Text to Speech

Use your browser’s Speech Synthesis engine with system voices. Filter by Indian languages (Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, and more), pick a voice, then tune rate, pitch, and volume. Pause, resume, or stop playback. Audio stays on your device — DroidXP does not receive your text for TTS.

Idle

Narrow voices to Indian locales or a specific script. Voices are installed in your OS — DroidXP cannot download new ones.

Google voices (e.g. Google हिन्दी, Google ಕನ್ನಡ, Google தமிழ்) appear when Chrome/your OS exposes them — the page cannot install them, but it lists them first and groups them under “Google (Indic-friendly)” when both Google and other engines exist. Pick the Google line for that language when you see it; it usually matches Hindi/Kannada/Tamil/etc. text best. If a language is missing, add it in Windows Settings → Language and speech features, then reload the page.

Saving as an audio file: Chrome and other browsers do not expose the Speech Synthesis output as a downloadable file — there is no web API to capture that audio. This page only plays speech on your device. To keep a recording, use your OS or a separate app (for example Windows Xbox Game Bar, macOS QuickTime, or Audacity with “stereo mix” / loopback) while you click Speak. A future server-based TTS option could offer direct downloads but is not part of this tool today.

What this text to speech tool does

It uses the browser’s Speech Synthesis interface (speechSynthesis and SpeechSynthesisUtterance) to play audio from plain text. Voices, quality, and language packs are provided by the operating system — not by DroidXP servers — so results match what you would get from other local TTS features on the same machine.

Voices and the empty list

Chromium and WebKit often populate the voice list after startup. This page listens for voiceschanged and retries on a timer so options appear once the engine is ready. If you still see only “System default,” reload the tab or check OS speech / accessibility settings.

Indian languages

The Language / region menu lists major Indian languages (e.g. Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, Telugu, Marathi, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Punjabi, Odia, Urdu, and others). It filters which OS voices appear and sets a BCP‑47 lang hint on each utterance. DroidXP does not download voices — install language packs or speech voices in Windows, macOS, iOS, or Android settings if yours are missing.

Pause, resume, and browser differences

Speak queues an utterance; Stop cancels the queue. Pause and resume are part of the spec but not consistently implemented — if they do nothing, use Stop and Speak again.

Privacy

Your text is not uploaded for speech. Optional localStorage keys include droidxp-tts-text, droidxp-tts-voice, droidxp-tts-lang-filter, and slider values. Clear removes the stored text only (other controls may remain until changed).

How to use this tool

  1. Step 1: Paste content or use Sample (EN) / हि / ಕನ್ನಡ / தமிழ்; set Language / region to narrow voices, then pick a voice.
  2. Step 2: Tune rate, pitch, and volume — start near defaults if pronunciation sounds off.
  3. Step 3: Click Speak to listen; use Stop to cancel. Avoid sensitive content in shared spaces — audio is audible in the room. Saving speech as a file requires an external recorder; see the note above.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does DroidXP upload my text or record audio?

No. Playback uses local synthesis; your text is not sent to DroidXP for TTS.

How do I save the speech as an audio file?

The Web Speech API does not give websites access to the synthesized audio stream, so DroidXP cannot offer a “download MP3” button for the same voice you hear from Speak. To record it, use a system or desktop audio capture tool while playing speech on this page, or use a cloud TTS service that returns audio files (not built into this tool).

Why is the voice list empty at first?

Many browsers load voices asynchronously. Wait briefly, or reload — the tool listens for voiceschanged and retries automatically.

Do pause and resume work everywhere?

Support varies. Speak and Stop are the most portable; on some mobile browsers pause may not work — stop and start again.

Why is there no sound?

Check OS and tab volume, the in-page Volume slider, and that you clicked Speak after the page loaded (some browsers require a user gesture).

Is this the same as Google Cloud Text-to-Speech?

No cloud API — only built-in system voices. No API keys; quality depends on your OS.

How do Indian languages work? Why is my language missing?

DroidXP cannot install voices — your operating system does. Use the language filter and install speech or language packs in system settings. The tool filters available voices and sets utterance.lang for the language you pick.

Where are my settings stored?

Keys are prefixed with droidxp-tts- for text, voice, language filter, rate, pitch, and volume. Clear removes stored text.

Can I use this offline?

Often yes after the page is cached; first visit needs network assets. Voices are still local.

Will emoji or Indic scripts work?

Engines may skip emoji. For Devanagari, Tamil, Telugu, and other scripts, pick a matching installed voice and language filter — output still depends on the OS engine.

Is this OK for regulated or confidential content?

Audio can be overheard; follow your org’s policy for sensitive material and shared workspaces.
