Hi guys, I just discovered a problem with the Text to Speech function in iOS for the Vietnamese Language. The app works fine on Android. In iOS, instead of reading out the words, it reads each letter of every word. I believe this is something that needs to be fixed in the bot itself. Can you check to see if there’s anything you can do to resolve this for me? Thank you!

Hi,

If you give me the blocks, then I can add this to my bug tracker with the help of which it will be possible to track the correction of this error. I’m afraid that I can’t help anything else.

Hi @hhuman,

This is not really a bug from Thunkable but caused by Apple not having support for voiceover / text-to-speech in Vietnamese:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/2/d/2d828c6ee650f41b3424239336ed5723bdebbd6d.jpeg)

Also in the Apple community somebody recently asked if the could please add it so I am pretty sure it is still not supported by the OS. [Please, add Vietnamese voices to text-to-… - Apple Community](https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250823209)

Best, Chris

For now try using any other AI which supports Vietnamese like the _Wavel_ [AI text to speech](https://wavel.ai/solutions/realistic-text-to-speech-online/) model online  
It has over 250 voices for TTS as well along with voice cloning feature too
