Awesome. An attempt to create a lesson fails with: "An error occured while creating the lesson Network error: Failed to fetch"

So I retried. Now I have two of the same lessons. How can I delete?

Also, is the text-to-speech defined by the voices on the local machine? Because I'm getting the playback in native language only. (The target lang voice is installed...) (edit: had french/canada installed and I guess it doesn't count...)

Also, is there a more appropriate place for me to provide feedback/ask questions?




Atm there is no delete button but I'll add that to the backlog. Thanks for sharing!!

The text-to-speech uses Speech synthesis from the Web Speech API and I wish it worked seamlessly on all browsers but it doesn't. Are you using it on mobile? If yes and your device is a Samsung one please check that you are using Google's TTS engine and not Samsung's.

"You can pick which one by going to the Settings app, then Controls->Language and input->Text-to-speech options. Select the gear icon next to Google Text-to-speech Engine, then under Language you can update the exact locale you want to use. If you select "Install voice data" you can even select from a sample of different voices for some locales. You need to restart the device after changing this setting for it to take effect."

Yes, please shoot me an email at admin @ talkabl.com and let's pick it up from there :) Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
