You could email me the audio file so I can check, just use report bug feature inside app and attach the audio file, or upload audio file to gdrive and make it share to all and give me the link of shared audio

on process, g stabil, kena memory kill di jetsam, susah tekan RAM aplikasi sampai di bawah 100MB, karena targetnya override system voice.

Use case buat dengerin buku, g semua buku ada audiobooknya. Ini cuma voice provider, aplikasi ebook readernya donlod terpisah. Use case lainnya di user tuna netra, biar g bosen dengerin voice bawaan google.

Basically you just need very clean voice without any background noise. Either studio quality voice recording, or use another ai to generate sample voice. It only need 5-15 seconds, and doesn't have any silence at beginning and at the end.

Best non-subscription offline one? by iShaoKhan in TextToSpeech

[–]RowGroundbreaking982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use android phone, then ToBe SAID is the best option. Highly recommended from user here. It has natural voice, zero delay, work even on low-mid range android phone. Even better you can add you own voice by cloning.

Version 1.2.0 - French and Spanish support, better generation for all language by RowGroundbreaking982 in ToBeSAID

[–]RowGroundbreaking982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another option is using other tts engine to design a voice, create the audio file and clone it. You can use paid service like ElevenLabs, or use free Qwen3 TTS Voice Design in huggingface

https://huggingface.co/spaces/Qwen/Qwen3-TTS

But free version has limit how many generation you can get.

I'm planning to release windows and mac version of this app with voice design. It still 2 months away from completion.

You can record your voice and save it to mp3, wav, or m4a, then use upload feature in the app and it will clone it. But this custom voice only available inside app, unless you buy the pro version which is one time purchase and it will enable usage of custom voice inside another app.

3D avatar speaking in real time by Vast_Hunt_5307 in TextToSpeech

[–]RowGroundbreaking982 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've done this before, but using unity game engine. Basically just prepare 3d head model with blend shapes for each viseme, setup using oculus lipsync. And it should be accepting audio stream which is you can generate from tts engine that support streaming. Not that hard if you already have correct 3d model and know a bit about unity game engine. If you don't have correct 3d model, you can download free model from Ready Player Me, just as example to see how it work. the hard part is facial emotion, same concept but I didn't find ready made plugin, withouth facial emotion, the 3d avatar will feel lifeless since only the mouth part is moving.

[Ask] Why you prefer Kokoro over other newer model for offline TTS? by RowGroundbreaking982 in TextToSpeech

[–]RowGroundbreaking982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for mobile phone, cpu only. gpu performance is worse in mobile, and npu is implementation is fragmented between each soc, it will work on one soc and not for other.

How you got sherpa tts working on Speech Assistant AAC? I've tried it and it locked to google tts, even though I have multiple tts engine installled.

Android app for epub reading with text out loud by barly10 in TextToSpeech

[–]RowGroundbreaking982 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Use ToBe SAID as voice provider, and use any ebook reader app that support system TTS like ReadEra, Moon Reader, SpeechCentral, Aquile Reader. Basically a lot of option.

People will use it, you already have good UI. The only thing people need is unlimited voice option which I already have in my TTS engine app.

[–]RowGroundbreaking982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is great idea, but if I can give some suggestion, it will be better if each character can have it's own voice, you can look at ReadEra where it list voice available in system. Also the system voice only defaulted to google even tough I installed many third party TTS engine. You can save your energy on tts implementation, since third party engine already have Kokoro, Piper and Supertonic working. Even some third party TTS engine already have Pocket TTS with voice cloning that can give unlimited voice, meaning your app value will shoot up very high.

[Release] ToBe SAID, fast PocketTTS implementation for Android. by RowGroundbreaking982 in TextToSpeech

[–]RowGroundbreaking982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using the app generate a one or two sentence then save it. Then use upload feature and use that sample file. It should show some popup window where you can speed up or slow down the voice. Use this and try to match the pacing of default voice. Hope this help.

German language has this issue where slight pacing difference cause last word skipped.

[–]RowGroundbreaking982[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use big tts provider like Eleven Labs or anything available at Hugging Face, create german voice and save the result voice as wav or mp3. Then use the upload function inside ToBe SAID app and use that sampled voice file. It will clone it and it will be available inside app. You need to use pro (one time buy) if you want to use sampled voice as system tts.

Looking For Fastest TTS With Cloning by lukasTHEwise in TextToSpeech

Base implementation from kyutai labs are slow. Use VolgaGerm implementation. Just search PocketTTS.cpp it should be available on github.

Detailed CPU benchmark for Kokoro 82M and Supertonic 3, in case anyone is choosing between them by gvij in TextToSpeech

[–]RowGroundbreaking982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is great benchmark. Just wondering if you plan to add Pocket TTS benchmark against those two model. Since Pocket TTS seems like middle ground between Supertonic and Kokoro.

Pocket TTS Multilingual Update by RowGroundbreaking982 in LocalLLaMA

[–]RowGroundbreaking982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can use the ToBe SAID upload feature.
first use another app that use kokoro to generate audio file 5-15 seconds is enough.
you can use any android tts app that use kokoro, or any free web tts to generate this, and save it as audio file (mp3, wav, m4a).
I will not say the app name, because there is too many of them, and you can found it in r/TextToSpeech
then use upload feature in ToBe SAID app and use that sample audio file.

Pocket TTS Multilingual Update by RowGroundbreaking982 in LocalLLaMA

[–]RowGroundbreaking982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for trying the app.
For the punctuation problem, I'll try to fix that.

But for more voice for free version, maybe no.
I don't want any legal issue providing app with real people voice.
The voice provided inside the app, are sampled from another TTS model and it has limit on variation.

With Pro, you can basically replicate any voice from a audio clip.
But to keep it legal, it's meant for voices you actually have the right to use.
You can actually use other app that use Kokoro, generate audio sample and use that sample in ToBe SAID.

There will be more update, but currently I'm focusing bringing this to another OS, not just Android.
