Hello Mike,
Yes this is how we are able to still speak when the app is in the background
or locked.  You will need iOS7 to have this feature.
Thanks.

Does the new app take advantage of the ability for apps to use the built in
TTS in IOS 7? If not, this would be a great feature and would allow the
program to work when the screen is locked. I realize this would exclude
anyone who is not on IOS 7, but those users are probably few and far
between, and there is no reason not to upgrade.
