What do you mean with "doesn't speak"?

Why are you calling StartActivity twice?

Hi, I inserted Activity.x2 to make an error during test attempts ... If I send the query to google search it does not tell me with my voice if there is traffic on the street but only opens the page with indications

You don't have control over the third party app behavior.

Maybe not well known but the recent B4A versions support Text-To-Speak (TTS). I am very curious whether the enclosed old (but working) TTS test program actually pronounces the entered text. If the program speaks the text, there is standard speaking support (and in your case a problem with the software setting of your Activity.x2 application). Please let us know the result.
