Published Speak It! App, a Text-To-Speech and OCR scanner app for Android

Writing software, creating applications, generating some major projects with good image processing, machine learning stuff... Has never been any problem to me. But, when it comes to publishing a software in production, I have always been shy, afraid (of reviews like, "what the heck is this?") and underwater for various reasons.

Anyways, I have recently started to push apps in production as well, I started at Windows Store and now Android's Play Store as well. Recently, a text-to-speech application is being pushed out, and since this is the first version there would be several bugs or missing-features, please bear with me. Nonetheless, the application currently does feature a few services that would be useful as of now,

  1. Android text-to-speech service, that lets you convert your text to speech. I implemented the service in a simple manner, that let me stream the content right away! 
  2. OCR scanner to scan your images, application at the moment also supports camera activity. 
  3. Speech storage to files. Android TTS generates the speech, which then gets stored to the files that you can later on listen to. 
  4. I am currently working on quite a few other features, such as voice profiles, that would be implemented soon as well as ebook readers. 
Also, there would be an update to the Windows Store alternate of this app, I am also willing to update the UI of the application as well as the services that are currently being supported in the application.

You can try it out from Google Play Store! Let me know what you think...

These are merely the questions, it goes down in the stack to understand more about different aspects of the IDE, such as, Productivity Performance Extensions and Add-ons Ease of use Learning scope And much more. All these key points are focused toward the development of a software engineer, as he gets to understand how to develop a vital piece of software. For the time being, I have just started out with Python development. Before you start asking me, why I did that:  Python is amazing. Python is being used for many machine learning libraries. Python is portable (just like .NET Core, which is my first love) Scripting is sometimes fun with Python (as compared to bash, command prompt or PowerShell) Open Source software love Python (Blender, GIMP, TensorFlow, etc. etc. etc.).  Lon...
