Bookwidgets vs Wordwall and Learningapps.org in terms of audio input

 Wordwall and Learningapps.org have the 'Text to Speech' function for converting words inserted into audio's. However, you can't record your own voice. 

My own view is that speech samples created are not really that good, especially when very careful listening for discriminating between speech sounds is concerned. 

Bookwidgets, on the other hand, is the opposite. It doesn't have the 'text to speech' function. But you can record you own voice as input. All the widget formats allow you to do that.
