About Voice Notify APK

Description

Voice Notify announces status bar notification messages using Text-To-Speech (TTS) so you don't need to look at the screen to know what a notification says.


FEATURES:
• Widget and quick settings tile to suspend Voice Notify
• Customizable TTS message
• Replace text to be spoken
• Ignore or enable for individual apps
• Ignore or require notifications containing specified text
• Choice of TTS audio stream
• Choice of speaking when screen or headset is on or off, or while in silent/vibrate mode
• Quiet Time
• Shake-to-silence
• Limit length of spoken message
• Repeat notifications at custom interval while screen off
• Custom delay of TTS after notification
• Most settings can be overridden per-app
• Notification log
• Post a test notification
• Backup and restore settings as zip file
• Light and dark themes (follows system theme)


GETTING STARTED:
Voice Notify operates through Android's Notification Listener service and must be enabled in the Notification Access settings.
A shortcut to that screen is provided at the top of the main Voice Notify screen.

Some device brands, such as Xiaomi and Samsung among several others, have an additional permission that by default prevents apps like Voice Notify from auto-starting or running in the background.
When Voice Notify is opened on a known affected device and the service isn't running, a dialog will appear with instructions and in some cases can open directly into the relevant settings screen.


PERMISSIONS:
• Post Notifications - Required to post the test notification. This is typically the only permission that Android shows to the user.
• Query All Packages - Required to fetch a list of all installed apps for the App List and allow for per-app settings
• Bluetooth - Required to detect whether Bluetooth headset is connected
• Vibrate - Required for Test feature while device is in vibrate mode
• Modify Audio Settings - Required for improved wired headset detection
• Read Phone State - Required to interrupt TTS if a phone call becomes active [Android 11 and below]


ABOUT AUDIO STREAM OPTION:
Behavior of audio streams may vary by device or Android version, so I advise doing your own testing to determine which stream is right for you. The Media stream (default) should be good for most people.


DISCLAIMER:
Voice Notify developers are not responsible for the notifications that are announced. Options are provided to help prevent unwanted announcing of notifications. Use at your own risk!

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
