Nokia Screen Reader Updated to 1.30.2, Add Support for 44 Devices, 20 Languages and Whatsapp Messenger

Nokia Screen Reader is a free screen reader available for people with visual disabilities and also for general users who would like additional voice assistance on their smartphone. The screen reader is an easy-to-use and simple application designed to meet the accessibility needs of Nokia smartphone users.

Nokia Screen Reader is a simplified version of the powerful Mobile Speak screen reader. The application speaks the text content of the currently focused item on the screen, following focus as the user moves around the different applications on the phone. It uses a simple command structure to let users get the important information quickly such as date and time, signal strength, connection status, etc. Information displayed on the screen is spoken via the speaker or headset using the phone’s built-in TTS voices. The application will only install on specific phone models.

Note that some of these languages do not have a corresponding Nokia HQ voice, so it is recommended to use the Nokia standard quality voice for these languages.

You can add additional Nokia HQ voices for free at http://www.nokia.com/global/support/text-to-speech/, or on many devices it can be done via the phone’s Speech application (Screen Reader > Nokia HQ Settings > Options > Download languages). As long as your device has sufficient memory, there is no restriction on the number of Nokia HQ voices you can install. Standard quality Nokia voices come built-in with the phone and will always use the currently active phone language, so they can’t be installed.

Download:
You can download Nokia Screen Reader for free from Nokia Store.
