Highlighted text to speech does not work in Adobe Express on iPad Pro OS 26.1

The native Text to Speech feature of my Mac Mini m2 reads only highlighted text and not the entire screen of a file in the desktop version of Adobe Express. But the native Text to Speech feature of my iPad Pro running OS 26.1 will only read the entire screen, and will not read only highlighted text of a file layer in the mobile app version of Adobe Express. Is there a fix to making the native Text to Speech feature of an ipad running OS 26.1, read only the highlighted text of a file imported into Adobe Express?

Hi Tarun,

I took a screen video to show you the entire screen being voice read instead of highlighted text in the Adobe Express app on my ipad pro. But I don't know how to upload a video to this forum to show you.  I get a message saying "You do not have permission to upload a video.  And I don't know how to turn a screen video into a URL, which is requested when I select video to upload with this text message.

Thanks for your response @Dimp88 . Please try uploading the video to a cloud storage service and share it with me via private message.

 

Private messages should be accessible from the envelope in the top right corner. This should be the direct URL https://community.adobe.com/t5/notes/privatenotespage

Thanks for reaching out! Could you please let us know where are you using the text to speech feature? Is it possible for you to share a screen recording of the issue so we can better understand it?

 

We're here to help, just need some info.
