Clipboard Menu replacement app - with speech? - General Topics

I have been looking for an app that will easily/quickly read text to speech from a Web page, email, etc. The ones that I have found require you to first copy and paste the text into their app.
But I am looking for something that will just let me highlight the text and click a button to start reading. If there was a replacement for the normal Clipboard Menu with a speech button, that would seem ideal.
Does anybody know of any apps that could do this?
Thanks!

I can't believe how I didn't see that. I was tapping and holding which brought up the share url dialog. I don't know why tap, release, tap hold seems totally unintuitive for me. Especially considering wouldn't it be so much easier for users that a single tap would bring up a menu of all the options, share url, paste, etc?

[Q] Messaging missing from "Share via" menu

As far as I remember, I used to be able to hit the menu butter and share a link via chrome or "reddit is fun" and I was given the option to send it via messaging. I no longer have this option. I still have the option to send pictures to the messaging app through the gallery, however so it does work with pictures. Does anyone know of a way to edit this menu or fix it so messaging is back in there so I can share links from chrome or reddit via messaging?
Thanks

Can't create messages / no messaging app

When i turn the bezel left, I can online read and answer to received messages. If there are no messages, I am not able to create one, as the three dots on the right site are missing. Also going into the list with all apps, there is no messaging app. In the manual it is displayed and described differently.
Is this the same for everyone? Or something wrong with my device(s)?

When I go into Apps, I have a Messaging app, from which I can send texts. Is your watch updated to the latest version?

yes, it says I am on the latest version.
I see on pictures the messaging app at second position. However unfortunately for me, the messaging app doesn't exist in the app menue.

What phone is the watch connected to?

Tried with LG G2 and Sony Z3 compact, inklusive factory resets of the S2 in between. Both phones should be compatible according to Samsung.
Non Galaxy phones don't get the email or messages apps, however, you can assign the Messages app to the double press Home button settings option under Device settings on watch. It is slightly limited, in that you will only see your side of text thread, but I created a text to the people I text most and jump back there to text them. You can also initiate a text via the Buddy app, and those texts go to the Messages app. So see if you can assign Messages app to double press Home button, use Buddy app to create a text to someone, send it and reply to them via notification. Should you want to text them again, double press Home button while on watch face, and select them and text them. Lather, rinse and repeat. Maybe not ideal, but totally workable for me.
I'm using an HTC One M8 and I finally got it paired after a day of trying. But now when I get texts I can't reply to them, I can only view them on my phone. I've used the default messaging app on my HTC as well as google hangouts. Any ideas on how to get it so I can reply via my watch?

Highlight Areas

Text to Speech
Is there a setting I'm missing to get this option working. I highlight the area as if to copy and paste, then a few things pop up but text to speech isn't there???
Thanks

How do you schedule text messages using the stock messaging app. I want to use the stock app so it will work with Bixby.
Thanks in advance
Press the small 4 box icon beside were you type your text messages and then you should be able to select schedule messages.
Tried to upload pictures but had network issues.
Edit seems was able to see below
Here is a picture of the icon you should see.
Once selected this would appear.

Thanks! That worked perfect.
Here my question, I have a scheduled text going out at a later time to several contacts. However, I want to edit it but cannot find it. How do you view a scheduled text going out to multiple people?

Search for text using magnifying glass search button. Didn't figure out how to re-edit it once scheduled though. Editing worked fine under Pie
I figured it out. After trying to do a search to no avail. I just happened to be scrolling through my conversation list and when I got to the bottom I saw the scheduled text to my group of people that I wanted to change so I just had to scroll to the very bottom of my conversation list to find that scheduled group text.
To edit your schedules text, just click on the" [emoji790]" clock next to the text. Then you'll see options, one of which is to EDIT.
