The text-to-speech tool can be found within the text tool in the Reels camera . Once the text is added, a text bubble will appear at the bottom of the screen and you can also choose between two voice options.
On the other hand, voice effects allow you to be more creative with your reels. This new feature will help you modify the audio or voiceover of your short video.
To see the voice effects, tap the music note button once you’ve recorded your ‘reel’ to open the audio mixer and choose the different types of effects.
