I find Uk lady bit tinny  but for a while it took me to find my apps on 
phone and tablet I thought I was going mad.
I would have thought they would add new voices but not take some away.
As for new keyboard I just updated it today and not checked it out but I do 
not use the predictive text i find i a pain it keeps changing my words to 
what I want.
And as for that smile button witch I do not use I am for ever pressing it I 
wish I could take that button off the keyboard.
Yes I am not sure Quentin if new things work with talkback.
I googled whats new in google text to speech apart from adding a new 
language their is not much for us.
Cheers Michael.

Hi Michael,

Yes the play store changed at some point over the past week - it seems to 
have slowly migrated across my various devices and as you say it's in 
slightly different positions on the phone and the tablet.

With the speech, I downloaded the update last night and I was surprised to 
see there was no "what's new" section to say what the changes were and that 
they'd completely changed the voice - yes, as you say everyone has this new 
voice.  I actually like it, although it's not really up to me to comment 
since I don't use Talkback all the time!

The other thing they've changed this week is the google keyboard.  They've 
changed the way some of the punctuation works when you hold down say the 
full stop and held down keys don't go blue, and also if you slide across the 
keyboard to enter text, you can now slide over the space bar instead of 
lifting between words.  I'm pretty sure none of the keyboards that let you 
slide or swipe or whatever they want to call it to enter text actually work 
in that mode with Talkback do they?

Regards

Quentin.

  Hi Quentin Wen did the store change to get to my apps I just noticed it 
other day I don’t click on more options to get to my apps.
  Now on my phone I tap navigate up to get to my apps.
  And on my tablet I click on a drawer to get to my apps.
  Plust last night I had an update for google text to speech so I did update 
and now I have a tinny Lady UK voice and no Danual from the UK.

  Cheers Michael.
