How to Activate Text

1. Download the latest version of the free Classic Text-to-Speech Engine for Android app at amazon.com. Click on the downloaded file and click 'run.' Follow the program prompts to complete installation.

2. Click on the book that you wish to hear by clicking on its associated icon on your phone's screen. Then select the text-to-voice option in the options box. Adjust the volume to the desired level -- using the control located on the side of your phone or the control on the touchscreen.

3. Use headphones with your Android phone to listen to your e-books, or activate the speakerphone option on the keyboard or in the control panel.
