Is there a Foss TTS ( it’s ok if it relies on local Ai ), I’m using RHvoice but it’s really robotic … It’s painful… 😅

Is there’s something that could compete with Google TTS which is preinstalled on stock Android ?

I recommend Sherpa Onnx’s TTS Engine app, using a piper voice model. I recommend Lessac Medium or Low.

THANK YOU 🤍, I can’t upvote this enough… It’s awesome and sounds human… now I can git rid of my Googled phone… 🥳

Edit: after a test run, it doesn’t seem to have a way to change the language, and installing a different apk with different language removes the old one… 😔
