help people in this situation. This should be removed from the app store!
