Hi, Its works well. But is it possible to replace language that is not made for that language? E.g. put en-US Tom in en-GB. BTW: Do you know how to make auto language switch works for language other then English? When the phone language is setted to English, it can switch to Korean TTS when it reads encounter Korean or other languages. But if the phone language is setted to Korean, it always use Korean TTS to read Korean and Englsh. Is it something can be changed in the language fallback file?
