It would be nice to have a sample of the audio quality and voice(s) it uses on the website so we know what it will sound like. -- Edit: I installed it, ran it and got the first time wizard, granted permissions and hit continue and it just exits without any other message or screen. It isn't in the menu bar. I run it again and get the same. It says the permissions are granted already the second time though. I like the interface on the website a lot, so I would love to use this. Thoughts?

Can you paste your system specs here for me? It's running for me just fine and on a few other laptops here, but I am curious if there's something on your laptop that might be giving issues... It does require Mac w/ Apple M1+. Happy to debug and get it working for you!

    On it! I’ll ping you when I have a culprit

    Okay, 0.1.9 is out now and should fix the issue... I also added a way to report crashes, so IF it still gives you issues, let me know and please report the crash

      I had to click Skip to get past the intro screens, then the app comes up. I went to settings and pasted in my license, clicking activate says it's not valid. It is the key on my polar.sh account and I copy/pasted it so I know it's correct. Then it crashed.

Oh also, on the website, the first preview in the hero does give a real synthesized example I pulled using the app! Its not clear that the other screenshots are not interactive

I experience the same. M5 Pro MBP, 64gb RAM. If I click "skip" on the wizard, it gets 1 screen further then crashes with no feedback on next interaction.

  On it! Pushed out a fix for something else earlier and didn’t go through a clean install to test. Should have a fix shortly. Just getting off a plane though. Will follow up when I have it nailed down.

    Tried it out - tested on a few bits of text and it reads 1 sentence then goes non-responsive and pegs a cpu core to 100%. It doesn't crash so I don't have opportunity to report. I have to force quit the app manually.

      Looking into it again.. Thanks a ton for the help debugging. I haven't run into any of these issues personally
    - bherms 2mo ago
      Found the issue, published a new build, added a few features, and tested on a few devices now that I'm back home. Should be fully operational for you now!

        It doesn't crash on me anymore! But it won't take my license key, and I am just hitting the copy button on polar.sh to copy the key and paste it in.
