Honestly, I used to blame Apple for not allowing companies to develop apps for third-party synthesizers. But after Apple allowed this thing I no longer blame it. I haven't seen any company do something like this
Basically, in iOS 16, Apple introduced Eloquence to their ecosystem With it, they created a module which allowed for other speech synths to be used. for example the Ivona voices. Unfortunately, at least that I know of, no (commercially available) synths are being prepped for introduction right now.
The only synth that I know of that is being worked on is eSpeak, though I unfortunately don't have the testflight link.
here is a link to the decTalk archive. DecTalk archive is a big bunch of files and folders, sound files mp3 files that you can listen to on your computer in order to hear many more capabilities of decTalk.
Now that it is 2023, it would be interesting to import voices from other platforms such as Microsoft or some voices in voice dream to IOS. I'm sure there's technicalities involved but I would like to see some voice dream voices come to IOS. Shouldn't be that difficult...
I think it's similar to eloquence. By the way eloquence is available in IOS16 version. But I'm a fan of the Acapala synthesizer. I want to use it on IOS
yes eloquence is in IOS16, but decTalk would be faster like ESpeak because, decTalk, espeak, and Berkeley speech technologies bestSpeech tts made by Michael O'Malley in the 1980s are designed to run on risc (reduced instruction set) operating systems. That means they are meant to run in only 500kb to 1mb of ram. Eloquence's dictionary and letter to sound rules database is huge compared to the very small size of bestSpeech tts, decTalk and espeak. I alrready contacted some developers about porting decTalk to IOS. So we'll see what happens. We have all the decTalk source code someone just has to port it.
Dectalk would be awesome for iOS. I'm sure someone would be able to port all of the voices.. eSpeak has already been ported, the same would apply to dectalk

What?
I have absolutely no idea what you are referring to
i'm sorry
I'm sorry. But I can't speak English fluently. That's why I used a translation app😊
For Dizno

E-speak
I think E-speak is available on the apple app store now.

This is correct. But there…
This is correct. But there is no other synthesizer other than the eSpeak. Like Acapela, for example, or Ivona voices.
decTalk for IOS
I would like to see decTalk for IOS. Its source code is at github.com/dectalk
Is this a synthesizer?…
Is this a synthesizer? Honestly, I've never heard of her before
decTalk synthesizer
yes, decTalk is a synthesizer. One of the most amazing for its time.
decTalk sound file
here is a link to a small sample sound file to show you what the decTalk synthesizer sounds like.

I would like to see
I would like to see we can have microsoft voices. or cloud AI voices.
and also neo speech Julie, Paul and Kate also sound very good
True. Microsoft voices great…
True. Microsoft voices great. For me, in the English voice, I prefer Sharon's Acapella voice.

I already have a developer account. If I had a Mac I would have already moved it
