Hi. Unless some news has come out that I've missed I can tell you that
Voice Dream Reader, at least the iOS version, is actively being
developed. In fact, a new update for the iOS version was just released
on April 23. Mary, if you were referring to something other than VDR I
apologize if I've misinterpreted your message.

If voice dream on Kindle is the same as the android version, which I assume it
is, it is not as good as the iOS version. I did buy the android version. I
believe development has ceased, so you might take that into account when
deciding whether you want to buy it or not.

And for those who have the latest Fire tablet, I would highly recommend you buy
the voice dream reader app from the Kindle app store.

Subject: [vi-kindle] Re: Voices for fire tablet
The voice I would like would be the Kendra voice. I have it on a PC and also on
my android device and on my iPhone with voice dream reader. I had an old Kindle
fire, but it couldn't be updated to the latest version of voiceview. It has the
old screen reader. And you couldn't get any voices for it except for what came
on the device. I heard that with the new ones, there were other voices
available in the Amazon Kindle store or whatever they call that Store that
isn't Google play store. Since Amazon owns ivona, maker of all those voices, it
would be nice to see all of them in the Kindle play store or App Store. That's
why I was wondering what was there.

I think that the Kindle fire tablet come with Joey and Sally voices installed.
Is that correct? If so, which other voices are available from the Kindle store?
