GETTING STARTED:
Voice Notify operates through Android's Notification Listener service and must be enabled in the Notification Access settings.
A shortcut to that screen is provided at the top of the main Voice Notify screen.

Some device brands, such as Xiaomi and Samsung among several others, have an additional permission that by default prevents apps like Voice Notify from auto-starting or running in the background.
When Voice Notify is opened on a known affected device and the service isn't running, a dialog will appear with instructions and in some cases can open directly into the relevant settings screen.

PERMISSIONS:
• Post Notifications - Required to post the test notification. This is typically the only permission that Android shows to the user.
• Query All Packages - Required to fetch a list of all installed apps for the App List and allow for per-app settings
• Bluetooth - Required to detect whether Bluetooth headset is connected
• Vibrate - Required for Test feature while device is in vibrate mode
• Modify Audio Settings - Required for improved wired headset detection
• Read Phone State - Required to interrupt TTS if a phone call becomes active [Android 11 and below]

ABOUT AUDIO STREAM OPTION:
Behavior of audio streams may vary by device or Android version, so I advise doing your own testing to determine which stream is right for you. The Media stream (default) should be good for most people.

DISCLAIMER:
Voice Notify developers are not responsible for the notifications that are announced. Options are provided to help prevent unwanted announcing of notifications. Use at your own risk!
