Is there a Foss TTS ( it's ok if it relies on local Ai ), I'm using RHvoice but it's really robotic ... It's painful.. ๐Ÿ˜…

Is there's something that could compete with Google TTS which is preinstalled on stock Android ?

I recommend Sherpa Onnx's TTS Engine app, using a piper voice model. I recommend Lessac Medium or Low.

THANK YOU ๐Ÿค, I can't upvote this enough.. It's awesome and sounds human.. now I can git rid of my Googled phone.. ๐Ÿฅณ

Edit: after a test run, it doesn't seem to have a way to change the language, and installing a different apk with different language removes the old one.. ๐Ÿ˜”
