Features
Drag or paste text into Speech and start playback. You can change the voice and the speech rate at any time.

Speech can also convert a text into an audio file that you can easily share or play on a portable music player.
- No more doubts about pronunciation.
- Save time: listen to your texts instead of reading them.
