I am looking for simple block which will stop text to speak from speaking. This is very critical as the app looks stupid and keeps speaking even after we load next blocks.
Can someone help me… how to stop tts component. This is such a basic block function.
The tts also doesn’t have ability to adjust pitch and tempo.
Please help. @ staff
