Description

From the listing uploaded by “split-store”.

SMS Reader is very simple and helpful lightweight app, which allows Your phone to read incoming SMS messages for You, by voice. When SMS Reader is working, every incoming message will be read aloud by instaled voice speaker. You can customize speaker preferences by changing speaker pitch, speed rate and volume. SMS Reader is multilingual and supports many voices. If expected voice is not installed, then application will inform You about that. Before start You can test speaker, and set prefered voice options to make it best for You. Application allows to simple convert text to speech, which can bring You also fun. This app is really helpful when Your hands are busy, especially while driving a car or doing something, because all incoming SMS messages will be read aloud without Your hands !

SMS Reader APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the SMS Reader APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 2757fdec40734daab6bb082d8f42ccfd.
