Text to speech and speech to text functionality

Hi All
My first post here.

I wonder if AppSheet enables the following - and how:

  1. Text to speech - I would want the app to speak to the user.
  2. Speech to text - naturally, board does have this functionality, but I am looking for this to be done as part of the app. Ideally, the wait would not expire after a momentary silence of the user, ie. dictation with no rush at all.
  3. The prototype of my app was done in HTML+Javascript for some text transformation and word database (language training app). I wonder how this could be done with the use of AppSheet. Happy to replace JS code with something else if necessary but there will be some if-then conditions.
    Thanks a lot

Iโ€™m afraid we donโ€™t have these functionalities directly in the app. @Kirk_Masden has done some language training apps.

Thanks @Aleksi! But I donโ€™t know how to handle @TOTALโ€™s issue. @TOTAL, I think AppSheet is still rather far away from the kind of functionality you are referring to. The last time I checked, even native playing of and recording of mp3s was not possible. Itโ€™s is possible to link to an mp3 in the cloud but that forces the app to leave the normal interface and use the browser to play it.

@Kirk_Masden I was just thinking your translator app if it would help @TOTAL somehow.

Thanks. Unfortunately, my app isnโ€™t a translator โ€“ itโ€™s for memorizing vocabulary. Several parts of it are bilingual but I did that all by hand โ€“ no automatic translation.

I have made an appsheet which translates from one language to another and I am looking for this feature to read out the result for practice purposes like a flash card. Flash cards in online training are limited in that they supply a canned course, near native speakers learning more than one language would like to compare and hear the result. Surely this can be imbedded in sheets and viewed in Appsheet.
