General information

Read text messages aloud, in real-time, as they arrive, with the ability to skip messages through voice recognition to remain hands free. Great for reading text messages while driving, cycling or anything else where you need your eyes and hands to be focused on something else.

This simple and easy application allows you to read SMS/MMS messages via your in-car Bluetooth audio system or headset, with the option to select specific Bluetooth devices for use. Reading and responding to the text messages through the in-car Bluetooth audio system with minimal configuration.

The application will automatically run whenever a new SMS message is received. There is no need to have the application open or constantly running. It will read the text message as soon as it arrives, hands-free.

The application will also allow you to send SMS replies via an unlimited list of pre-defined user messages or adhoc custom messages. Personalised responses can be added quickly and easily and are accessed by simple keywords defined by you.

The full feature list is given below, with more features being added each release:

- Hands-free reading of text/SMS messages in real-time using the built in text-to-speech (TTS) technology
- Support for reading the text portion of an MMS and will specify whether or not the message also contains images, video or audio

Instead, if 'yes' is spoken (also configurable through user preferences), auto responses will be used.
