You then need to download the  right  application on your phone  and install the synthesis of your choice. 
You will need to indicate your credit card information to buy the new voice. 

We would advise you to get some help from someone for the next steps.  

For example, to install an Acapela voice, here are the steps to follow: 

0)

 

With a new device, you will need to create a Google account in order to access the PlayStore and 
enter a payment card if needed. 

1)

 

Then, go to the Google Play Store and choose “Acapela TTS Voices” 

2)

 

Launch the Acapela TTS Voices application and choose your preferred voice (you can hear it before 
purchasing) 

3)

 

Purchase your preferred voice and launch the download. Your voice is now installed and accessible 
by choosing “9- Settings” then “3- Language and vocalisation” (cf chapter 15.3.1. in this guide).

15- Install the software updates 

 

In the next months or years, the software is going to evolve and be improved by the development of new 
applications and the improvement of existing ones. 

You  will  be  able  to  download  these  updates  to  enjoy  the  improvement  of  your  applications  and  of  the 
interface. 

To install those updates, you should visit from the Home screen the item “8- Updates” on a regular basis.  
In  this  section  you  will  find  all  new  updates  so  you  can  install  them  on  your  phone  as  soon  as  they  are 
available. You do not need to connect to your computer. 

We  strongly  advise  you  to  connect  your  phone  with  the  Wi-Fi  while  downloading  those  updates  and  to 
have at least 50% of battery charge.  

The  application  updates  are  displayed  over  three  submenus:  major  updates  (the  most  important 
evolutions), then minor updates (no new functionalities but small fixes), and finally the new applications. 

To update the system, first go to “4- Update system” to download the new version of the software. This 
kind of update is less frequent. Those files take a lot of space (Up to 200Mo) and take time to download. 
Follow the instructions to install the new software. This will restart your phone automatically and can take 
up to 2 or 3 minutes.  

To  receive  the  details of  available  updates,  you will be  asked  to  enter  a  few  personal  information  in  the 
Updates application
