SPEAKTHAT!

The world’s most comprehensive notification reader.

Stay connected without staring at your screen. SpeakThat! will read your notifications to you as soon as they come in, allowing you to stay up to date while you’re driving, working, cooking, or just trying to avoid using your phone too much.

Open-Source

With the source code available on GitHub, you can verify SpeakThat!’s privacy claims and contribute towards it.

100% Free

SpeakThat! is free for everyone. And when I say free - I mean free. No subscriptions, no ads, just speech.

Privacy-First

All processing happens on your device. No external servers, no data harvesting, and no AI.

App Filtering

Decide exactly which notifications get read out and which will always remain silent.

Voice Options

Full control over pitch, speed, TTS language and audio stream for maximum flexibility.

Shake to Stop

Cancel a readout by shaking your device. The sensitivity can be adjusted to suit your needs.

Wave to Stop

Cover your device’s proximity sensor to cancel ongoing readouts. This is perfect for desk environments.

Notifications

Optionally display a persistent notification indicating when SpeakThat! is active.

Word Filter

Blacklist certain words to prevent notifications containing them from being read out, or swap words entirely.

App Name Swap

If an app name sounds unnatural in speech, swap it with a replacement for readouts.

Smart Logic

Conditional Rules allow you even finer control, such as specific behaviour when Bluetooth is connected.

Language Support

Okay fine, this one’s not really a feature but it’s still amusing that Apple can’t do this yet. They must hate accessibility.

Android Only

Okay fine, this one’s not really a feature but it’s still amusing that Apple can’t do this yet. They must hate accessibility.
