Google TTS For NVDA v0.1.5

The initial public release of Google TTS For NVDA—bringing Google Chrome's WebAssembly (WASM) Text-to-Speech engine directly to your NVDA screen reader, working 100% offline.

Co-developed by Nguyen Anh Duc and Dao Duc Trung.


Key Features

  • Voice Support: Access all offline languages and voices from WasmTtsEngine (including fast Chrome OS packages and high-quality Google Natural packages).
  • 100% Offline: Speech is processed locally. No data is ever sent to external servers.
  • Accessible Voice Manager: Press NVDA+Ctrl+Shift+G to download or manage voice packages.

Known Issues

  • Voices may load slowly during the very first initialization.
  • Sentence pauses and speech segmentation might occasionally be slightly unnatural.

How to Install

  1. Download the .nvda-addon file from the Assets section below.
  2. Open the file to install, then restart NVDA.
  3. Switch your NVDA Synthesizer to Google TTS For NVDA.
  4. If no voices are installed, the Voice Manager will automatically open to help you download a voice package.
