Version History 5.2.1 (5210)

This update brings official support for macOS 15 Sequoia. The biggest new feature is support for the SSML markup. Optionally enabled, the SSML markup allows you to add pauses or control speech properties inline.

• Support for SSML markup to control reading attributes. Enable it in the preferences to get started.
• Optional word counter. Enable it in the preferences.
• Filtering the voice list by language also works on macOS.
• New macOS icon better matches its iOS counterpart.
• Minor design tweaks and other improvements.

New in 5.2.1:
• Voice speed and pitch sliders are now disabled when SSML mode is enabled, as SSML overrides these settings.
