Voice Notify
Voice Notify is an Android app that uses Text-To-Speech through the Accessibility service in Android 1.6 and above to speak notification messages from the status bar when they appear, allowing you to know what a notification says without looking at the screen. It features a fully customizable spoken message and a list of installed apps which can be ignored.
