I'm porting an app from Android/iOS and it uses text-to-speech.

Anything like this available for windows phone?

I tried the Bing/Microsoft Translator APIs but they dont work and rumour says they are deprecated: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/259727/Text-to-speech-in-windows-phone7

Nuance is out of the question, as their fees are ridiculous.

Thanks in advance! swine

They do work. The Bing API is deprecated for use on Microsoft Translator services, the new format is to obtain tokens. I was able to implement a library for this, here:

Starting with Windows Phone 8, there is now a build in TTS engine. More details can be found in the official MSDN documents.
