SMS Reader

Читает существующих и входящие текстовые сообщения, используя громкоговорители или устройства BT.

This is an application that reads text messages (SMS) out loud (and from some 3rd-party messaging apps)

You can activate reading of incoming messages and also read recent messages manually.

Optionally, you can let the application display an incoming SMS in a popup before choosing between reading or dismissing that message, without having to unlock your device.

You can even stop the reading by shaking the device.

It can be used for example while under the shower, while biking or running, even while driving to read your messages without reaching for your phone, which is safer (do not forget to stop the vehicle before answering).

Moreover, it can be useful for people with low-sight, blind and old people.

The service that reads incoming messages is compatible with applications such as Llama which allows activation or deactivation triggered by various events. Check help for more details.
