  • Ask HN: On-Device Text to Speech
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 31 Aug 2023
    Hey HN, has anyone found a viable solution for doing this locally and offline on iOS? I'd like to offer a privacy-friendly text to speech feature to my App, and Apple's speech synthesis sounds awful compared to some newer models and TTS engines. The only thing I've found is an older TensorflowTTS example here: https://github.com/TensorSpeech/TensorFlowTTS/tree/master/examples/ios

    Any pointers or tips appreciated.

    I had a lot of success using [FastSpeech2 + MB MelGAN via TensorFlowTTS](https://github.com/TensorSpeech/TensorFlowTTS). There are demos for [iOS](https://github.com/TensorSpeech/TensorFlowTTS/tree/master/ex...) and [Android](https://github.com/TensorSpeech/TensorFlowTTS/tree/master/ex...) which will allow you to run pretty convincing, modern TTS models with only a few hundred milliseconds of processing latency.

    I need an example of how I would go about it. I've combed through examples but it's just not clicking for me.
  • A Working TTS feature has been found (No Google Services Required)
    1 project | /r/fossdroid | 11 Oct 2021
    https://github.com/TensorSpeech/TensorFlowTTS was the project. It was pretty much a direct compile and run. I went through and added the required features to enable it as TTS service for Android. I also moved the Tensorflow portion into a separate thread from the TTS service directly, since Android restricts it's TTS service to a single thread, and the Tensorflow service uses five threads to run at a good speed. It's a much much heavier solution than a C/C++ compiled library, but it works out of the box and I will worry about optimizations later

    You need to try, it implements most advanced algorithms and not as ad-hoc as nvidia https://github.com/TensorSpeech/TensorFlowTTS
