    Alternative text to speech options

    I have a TTS engine Android app which allows for much higher quality TTS options than just those in my default Android settings (Samsung and Google TTS).

    Voice

    Text To Speech - Chinese Language iOS vs English iOS

    I bought the Audio Pronunciation (male) some time ago. Today I compared the pronunciation on my iPhone running the current iOS against my Taiwan (working in China) teacher’s Pleco TTS pronunciation with no add on modules. My speech is ‘choppy’, perhaps as expected from the 11 MB download size...

    My experiences with Pleco -> Anki droid. Some improvements that Pleco could use.
