This would be great. I've read some people have worked their way up to 4X normal speed.

I think only a very minority of users listen at these rates.

You're right. Most users won't listen at 2.5 times normal speed, but there is no harm in providing the option for the minority of users that would like to.

2.5 is better than 2.0, however I still consider this is not enough. Currently 2.0 is a normal speed for me, but there are some readers who read way too slow, so I guess in perspective 2.5 won't be enough as well. By the way, VLC provides playback speed up to 4.0, so I consider to use the same value.

I would also like this feature up to 4x

Now I listen at 2.5 and would increase the speed even more. How about making the upper speed limit editable via config file?

Or even through settings, the user could pick the maximum/desired speed and apply it across all books like some podcast apps do.

I created a Fork of Voice here with a max playback speed of 6. If anyone else want to use it feel free. Also feel free to bug me to pull changes from master in the issues if I fall behind, I will try to keep this up to date though. Release will be attatched with an apk in the releases section on Github:

This is great, already listening at 4x speed. Would you be able to add the option to apply a speed across all all books?
