[2012-01-03] Vetta: Mytouch 4g When Amy and American voice installed it confuses Google Navig. One direction in Brit English and the next in Am English. Could be louder. |
|
[2012-01-01] Clevo: Not bad, better then the one that came default. Works well can't complain. Thanks |
|
[2011-12-31] Eddie: Not bad. Better than phone came with. HTCTB |
|
[2011-12-29] Bryan: Issues. Good voice. Could be better, but better than anything I have come accross. Problems: she can hardly pronounce any street names correctly. Yesterday she gave me north bound directions but kept saying continue south when the google map app and I were going north... Google map voice always says first direction and then Ivona voice finally takes over, but with constant interuptions from google map voice. |

[2011-12-23] Sugarfoot1001: No ICS Doesn't yet work on Nexus S Official Ice Cream Sandwich |
|
[2011-12-22] Ambious: No ICS support |
|
[2011-12-21] leorah: Awesome! HOW TO MAKE IT WORK- install it, then turn your phone off, then back on. Your welcome. |
|
[2011-12-17] the 12/18/2011 Not working on ICS Cannot be used with ice cream sandwich |
|
[2011-12-14] Dakiro: Very good It is very good and fluent. I am very satisfied with the quality of the voice. Now I don't need the kindle so much, this one is better for reading books aloud. |
|
[2011-12-14] LouisAdekoya: No ICS Support? Works well on my galaxy tab but crashes on my galaxy nexus. |
|
[2011-12-13] Dark: Wonderful voice.. Beautiful voice production, some minor bugs occasionally...for instance she cannot distinguish percentage values -especially decimals. Me likes! :) |
|
[2011-12-12] Mitch: Disappointing! Takes quite some time to answer, then often skips. Voice that's supplied with Skyvi isn't as natural, but works far better. |
|
[2011-12-09] runamonk: Update for ics please. |
|
[2011-12-08] kev: Need ICS support! I would love to give it a shot, but it's not supported on Ice Cream Sandwich. To be fair, my Galaxy Nexus does not appear to allow changing TTS engine |
|
[2011-12-08] Alex: sloooooooow download Every time I try to download the voice file it takes ages and then fails with a network error. If you can't provide infrastructure to support the demand then don't offer the product. Waste of time! |
|
[2011-12-08] Miguel.Andrade: Excellent voice In my opinion Amy from ivona is the best text to speech UK English voice available. I am an avid user of text to speech technology, both on Mac and PC |
|
[2011-12-07] David: Oh ello! |
|
[2011-12-05] daniel: Galaxy nexus It's a shame that would not work the reviews look good text to speech settings are missing once installed hopefully they will fix |
|
[2011-12-04] julie: xoom forces close Doesn't run on xoom honeycomb 3.2 |
|
[2011-12-02] DGS1969: Too buggy even for beta - Very promising but very buggy. Strange american voice often cuts in over correct voice. |
|
[2011-12-01] Lauriefire: Ivona Amy Will not install onto galaxy nexus. force close. uninstalled. Shame |
|
[2011-11-25] Owain: HD2 American android It amazing on my pc, but dose not work on HD2. Please fix so it can work with htc HD2 American android . Many Thanks |
|
[2011-11-19] King Louis: Galaxy Nexus Bug Doesn't install the TTS settings and forces close every time |
|
[2011-11-19] DocAltMed: Does not work on galaxy Even after correctly changing my settings, no voice is produced. Galaxy II s. |
|
[2011-11-19] Claudio: Excellent voice, but please add male voices too Excellent voice, one of my favorites even on PC. For UK English this voice is great. But please add some male voices too. For instance, I heard the samples of the new Italian voices and the man sounds much more natural. Hope you will offer it on Android too. |
|
[2011-11-17] Richard: Couple of problems, says 'ayes' fo eyes, 'jiven' for given, 'escap' for escape, 'klaus' for claws. Has some weird inflections sometimes. |
|
[2011-11-16] Christopher: Excellent Very natural. Better than svox. |
|
[2011-11-15] Jay, URQUHART: Gets the job done, this is alot better than then the default voice. |
|
[2011-11-14] Nick: Fantastic Very clear. However on google nav I seem to get American and britsh voices happening for different scenarios. |
