User Reviews

Layout and file system interaction nice. Rather buggy but fixable, though the bugs drive me from it at the moment. - doesn’t apply a change in default new voice to new reading files — change from default to “Max” but keeps applying default to new files. - doesn’t apply selecting a new voice if altered in-document, have to “preview” first - selection goes back to non-configured default voice if app closed and opened again. - if I delete a file and replace it with one of a different format, keeps reading old file / old voice

The app would slow down on larger words or not pronounce the word correctly. I had some trouble adjusting the reading speed the way it is played out. This was the very first attempt at using the app. I figured with the results I had after that, I’d try something else.
