The eSpeak for Android program is a port of the eSpeak Text-to-Speech synthesiser to Android, supporting 79 languages and accents.

This port of eSpeak is built on the eyes-free version. It fixes multiple issues found in the eyes-free version:

Fixes crashes on Android 4.3;
Speech rate and pitch are correctly handled, so eSpeak on Android sounds like it does on the desktop;
Speech rate is set as words per minute;
Pitch, base pitch and volume are configurable as percentages;
The eSpeak variant can be selected, including the NVDA voice variants;
Punctuation level and punctuation characters are configurable;
Languages are correctly selected (e.g. selecting Slovak and Slovenian, or selecting Cantonese Chinese);
Language names are correctly displayed (e.g. “Scottish English” is displayed as “English (United Kingdom, Scottish Standard English)”);
Accent and special characters are supported;
MIPS-based devices are supported;
Various memory leaks and crashes are fixed;
SSML is only processed if the SSML markup is wrapped in a <speak> tag;
Support for importing custom-built eSpeak dictionaries.

Pronunciation errors should be reported to the espeak-general@lists.sourceforge.net mailing list.
