I have a friend with a paralysed larynx who is often using his phone or a small laptop to type in order to communicate. I know he would love it if it was possible to take old recordings of him speaking and use that to give him back "his" voice, at least in some small measure.

Unfortunately I have yet to see something that can do this and provide a voice model that you could plug into Android TTS and/or Windows which are what he uses.

Why would you use a dedicated app? Does it have to be natively embedded in android ?
Does not have to be natively embedded. Should work locally without needing an internet connection to perform the speech generation though.
