Introducing Mobile
Speak 4
What is
the Mobile Speak screen reader
Code Factory’s screen readers consist of
software applications installed on a mobile phone, which allow you to use the
device even if you cannot read the screen visually. Information displayed on
the screen is rendered in synthesized speech output generated using
text-to-speech (TTS) technology and routed through the device’s speaker or a headset.
Screen contents can also be presented in Braille if the mobile phone or PDA is
connected to a Braille device with a refreshable Braille display. Speech and
Braille output can be used at the same time, or independently, to perform many
tasks on the phone, including the following:
- Make and receive
calls.
- Read and write SMS messages.
- Manage your contacts and call lists.
- Review the numbers entered in
the dialer screen, and check the caller ID on incoming
calls.
- Browse the
Internet.
- Send and receive
emails.
- Manage the calendar to schedule
appointments and keep track of them using alarms
and reminders.
- Create text and voice notes.
- Perform calculations.
- Listen to music and podcasts.
- Configure phone settings, profiles and
ringtones, speed dial keys and voice tags.
- Share data between your device and other
mobile phones and computers.
Two Mobile Speak Flavours: Symbian

There are two flavours of

merged into Mobile Speak for Windows Mobile. This means that whatever supported
Windows Mobile device you have, no matter whether it is a Smartphone or Pocket
PC (touch screen devices), the Mobile Speak installation file is the same.
Therefore there are 2 Mobile Speak installation files: Mobile Speak for Symbian (.sis) and Mobile Speak for Windows Mobile (.exe).
