Text-to-Speech (TTS)
Quote "Text-to-speech (TTS) is a very popular assistive technology in which a computer or tablet reads the words on the screen out loud to the user. This technology is popular among students who have difficulties with reading, especially those who struggle with decoding. By presenting the words auditorily, the student can focus on the meaning of words instead of spending all their brain power trying to sound out the words. While this can help students work around their reading difficulties and access the classroom material, this technology does not assist students in developing reading skills.
In recent years there has been a steady increase in the amount of TTS software available on both Android and Apple devices (Csapo, 2015). It has also gained popularity in workplace settings as a tool to help users proofread their work."

I have upload two video here to show how TTS is actually used in one of our ereaders. The device I use is Boyue Likebook MARS. Currently we are offering to a lot of Singaporeans in picking up digital reading.
To go with our current situation in Covid-19 pandemic period. This is a good start. Can't read, Don't like reading, many words I cannot recognize.... blah blah excuses can be solved with TTS.
This month we are going to "give away many Christmas Bundle' to allow our customer to enjoy #TTS with our ereader. Make your eReader read the stories to you while you commute around Asia.
