RE: [AI] Emojis and Google TTS
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, Zujar… -Original Message- From: Zujar Kanchwala Sent: Saturday, September 12, 2020 11:04 AM To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in 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.

[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.

I encountered this issue when I was trying to scrole through the groups and contacts quickly. However, talkback resumes itself after waiting for sometime. I had to face another strange problem when I tried to share a selected content. After tapping on the share, swiping left to right moves only between two or three items in the share menu. I am facing this problem only on samsung M31S and not on Moto G4+.
