The app for Windows determines the language based on the voice chosen in the system setting. If you want to change the language or voice while using the app, please set the voice and its speed in the system setting, and then, re-select the language on the app. It will reload the voice.
The Windows Phone version determines the language based on the system's main language setting. You cannot change the language or voice while you are using the app.
The user interface messages are limited to English and Japanese so far. Volunteers (unpaid) are needed for the translation work.