|
[2011-11-13] Kamran: So natural! The voice is too natural to believe! |
|
[2011-11-13] 'Grzegorz: Amy Good app but volume is weak |
|
[2011-11-13] Gadget: Thanks for the update What a fantastic improvement, I'll definitely be using the my phones navigation now. I've set the speed to slow but that's my personal preference. Amy is so clear & natural, fingers crossed the quality will be the same in the future releases. |
|
[2011-11-13] gsaldivar: Amazing! The best TTS on Android!! A few minor bugs: The word "treeline" is spoken as "trline", and "mmm" is spoken as "em-em-em". The latest update also seems to be a bit more memory intensive than the last version, some stuttering occurs on my Thunderbolt when using Moon Reader and Navigator at the same time. Other than those minor issues, this is an excellent product!!! |
|
[2011-11-12] Minh: Great. I think it deserves full 5 stars Let's wait how much its price tag will be for android. The size after update is not reduced as claimed, stills ~230 mb ie no external sd option. |
|
[2011-11-12] /Chris Z: . Incredible quality. SGS2 |
|
[2011-11-12] Twinkle: Extraordinarily good quality! I have never heard synthetic voice this good before. Inflection and emphasis may be slightly off at times, but rarely. |
|
[2011-11-12] gc: A under rated app. This should be included in Android by default. The voice quality is clear, loud and does not sound synthetic. Is this really a machine talking? Because one if my friends wo didn't know I had yhis installed, mistaken the voice as a real person talking. |
|
[2011-11-12] sergei: Wow! Good update! Now its loud and clea!Very pleasant life like voice .No SD Card option! And why sometimes American accent instead of British ? |
|
[2011-11-12] klaus e. werner: Download a bit slow Download is slow (250MB for just UK-English!) but the resulting voice is very, very good. Highly recommended! |
|
[2011-11-12] gontadu: Way better than the rest! |
|
[2011-11-11] jason: Love, love, love her! Voice is amazingly realistic beautiful. |
|
[2011-11-10] Malcolm: Volume Voice to soft which makes it difficult to hear. |
|
[2011-11-09] Johnny: Better or Alternative for Navigation plus Emoticon This is definitely NOT bad for a Beta TTS. But you guys need to have a better Navigation AI. like using Dr. or Blvd. or St. Your Ivona speaks it as Dee-R not Drive Also need to do what Loquendo does with Emoticon. Happy face should make Ivon speak in a happier tone. LOL should make her "laugh" instead of speaking L-O-L. Otherwise this pretty nice |
|
[2011-11-09] etsme: Great Like a recorded voice |
|
[2011-11-05] Ratchawut: Free And work great |
|
[2011-11-02] Chris: 250M of phone memory - Seriously? Great product except for that one (fatal) flaw. Needs to use SD card. Don't understand why that is so hard... |
|
[2011-10-27] mike: Dosn't work on Samsung II wifi 5 When I get to the screen where you are supposed enable it the check box won't light up. Tried it with the other chexkbox both ways. Please fix. |
|
[2011-10-25] tungmeister: very good very good quality voice but far too quiet, boost the volume and i'll 5 star it. |
|
[2011-10-24] martin: Works lovely. Space doesn't bother me as not an issue on sgs2. Better than svox which I thought was the best until now |
|
[2011-10-24] Mohd Zaki: Overall it ok but make my phone laggy to start application which use it, should make it can be control for speed & louder. |
|
[2011-10-20] Aaron: Too big for my phone Sounds like it would be great, but needs more internal phone storage than my HTC phone has. Needs to use SD storage. |
|
[2011-10-19] Nico: Crap Won't even download, and I got 43mb free space. Guys, just have it download to the sd card... |
|
[2011-10-14] Mark: Over priced.huge Size. Constantly needs to be reset. Deleted. |
|
[2011-10-07] John: great tool we gave you 5 stars if you made it louder |
|
[2011-10-07] Hans-Peter Stoerr: Absolutely amazing voice quality, but memory prob I found the quality of the voice absolutely amazing. You can easily and comfortably listen to texts. But to put 30 MB on internal memory and no way to put it on SD? That's madness, considering the small internal memory of many devices (I have 200MB)! Please rework this! |
