# Install additional voices
New voices, languages, dialects can be downloaded for FREE for your operating system from for example Microsoft and Apple. Once installed correctly, Talkie will auto-detect them.
☑ Windows 10: Settings > Time & Language > Language
☑ macOS: System Preferences > Accessibility > Speech > System voice > Customize...
☑ ChromeOS: Settings > Manage accessibility features > Text-to-Speech voice settings > Speech Engines
# Usage
1. Select desired text on any web page.
2. Click the Talkie button in your browser bar
You can also select the text, then right click on it, and choose Talkie in the menu. This way also works in PDF-files and some special types of pages in Chrome.
https://joelpurra.com/projects/talkie/#usage
# Shortcut keys
A convenient option is to use the Talkie shortcut keys:
☑ ⌘+Shift+A on macOS
☑ Ctrl+Shift+A on Windows, Linux, Chrome OS
☑ ⌘+Shift+1 or Ctrl+Shift+1 to read text from the clipboard in any program (Talkie Premium feature)
If the key does not work, please check that it is not already in use by another extension. How to check or change the Talkie shortcut key:

# Features
☑ Lets you listen to the selected text on any part of a page -- a short snippet or an entire news article. Just highlight what you want to hear read aloud and hit play.
☑ Automatically detects the text language per-page, and chooses a voice in the same language to match it.
☑ Privacy aware -- no unnecessary tracking or external services.
# Voices
☑ Uses your browser's built-in Web Speech API for text-to-speech (TTS) known as Speech Synthesis.
☑ All text and speech is processed internally by your browser. While ultimately depending on your specific browser, all processing is expected to be done on your own machine and not use a server.
☑ The available voices may differ depending on your operating system, browser, browser version, and any other installed extensions/software.
☑ Custom voices using Speech Application Programming Interface (SAPI) should work, but not all have been tested.

☑ Adjust the speed and pitch per language!
☑ Read text from the clipboard in any program!

- (2025-03-10) Julia Diachenko: terrible you have to select text and it doesn't select well or scroll to allow selection of more than one scroll window. the worst of all extensions
- (2024-10-27) Vangelis: Works well in Greek but I would like to have some available choices for voice selection.
- (2024-10-27) Delta: I tried like everything I could think of to change the voice but it just doesn't work...
- (2024-01-30) Nnenna OKOROAFOR: Good app but does not work for Google docs at all. which is what i needed it for.
- (2023-12-08) LK: My issue resolved itself and I can see all the installed languages now. Just one thing: I hope you consider adding an option to speed up the reading. I usually read very quickly so having to listen to slow reading is a bummer. Otherwise, thanks for this app. It helps a lot.
- (2023-11-13) Marcin Pietrzak: Amazing Chrome Extension! I'm trying to find the best addon for reading a page or the selected element of that page and I can tell, it's the fastest plugin of my old chromebook. Because the most popular addons for this, working so slow. I need something to play TTS, when I click a shortcut and get instantly reaction and this is working well. Good job mate!

- (2023-05-10) YVO: Countering the other proprietors designing similar highly signature apps only complicating the app's practical value, Talkie text-to-speech is valuable right from the moment I am grateful having installed.... As a person challenged with spinal cord injury this utility /app is a life saver. However anyone who likes to dignify what they write by listening to how clear or edit worthy what we've written is before sending and or commenting in the written word. Thank You Talkie YVO

Writing this review was the only way I could find to report this problem.

- (2022-08-16) Trone: I love this, except for the tedious error message: "Talkie cannot read this kind of page. It is a very sp..." This is open source, so if you'd like to change that, just replace that text in the file at C:\Users\ [your PC user name] \AppData\Local\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\User Data\Default\Extensions\enfbcfmmdpdminapkflljhbfeejjhjjk\7.0.0_0\_locales\en\messages.json I replaced it with "BONK". If you don't see enfbcfmm.... in your Extensions folder, right-click on the Talkie icon > Manage extension to see what's in the "ID" section. Find the folder with that name in your Extensions folder instead.

- (2022-05-21) Marciano Santos: Só funcionou com a voz masculina da Microsoft e não permite aumentar a velocidade de reprodução.
- (2022-04-12) Tina Petersen: Fabulous. Easy to use. Perhaps make the install process easier for younger users.

- (2022-03-01) Jean Ducrot: The clever functionality of right clicking on selected text to trigger the announcement is worth its weight in gold. It gets around iframe limitations. If this extension would highlight text as it announced it I would give it 5 stars.

- (2021-10-03) Renato Silva: Voll Müll! habe mehr als 1000.-chF gespendet! trotzdem kein Premium. - wers nicht glaubt, habe alles auf Fotos dokumentiert! Saukram! Muss weiterhin die Frauenstimme hören, die mir mächtig auf die Eier drückt! vorher bei Windoofs 30min Sprachpakete heruntergeladen, für nichts! Aber kompliziert wie nur etwas! Ich frage mich weshalb dass immer so schwierig sein muss mit der Vorleserei !? vor 10 Jahren könnte ich es verstehen, für jede stimme musste man extra bezahlen! so kindisch! es wird höchste Zeit, dass Windoofs begreift, dass wir mit dem PCs reden, sprechen wollen! Und nicht mit dauerlesen unsere Augen verschleissen!!! warum sind wir da technisch mässig, immer noch hinter dem Mond? Cordona, oder wie die hisst da, versteht mit bestem Mikrophon genau O. Google Sprachasistend, scheint mir noch blöder zu sein! Jeder Mensch hat doch ein unverwechselbares Stimmmuster oder nicht? weshalb ist Windoofs noch nicht so weit, dass es unsere Stimme präzise zuordnen kann und darauf reagieren, wie von Mensch zu Mensch! kann doch nicht so schwer sein! oder? Stattdessen müssen wir wie die Blöden, jedes mal: " ok - Google", bei jedem Satz oder : "hey Google " , sagen! dass ist doch Käse hoch 3 Leute!!!!!! und neuerdings lässt Google den bestätigungston ausfallen, nun weiss man erst recht nicht, hat das blöde Ding mich verstanden, gehört, oder tut es mich blos Ausspionieren! ich finde den Stand um das Thema nicht zeitgemäss hinterwäldlerisch und total steinzeitsintfluhtlich,- was auch immer!!! Es nervt! Macht Vorwitz Leute!!!! hat jemand die Windoofs integrierte vorlese Hilfe ausprobiert? Das Teil ist nur geeignet, zum meiner einer in den Wahnsinn zu treiben!!! Die Hölle das Teil!!! "akzeptiere dieses Häkchen, damit Microsoft sich verbessern kann, sagt uns Verbesserungsvorschläge, bitte bitte," - hab ich schon vor 10 Jahren an Windwoofs gemeldet! Machen tun die nichts, ausser uns ausspionieren!!!!!!

- (2021-05-26) Forstmann 67: Die Kostenlose Version finde ich ganz gut, Stimmen kann man wechseln. Was ich aber Richtig gut finden würde, wäre wenn Talkie auch Übersetzend Vorlesen könnte, das würde ich Feiern. Ansonsten alles gut, Premium kam ich nicht Beurteilen, da kein Geld.
