App For Reading Text Aloud Novels & Stories

I opened the app store and typed in “séance.” Stupid. I knew it was stupid. But I didn’t have a dusty old Ouija board or some gothic medium on speed dial. I had my phone. And right now, it was the only thing between me and the silence. I picked one with decent reviews: “SpiritLink: Connect with the Beyond.” It had the kind of silly interface you’d expect, candles, a board, swirling letters. But it said it used “energy-sensitive microphone response.” Whatever. I just wanted a way to call him.

I pull it out expecting the car app rescheduling confirmation. It is not the car app. It is a text from a number I don't recognize. No name. Just eleven words that make the cold from the injection feel warm by comparison. It reads: I saw you go in. I'll be here when you come out.

he replied, making me laugh. I spent a couple of hours trying different apps until I found one that offered the customization options I was looking for. It was meant for people with speech problems and allowed me to add the more frequently used words in bars around the main screen, to save time. When a sentence was complete, tapping the speaker icon made a TTS voice read it aloud. The best feat was that it would generate a bar with the most used nouns by the user, to keep them at hand.

He stood there in silence for a while before turning to leave. Jessica did not listen to him anymore. She sat down in the living room with her handbag and took out her mobile phone. The most eye-catching icon on the screen was the app. It could be directly called and answered to be specially designed for the deaf. It could allow them to communicate with ordinary people through a multifunctional software. It was such an app that made her like and excited, and she even participated in it personally. It had such a utilitarian purpose behind, and she did not know what to say.

That doesn't stop the automatic advertising messages from coming in though and when they do it pops up as an alert at the top of my phone, kind of like a text message. Well, one day I was on my phone and I hadn't been on a4a in quite a while. As I was scrolling through whatever I was on, a a4a alert popped up. I meant to swipe it away, but I unintentionally opened the app. I quickly closed it and went back to what I was looking at before. Well, if you know the app, then you know that just closing the app doesn't immediately change your activity status in the app so it must have still shown me as active.

I pressed my thumb against my home button, and found a message displayed on my screen. A text from an unknown number. I clicked the message, and the app displayed in front of the screen, showing me the full message. "It's done, Mr. Damon. FiveTech is all yours." Mission accomplished.

"All you need to do is swipe up. That unlocks it." "You can open the 'Notes' app here," I continued, tapping the icon. "You just type whatever you want, and press this little speaker icon... right here." I pointed carefully. "It will read your message aloud. If you don't want to use the voice option, you can also just type your message and show it to someone. That works just as well." I look at her as she intently focused on the tab. Her lashes were thick and pale, casting soft shadows over her hollow cheeks. She was really listening.

“I texted you this morning, but you didn’t see it, so I came here personally.” Inaya raised a brow. She picked up her phone and checked her messages. It was there, alright. Received two hours ago. She tapped on the phone and turned it for him to see this. “See this here? This is called the phone app. You call people with it. You don’t have to turn up personally or send messenger pigeons anymore. Tech advances, I tell you - really cool stuff.”

As I ate, Astrid walked me through everything—how to open the camera, how to make calls, how to use G****e, and even how to browse Spotify. “I also added a novel app,” she said proudly. “You can use it to read when you’re bored. You can find any book you’re looking for.” She tapped a few buttons before passing it back to me. “Alpha Kieran already saved his contact. Here’s mine and Tobias’s. Mira, save yours too.” Mira wiped her hands and quickly added her number. “Done. Now, eat up, Luna. You need to refill your energy.” I ate like I hadn’t had food in days, devouring every bite with pure satisfaction. As I finished my third plate, I felt two pairs of eyes burning into me, Astrid and Mira, t

the robotic voice announced. I stopped dead in my tracks, the tension in my shoulders softening just slightly. A smirk tugged at the corner of my mouth. And yeah, don't ask me what the name means. But a text? A fucking text? I exhaled sharply. Did she forget? I couldn’t read texts unless I forced the damn screen reader to talk, and even that was slow and jarring. Why hadn’t she just called? Unless... no. I didn’t like the flicker of worry that ran across my thoughts.
