One of it's high points is the number of languages supported.
The app's a free download that will let you sample their many voices. I don't have one single pick, so I'll list the best ones with their main characteristics.

Luckily, there are a few professional TTS engines available for Android. You should be able to understand what comes out of them, but they won't fool you into thinking that it's a person speaking. Those are basic engines meant to provide minimum functionality out of the box. Your phone came with Pico TTS and/or Google TTS.

It's used by navigation software to guide you on your way, by reader application to read your news while you're jogging or driving, and now by personal assistants that understand what you say and reply to your questions and commands. It's the engine that converts written words and phrases to (hopefully) intelligible sounds. Spoken instructions in google maps are just one example. You probably know that your phone can speak. So for me it's a pretty decent GPS app what does it right, in the language you want it to. And it uses all users's position and speed to figure out traffic, tells you about accidents, speed traps and other problems. So you get live updates from other Waze users and you can chat with fellow Waze users close by.
Of course it's also a social network thing. While google sent me through the congested main roads, waze got me back to my daily favorite back roads, saving me considerable time. Then, what got me to write this, it saved me over 30 min on my way home today. And that's already a major point whether you live in Europe or Quebec. Not that I love the idea of social networks, but the app's got some strong points going for it.įirst, you can choose the language of the navigation prompts. It's a social network meet maps and navigation. I decided to ask my alternative advisors their opinions.Īctually, I only asked my favorite one, Waze. And today, I was stuck deep in rush hour traffic. I tried other navigation apps to see what they had to offer. I use it often, love google maps and it's routes and navigation features. Much better to just sort it your way, and adjust it as your priorities change.ĭon't get me wrong, I love google navigation. While automagic sorting based on priority, deadline and other factors might seem interesting, it's never quite right.

I just love transparent stuff on my desktops :)Īnother thing that shines by it's simplicity is it's manual sorting. And it offers two themes, white and black, the black one having a transparent background. It also offers a great widget that's got a clean look and that not only let you see your tasks, but mark them completed without having to open the app. Tasks sync with google tasks and let you manage multiple accounts with multiple tasks lists. My pick's something I discovered during the last apps sale, named simply Tasks. And if a widget's an eye sore, there's no way I'll keep it on my main desktops. If I have to remember to open an app to know what I have to do, my tasks will remain undone. The first one I stuck with was Astrid, because of it's widget. There's many good TODO apps, with all kinds of UIs and features. TODO apps were amongst the first things I installed on my android.
