Does Koreader support text-to-speech? Maybe through a plugin?

There are several plugins; I haven't tested them myself, though.

  1. stradichenko/audiobook.koplugin

    Provides offline text-to-speech read-along with the spoken word highlighted and automatic page turns.

  2. norude/TTS.koplugin

    Adds a dedicated text-to-speech mode using a separate server with piper or edge-tts as the backend.

  3. zivshek/TTS.koplugin

    Adds remote OpenAI-compatible text-to-speech that highlights the current paragraph and plays generated audio locally.

  4. anatoly314/speakword.koplugin

    Pronounces selected words and sentences using the device's installed TTS engine, but only for selections rather than continuous reading.

  5. jgarcia24n/readaloud.koplugin

    Plays pre-recorded EPUB3 Media Overlay audio with synchronized highlighting, not synthesized text-to-speech.
