    1. It’s already out, and it’s not in the official App Store because Apple restricts developers from making this kind of application. You have to get it through Cydia, the application you use to get unofficial applications when you jailbreak your iPhone. I’ve downloaded it and it works.

      The current version for download doesn’t have the vocalization, but a new version that does will be released very soon.
