Best text to speech ebook reader - hands free
I listen to ebooks with text to speech while driving. I'm using google books at the moment but am frustrated with the controls. Can anyone recommend a good ebook reader with text to speech? I need an app that has hands free controls ie pause, play, rewind 30secs etc

Are you talking about an app or an eReader? It is a huge waste to get an eReader just to listen to audiobooks. I use a phone.

What level of support for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto does your car support?

I’ve never seen TTS enabled reading app that supports media playback controls (play/pause), and you really need that if you are trying to drive a car.
If you are invested in Kindle, then there’s the Alexa app, which will read books and let you control with voice, etc. And there are Echo things you can connect via Bluetooth I think. |
