Copy To Read - Text to Speech 2.6.003

Copy To Read - Text to Speech provides a convenient solution for those who prefer listening to text rather than reading it. This text reading app allows users to have copied text read back to them through a text-to-speech feature. With the ability to read text from any app upon copying, users can effortlessly engage with the content they want to hear.

During the reading process, users have control over playback through a notification interface. This feature enables users to pause, stop, skip forward, or skip backward through sentences within the copied text. Thus, ensuring a seamless and customizable listening experience.

Guidance on how to use Copy To Read - Text to Speech is provided in two options based on Android versions:

• Option 2 (Android 6.0+):
