Force Google-Speech-Engine #100

Open desmeit opened 5 years ago

desmeit commented 5 years ago

The Samsung speech engine is pre-installed on my Samsung Test-Phone. I think this is the case with many users. The Google-Speech-Engine is much better. How can I force the Google-Speech-Engine to be installed automatically or give the user a link?

Yeah, that would be nice :-)

Looking forward to this, otherwise we can't keep the same voice across devices, very critical for usage

I don't think this is possible. AFAIK the Google TTS engine doesn't come pre-installed on all devices, which is why the user would be required to install it before it can be used.

You can force google voice if it is already installed:

new TextToSpeech(cordova.getActivity().getApplication(), this, "com.google.android.tts");
