In this video, I talk about and demonstrate the Text To Speech options in Android. TalkBack, Voice Assistant, and Select To Speak. All Android users will have TalkBack and Select To Speak, while Samsung users get a third option with Voice Assistant. These screen readers can be extremely helpful for visually impaired users, as well as many others!

samsung galaxy a22 select-to-speak settings
Why the hell is this video so long??????!!!!!!!!
https://youtu.be/oJSwty-cmkU
It used to read back the comment sections now it only reads comments that you're typing.. I don't know why when they updated it it stopped. Something else you used to do with it I don't know if you still can on the new version. Take a picture of something with print on it and it will read you the print that's in whatever picture you took..
I would take one of my older devices that will still allow me to do that and do screenshots and take a picture of things at the store and it would read it to me
Really helpful thanks

Hi, im succesful your video, thank you
Thank you. I was looking for text to speech instead of talk back
Thank you. Exactly what I'm looking for.
I am a primarily iOS user however my friend is gonna loan me his android phone so I can learn to use talkback. I am looking for a good email user list to subscribe to. Can you recommend one thanks
TalkBack is CRAP! Hardly managed to turn it back off.
get to it wow
I need voice commands audio and both ways text and make shopping orders and can I take pick of document and have it read to me?
This was so fucking help for
Apple's select to speech is perfect other than in ibooks it drags really slowly. Androids text-to-speech seems like it was made by a torturous. Just make it so you can select text …but but know when you hit select text or select text and then hit that little button man on the bottom of the screen it does nothing other than reads everything on the screen even the menu of copy and paste. Funny my iPad Mini 1 and old apple phone years ago had selected text speech and Android still hasn't accomplished that. I mean seriously there's more illiterate people in America than there are blind people I mean come on Americans need to learn to read.
Hey brother, thank you, do you know if I can get my Google assistant to speak back what I type as a voice recognition? I know iphones have this unique feature. I'd like to set up something I write and activate the assistant to say it back.
Thank you so much
o
Nice ❤️❤️
Big thanks. I didn't know that the select to speak even exist
Can you explain about how we can turn off our talk to speech in Android
For me it is really difficult to talk physically. I am medically tongue tied I was diagnosed when I was a year old.
I used text to speech apps to talk to people. I must admit it takes time to write what I to say something.
I was hoping to watch this video to speed up the texting to talk process. Do you have any recommendations for my problem?
I speak like Steven Hawkes but, slower. I am asking because this year I am starting college to get my PhD in astrophysics… lol I have cerebral palsy in my left arm n left leg.
I want to prove that I can make something out of nothing. I don't want to bore you with all the technicalities. There's no correlation between me n, Steven Hawkes.
🥶👌🏾
Select to spea
k has a lot of trouble reading hypertext. Is there any fix for this?
