SMALL AND FAST
eSpeak NG uses formant synthesis instead of recorded speech, so the engine and all its voices fit in a small download and work without an internet connection. It uses little battery and stays clear at very high speeds, which is why screen reader users who read fast like it.

MADE FOR SCREEN READER USERS
Designed for TalkBack users and tested with TalkBack. The voices install automatically on first launch, and if eSpeak NG isn't your default voice yet, the home screen takes you straight to the setting. The Reader can be controlled from the notification.
