Smart Announcer: Call & Battery APK for Android

Customizable text-to-speech app

Smart Announcer: Call & Battery is a free utility app developed by Ingris Pvt. Ltd. It's a text-to-speech tool used to verbally notify users of incoming alerts and notifications from various applications. Users can still be notified of important calls or texts without touching anything. 

Similar in concept to Google Text-to-Speech, Smart Announcer: Call & Battery can be in specific scenarios when directly interacting with devices is not possible or safe. It can supplement hand-free usage of certain functions like reading SMS or checking for missed calls. Users can also set schedules during specific times of the day.

Announce out loud

The concept of text-to-speech technology has been around for a while now, but its practical application in daily tasks has still been quite limited. It hasn't really been utilized much outside some simple dictation duties for messages or reading books out loud to you. In comes Smart Announcer: Call & Battery, an app that is attempting to put this humble feature to more use.

As its name suggests, this app uses text-to-speech technology to make practical and useful verbal advisories for important phone functions. Some of them include voice alerts for missed calls and received texts as they happen. You can then configure Repeat Announcement to be sure you get notified, as well as set up schedules when you want to enable and disable this functionality.

What's more, you can do the same for your battery as you can also enable announcement for battery percentages or even while charging. Set up Phone Profiles for multiple scenarios and switch between them accordingly. One thing to note, however, is that the app has not been updated in some time. Use it as it is, but don't expect new features to come anytime soon.

A different way to get notified

All in all, Smart Announcer: Call & Battery is an interesting and clever use of text-to-speech that extends its functionality to other important system functions. It's easy to set up and the profiles allow you to create different scenarios for work or personal usage. Suffice it to say, this app deserves a look, so try it out and see for yourself.
