No problem for me on Android 12 (Companion).

... and also not on Android 9, 10, 11.

Install my native TTS engine eBralec KSS from Google Play on 12 and try.

Why, what should that change?0

Because I am not American, but Slovene!

Does it not work to you.

Andrej_Soba · April 4, 2022, 5:39pm

No. It works only when Google TTS engine is set, but not for my language.

I have already tested 4 TTS mechanisms for the Slovenian language. Apparently App Inventor is having trouble accessing the TTS mechanism (speech API) in android 12.
