This web app allows you to generate voice audio from text - no login needed, and it's completely free! It uses your browser's built-in voice synthesis technology, and so the voices will differ depending on the browser that you're using. You can download the audio as a file, but note that the downloaded voices may be different to your browser's voices because they are downloaded from an external text-to-speech server. If you don't like the externally-downloaded voice, you can use a recording app on your device to record the 'system' or 'internal' sound while you're playing the generated voice audio.
Want more voices? You can download the generated audio and then use voicechanger.io to add effects to the voice. For example, you can make the voice sound more robotic, or like a giant ogre, or an evil demon. You can even use it to reverse the generated audio, randomly distort the speed of the voice throughout the audio, add a scary ghost effect, or add an 'anonymous hacker' effect to it.
Text to speech mp3 with natural voices can be downloaded without any hurdles. We are offering various languages and letting you use the accents from commercial to public purposes. The speech is easy to listen to and clear to understand. All you need to do is to enter your text and you will get the complete audio clip in a natural voice.
Note: If the list of available text-to-speech voices is small, or all the voices sound the same, then you may need to install text-to-speech voices on your device. Many operating systems (including some versions of Android, for example) only come with one voice by default, and the others need to be downloaded in your device's settings. If you don't know how to install more voices, and you can't find a tutorial online, you can try downloading the audio with the download button instead. As mentioned above, the downloaded audio uses external voices which may be different to your device's local ones.
You're free to use the generated voices for any purpose - no attribution needed. You could use this website as a free voice over generator for narrating your videos in cases where don't want to use your real voice. You can also adjust the pitch of the voice to make it sound younger/older, and you can even adjust the rate/speed of the generated speech, so you can create a fast-talking high-pitched chipmunk voice if you want to.
Note: If you have offline-compatible voices installed on your device (check your system Text-To-Speech settings), then this web app works offline! Find the 'add to homescreen' or 'install' button in your browser to add a shortcut to this app in your home screen. And note that if you don't have an internet connection, or if for some reason the voice audio download isn't working for you, you can also use a recording app that records your devices 'internal' or 'system' sound.

Acapela-Box
Acapela-Box is a service that provides a conversion of your text into speech by using the Acapela Text to Speech technology. You can listen to the generated speech freely without limitation. If you want to use the corresponding sound file you need to create a personal account and purchase it. Purchasing is possible by prepaying a given amount of characters – see pricing information in the FAQ. This prepayment will be credited to your account. Each time you download a sound file, your credit will be reduced by the number of characters of your text message, blanks included. Your credit is valid as long as your account exists. Your prepayment is valid within 6 months after it has been paid by you. After 6 months your prepayment will not be reimbursable anymore, but you will be able to convert text into sound files as long as your account exists.
Your personal account will give you access to the log of your file creation and your payment history. Your sound files are stored for 7 days after you have purchased them and you can download them up to 5 times for back up purposes. After 7 days you can regenerate your sound files from the original texts for free during the lifetime of you account. However, please note we are constantly working on the enhancement of the quality of our text to speech engines and we can not guarantee that the regenerated file will be 100% equivalent to the version originally purchased and downloaded.
