If you are looking to use a text-to-speak function, you can do so using your iPad or Mac (any Apple laptop or desktop computer running macOS).
On your iPad, you will first need to enable 'Spoken Content' in your iPad settings. To do this:
Launch “Settings”
Tap on “Accessibility”
Open “Spoken Content”
Slide “Speak Selection” ON.
You can then adjust the speaking speed rate and Preferred Voices, if desired.
Once you have enabled this feature on your device, open the Socrative App and navigate to your quiz. Hold your screen down to highlight where you would like to begin and select “Speak” from the pop-up menu. Your content can then be read aloud with the tap of a button!
Similarly, on your Mac:
Highlight the wording you would like to be read out loud
Right-click the highlighted section
Click "speech"
Click "start speaking"
Using Apple VoiceOver
Socrative works with built-in operating system screen readers such as Apple VoiceOver. Screen readers provide navigation and narration, meaning they can read on-screen text and interface elements aloud and help users move through items such as questions, buttons, and answer choices.
On iPhone or iPad
To enable VoiceOver:
Open Settings
Tap Accessibility
Tap VoiceOver
Turn VoiceOver on
Once enabled, VoiceOver will read out items on the screen and allow users to navigate the interface using standard VoiceOver controls.
On Mac
To enable VoiceOver:
Open System Settings
Go to Accessibility
Select VoiceOver
Turn VoiceOver on
