RE: Listen to Posts with the New TEXT TO SPEECH Feature

in About PeakDlast year (edited)

It was a great addition I must say, I loved it after updating my PeakD and listening to it as it clearly read my post. It was really perfect with words.

PS: If there is any future possibility of adjusting the speed of the read (making it optional and flexible), that will also be great. Just thinking.

I also noticed that it is unable to separate headings from its first paragraph, it reads headings together with the words under it, non-stop. It means without a full stop to the heading, it will not be able to separate them.

I think those are my main observations.

Nevertheless, it is indeed impressive.
Kudos @peakd

Valid points. I consider this a first iteration of the feature and would like to improve it over time.

adjusting the speed

This is definitely possible, I just have to figure out a way to make it usable on the user interface.

separate headings from its first paragraph

Have to think about it and figure out how to improve. Thanks for reporting

Great, so I also observed that,

Reacting to this

Text to speech will stop when user navigates to a different page.

while using mobile phone, the reading doesn't stop permanently, it pauses and then continue despite not being active on the page. It only stops abruptly when you are using a PC. So maybe it's not applicable to mobile phones.
