Text-to-speech settings –
use the Text-to-speech settings
to configure the Android text-to-
speech synthesiser for applications
that can use this feature.
NOTE: if you don't have speech
synthesiser data installed, only
the Install voice data setting is
available.

Listen to an example: plays
a brief sample of the speech
synthesiser, using your current
settings.

Always use my settings:
tick to use the settings on
this screen in place of speech
synthesiser settings available in
other applications.

•
Install voice data: if your
phone does not have speech
synthesiser data installed, this
connects to Android Market and
guides you through the process
of downloading and installing the
data. This setting is not available
if the data is already installed.
•
Speech rate: opens a dialog
where you can select how
quickly you want the synthesiser
to speak.
•
Language: opens a dialog
where you can select the
language of the text you
want the synthesiser to read.
This is particularly useful in
combination with Always use
my settings to ensure that text
is spoken correctly in a variety of
applications.

Pico TTS: configure the Pico
TTS settings.
