There's a known issue with integrating plugins that use Swift into a Flutter project created with the Objective-C template. Flutter#16049

Example

To use this plugin :

• add the dependency to your pubspec.yaml file.

  dependencies:
    flutter:
      sdk: flutter
    flutter_tts:

• instantiate FlutterTts

FlutterTts flutterTts = FlutterTts();

To set shared audio instance (iOS only):

await flutterTts.setSharedInstance(true);

To set audio category and options (iOS only):

await flutterTts
        .setIosAudioCategory(IosTextToSpeechAudioCategory.playAndRecord, [
      IosTextToSpeechAudioCategoryOptions.allowBluetooth,
      IosTextToSpeechAudioCategoryOptions.allowBluetoothA2DP,
      IosTextToSpeechAudioCategoryOptions.mixWithOthers
    ]);

To await speak completion.

await flutterTts.awaitSpeakCompletion(true);

speak, stop, getLanguages, setLanguage, setSpeechRate, setVoice, setVolume, setPitch, isLanguageAvailable, setSharedInstance

Future _speak() async{
    var result = await flutterTts.speak("Hello World");
    if (result == 1) setState(() => ttsState = TtsState.playing);
}

Future _stop() async{
    var result = await flutterTts.stop();
    if (result == 1) setState(() => ttsState = TtsState.stopped);
}

List<dynamic> languages = await flutterTts.getLanguages;

await flutterTts.setLanguage("en-US");

await flutterTts.setSpeechRate(1.0);

await flutterTts.setVolume(1.0);

await flutterTts.setPitch(1.0);

await flutterTts.isLanguageAvailable("en-US");

// iOS and Web only
await flutterTts.pause();

// iOS, macOS, and Android only
await flutterTts.synthesizeToFile("Hello World", Platform.isAndroid ? "tts.wav" : "tts.caf");

await flutterTts.setVoice({"name": "Karen", "locale": "en-AU"});

// iOS only
await flutterTts.setSharedInstance(true);

// Android only
await flutterTts.setSilence(2);

await flutterTts.getEngines();

await flutterTts.isLanguageInstalled("en-AU");

await flutterTts.areLanguagesInstalled(["en-AU", "en-US"]);

await flutterTts.setQueueMode(1);

Listening for platform calls

flutterTts.setStartHandler(() {
  setState(() {
    ttsState = TtsState.playing;
  });
});

flutterTts.setCompletionHandler(() {
  setState(() {
    ttsState = TtsState.stopped;
  });
});

flutterTts.setProgressHandler((String text, int startOffset, int endOffset, String word) {
  setState(() {
    _currentWord = word;
  });
});

flutterTts.setErrorHandler((msg) {
  setState(() {
    ttsState = TtsState.stopped;
  });
});

flutterTts.setCancelHandler((msg) {
  setState(() {
    ttsState = TtsState.stopped;
  });
});

// iOS and Web
flutterTts.setPauseHandler((msg) {
  setState(() {
    ttsState = TtsState.paused;
  });
});

flutterTts.setContinueHandler((msg) {
  setState(() {
    ttsState = TtsState.continued;
  });
});
