Contact Text to Speech Support

Really the only thing this app has that other text-to-speech apps don't have is the iSpeech voices. Other than that, it's really nothing special at all. My biggest complaint is that you can't use the voices without an internet connection. With other high quality TTS apps (such as Voice Reader by Linguatec, or Speak It! by Future Apps, Inc.), if you purchase a voice, that voice is downloaded to your phone, and you can use it with no internet connection required. With this app, however, even if you pay for a voice, you don't technically get it. You just get to access it on iSpeech's servers. Then, as I discovered today, it can only handle a few sentences at a time. Anything more than that, and it doesn't read it. So basically, I paid to not have the voices on my phone, to only have access to them through an internet connection, and to have the app not read any text if I put more than a paragraph into the text window. Also, as I am blind, I use the VoiceOver accessibility feature on my iPhone. The app doesn't allow me to view all eight pages of available voices when using VoiceOver; I can only select from the voices on the first page. My advice to anyone looking for a good text-to-speech application: DON'T GET THIS ONE! Go with either Speak It! or Voice Reader. They've got better voices, control of voice speed, pitch and volume, and a lot more features that this app doesn't have.

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!
