I just found this.

APKs for TTS engines

Main page

This is huge!

As a german, I use thorsten medium as he simply made the best dataset.

Mixing english with german, speaking numbers, single letters, pausing without a "." but just a linebreak, all those can be essential.

And... it is nearly perfect! And all local!

This is crazy!

eSpeak can finally go to rest!

You linked the download apk directly, not the index with all the apk's.

Edited my previous reply for you to see the url better

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No the main link in the post is exactly the same.

You edited it. Lmao why you messing with me.

I added the same link also to the text so that you can find it there too.

Click on either of these links, they are the same

I already found it. Thanks for sharing this. The quality is so damn good. The "high" ones lag a lot but medium works perfectly on my device.

your language
your android architecture (normally modern phones use arm64 or aarch64 or arm v8a
