Hi,
I wanted to add a feature to speech the text of the selected message because someone i know can't read correctly messages and the accessibility builtin the phone isn't good enough and hearing messages is easier. I have added a button in the options menu which is only available when selecting one message, it's using the default language of the phone for the speech language. This feature is basic and this can be improved and this feature isn't working on phones with android 11+ because i have not added a line in the android manifest (see Android SDK TTS page). I'm looking forward to hopefully add my feature in the main app and correct mistakes i have made (if any),

Sure @octoshrimpy!
I'll put that on my todo list and I'll create a PR on your fork.
This is something I wanted to see, since I don't have time and enough expertise to update and maintain an Android app.
I'm glad that someone is now doing this.

Hey @octoshrimpy thank you for resurrecting QKSMS. It is a great app and deserves to leave. :) @to268 in the spirit of staying Open Sound I would reccomend using RHVoice not Android SDK. https://github.com/RHVoice/RHVoice