|
[2011-10-07] Sid: Voice is great but really! You can't even make the voice louder? |
|
[2011-10-06] Germán: The data file is huge 250MB, after many tries I haven't been able to download it due it fails and restart downloading again over and over. |
|
[2011-10-06] jibril: Ha ha Are you guys crazy??? A big file then ,you want people to buy??? Needs to be free ! |
|
[2011-10-03] j: Not free I will not buy. If they provided it free then it is OK but is not worth to buy.... |
|
[2011-09-24] Thomas : 250 WHAT?????? MAN ARE YOU NUTTS???? |
|
[2011-09-15] Daniel: The best tts voice but can sometimes be very laggy- nexus s |
|
[2011-09-13] Ted: Very accurate natural speech Bionic |
|
[2011-09-10] Tony: Very good voice, far better than anything svox. |
|
[2011-09-06] Greg: Doesnt work Doesnt install |
|
[2011-09-01] Jeremy Krueger-Pack: Superb!! Amy has become something like a dear friend on my long daily commutes. She reads my books beautifully! |
|
[2011-08-18] the 8/31/2011 I think you could do better With the voice It's more like a Robot |
|
[2011-08-17] BigBird: superior pronunciation accuracy and smooth reading of SMS massages, maps, navigation, ebooks, and text from all applications that use speech synthesis |
|
[2011-08-16] Daniel: Very nice voice I thought this didn't work initially but you need to set language to English first before it starts talking! Thank you for the best voice on market :) |
|
[2011-08-15] Mark: High quality but a little flakey. Switches back to std voice on occasion for no apparent reason. SVOX almost as good and more reliable. Desire HD |
|
[2011-08-08] Glen an: Sometimes changes accent ,also app to SD would be good ,svox has it |
|
[2011-08-07] Sam: Lack of SD option kills use on my HTC Desire. I'm lucky if 8mb is free! SD = 1gb+! |
|
[2011-07-30] Priyank Bolia: Not free only trial, junk quality, hangs a lot. Doesn't work as smooth as loquendo voices. |
|
[2011-07-25] Carl: Nice but doesnt work for me on sgs2 Just downloaded it, it does not work with sgs2 kf3 fw unfortunately. |
|
[2011-07-20] KeroDean: My phone doesn't have 250mb of internal space, please allow SD card install |
|
[2011-07-19] Mat Cauthon: Sexy voice. I prefer this to Kendra. |
|
[2011-07-12] Steve: The voice is amazingly realistic, particularly when compared to the rather lame pico tts software installed on the phone. |
|
[2011-07-05] John: Please allow installation to microSD card. |
|
[2011-06-29] Kerry: Not bad, but... volume is too low and need to be able to move file to SD card. |
|
[2011-06-25] Harold (Jay): Using an Incredible 2. In love with the voice. She reads my notifications using Voice Notify as well as Navigation. Highly recommend on newer devices. |
|
[2011-06-24] okatetsu: excellent voice, but, sd card installation please!!! |
|
[2011-06-23] Dave: Very clear but file size is a joke and can't move to SD card |
|
[2011-06-20] Tristam: Demos sound good, but... Tried British English Amy on the online demo however when it came to installing on the HTC Legend, there was insufficient internal storage for the voice data files. Would be useful if it could be installed to SD card. |
|
[2011-06-17] marmarama: British English Amy is the best general speech synthesizer I've heard anywhere ever. Not flawless yet but VERY impressive. |
|
[2011-06-16] pavol.zibrita: Can't be installed on SD card. HTC Desire. Won't fit in memory. |
|
[2011-06-09] Aru: Ridiculous memory requirements, and won't install to SD card. Droid Incredible. |
|
[2011-05-25] Łukasz: Amazing, works perfectly, galaxy s II |
|
[2011-05-23] Bigmac: Far too big. Sounds nice, but libraries are FAR too big....sucks up way too much of the space on my phone. Going back to Pico as it's over 100 times smaller. |
|
[2011-05-21] Francois: Very impressive synthetic voice. Space is not an issue for me so I give 5 stars. Careful if you have a lower end device (need lots of memory) |
|
[2011-05-20] Ken: Will not install - requires 250MB of phone space. Even if I had no apps installed there isn't that much available. |
|
[2011-05-19] Ivona: best voice in the world, galaxy tab |
|
