Hi,

 

I notice a Google TTS update yesterday (updates set to auto-install). However, 
let me repeat that English UK was speaking Emojis even before this update as 
mentioned in one of the trail emails.

 

I too had reported to Google TTS developers but haven’t seen any such response 
as you.

 

I considered it a trouble with English US voice after discovering that Emojis 
were working with English UK and it came out to be a TTS bug. Good that the TTS 
developers identified it and fixed it.

 

Best Regards,

Zujar…

Hi siddalingeshwar, It's Analu from the Google Disability Support team. Thank 
you for reporting the issue regarding Talkback not reading emojis. We 
understand the importance of this feature and your feedback helps us improve 
accessibility to all users. After we shared your feedback with the product 
team, they were able to provide a solution! You should now, after the latest 
Google TTS update,  be able to read emojis again while using Talkback.

Hi friends,

The English US voice has updated today on my device and it is speaking Emojis 
correctly now. You may check for the update in case you wish to read and use 
Emojis.

Best Regards,

Subject: [AI] Emojis and Google TTS

Hi friends,

There was a discussion regarding Google TTS not announcing Emojis which mates 
found to be limiting use of Emojis in chats and other content. Today morning, 
in an attempt to make it work, I found that the English United Kingdom voices 
speak Emojis correctly while the others like English India, English US and 
English Australia do not speak emojis.

So if you wish to make use of emojis then English UK can be selected as the 
Google TTS voice for English. However, the voice doesn't sound as natural as 
English US to me.
