Description
Did you know that, this Halloween, your mobile will turn to its … dark side?Have your personal cursed buddy, Dark Lord, read aloud texts from your e-book, navigation, translation and other apps in a US English… malefic voice powered by SVOX.
When combined with tts-enabled apps, Dark Lord can…
- scare your friends by calling their names aloud
- give directions allowing you to keep your eyes on the road while you're driving
- notify you about the caller/sender's name or read the content when you receive an incoming call / sms / email
- read aloud your favorite e-books or pdf documents
and much more… the possibilities are limitless!

Simply ridiculous. I downloaded this voice, which told me to install another app, and it still hadn't downloaded the voice data?! On top of that it errors out if you try to download the data. You are either stupid crooks or awful developers. -note from a fellow developer

Good stuff I like this voice cause it's different and is understandable even on the very fast setting... Nice option to correct pronounciation with SVOX voices
