Speech is an essential part of communication. As the usage of smartphones increases, we visit many pages on the internet and meet new people who use different languages.
The need for text to speech started a decade ago when the internet came into existence for the first time.
TTS apps (Text-To-Speech) work both ways; you can use these apps just by selecting the input language and selecting the output language.
When you enter a text, the app converts it into the language you have selected, or when you want to text, you can easily copy it from the app.
