My husband had a stroke. This helped sooo much. He Hayes asking me to read his messages. Now he can just hear them. Ty for this

[noname-hzsf]

Oh my god, why is it so hard to find a clear explanation of how to do this? You're a HERO.

[THEWHOLEEYE]

Finally a video that actually show how to use Text-to-Speech. Thank you, this is a great video.

[NsVsEls]

This is not just the only video explaining this. It's also the source of actual clear explanation.
Thank you so much, my dude.

Thank you, thank you! I almost purchased a Kindle Fire just to get text to speech. Most of the videos for this are from years ago and don't show how to do it on a newer Samsung. You just saved me over $250. I so appreciate this.

This is the one thing I miss about iPhone. This is too complicated and gets in the way. On iPhone you just highlight text and press speak. Why cant Android do this?

[vampbat]

Thank you. I was almost in tears trying to get this to work. (Using the S Pen to activate the selection box / area is very frustrating. I recommend using your finger on mobile devices instead.)

[heckensteiner]

You are a lifesaver! For an accessibility feature, they sure make it as difficult as possible to enable!

[MNMful]

Thank you very much for this tutorial! You're The Man! I have low vision, so I desperately need this feature on my new phone. i spoke to 2 Samsung and neither of them seemed to know about this app. Thank agin for your clear and concise video.

[brendanfogel]

It should just be there as an option when you highlight texts

[thecosmicloaf]

Thank you for this. Just set this up on my daughters phone, it has helped her so much. Thanks !

[sweetiekjj]

Thank you very much. I don't have some of the things you have though. Don't have the settings button on my select to speech.

[Wolksby]

Many thanks for a helpful and succinct guide! I have one question. I would like to use it to read out loud a Kindle file/book.

It will certainly read any individual page perfectly. As you show, it's also able to select within the page, what you want it to read.

I think there is a button >| that takes you to the next page, which is good

But, what I'm after is a way to make it continually turn the pages, without any physical intervention from me?

I like to use Audible at night, and if I could find a way to make the Text to Speech function in the same fashion, that'd be great!

Have you any thoughts? My phone is a Samsung S23 Ultra.

Many thanks, in anticipation, Philip (UK)

I would like an app that reads the full document. No need to turn pages or adjust the screen.

But this was very helpful. Thanks 😇 🙏🏾 😊

[bonnitacazares]

Thanks again...😅 I got a new phone again, and I needed your video for the 5th time to help set this up. ❤ I can not live without it.

[stevelowry]

thank you for your knowledge. one question I need the option to read multiple pages that are available without having to restart the app on each page. How do I set the app so that it continuously reads from one page to the next page and so on?

Words cannot represent my thanks to you, i have try many efforts to learn this until I saw your video, thanks😊

[laibaamjad]

Thank you so much ❤❤❤ study game has become much more easier now ....i can hear the text without having to put strain on my eyes

[lauragreenly]

Thank you so much for this! I was considering switching to apple bc of this feature but now that i found out how to do it on samsung i am so excited!

[textdriven]
