Driving Mode - Text to Speech Notifications

[robo21]

I just got my Tmobile Galaxy S5 last week. I upgraded from the S2 and this is a very nice jump. The phone is remarkable.

Unfortunately though, I really miss the "Driving Mode" from the S2. It would announce incoming emails, incoming texts, phone calls etc. as well as the sender on texts and the caller on phone calls.

Has anyone found a way to obtain these features on the S5 yet? Is there an app that would do this?

Help!

There are many driving mode apps, check out the play store.

Thanks, I have seen them. Unfortunately, they range in functions from shutting off your ability to receive and send text messages to just reading certain notifications.

I was hoping to find a widget that would work like the Driving Mode Widget from the Galaxy S2. I am looking for an app that will read caller ID, text message (and announce sender), incoming email, etc.

Did a lot of search and the options are thin, but there are some.
