I wrote an android app in 40 days,from learning Java Programming Language basics and Android App Development.
This app is an internet content reader by voice through text to speech engine, which should be installed on the user's device.
This app provides you the possibility to listen to continuous live news or interesting articles online when your eyes are busy with other things.I wrote it for myself, because I was enjoying working on my computer listening to financial (stock market) news (bad habit).
Features:
Customizable article sources: you can add your own article source if you have some HTML knowledge.
Customizable Channel: your can create your own channel, adding your favorite sources to your channel.
This app reads articles continuously, without waiting for your order to specify which to read.
Random Voice: if you have more than 1 voice installed on your device, this app will read the article by random voice, which makes you feel not too boring listening to only one voice, like a radio!
*Random voice now supports only Google Text To Speech Engine and Samsung Text To Speech Engine.
Available sources (more will be added):
English: Yahoo News, Yahoo Finance, Yahoo Finance News, Lifehacker, Avclub,
Deadspin,Gizmodo,Jalopnik,Jezebel,Kotaku,TheRoot,TheTakeout,TheOnion,
The inventory, Techcrunch, Engadget
Russian: Tass, Ria Novosti,lenta.ru
Chinese: East Fortune(Financial)
Or you can create your own source.
Note: This app is the developer’s hobby work, satisfaction is not guaranteed, but your blame or feedback is welcome.
The App is now published in Google Play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zhangshifeng.voicereaderlive&hl=en_US&gl=US
