voice output

Sound from speakers

Voice output is sound produced by a device in the form of spoken words, typically generated by text-to-speech technology or pre-recorded audio.

Screen readers use voice output to make computers accessible to blind users.

Voice output also describes any system that communicates information audibly rather than visually: The GPS gave voice output for each turn.
