Can I get my Pixel XL to say my name when I get a notification

[Android Central Question]

I have downloaded Tasker and Autovoice but I don't know how to use them. Basically, I would like my phone to say Hey Matt, you have a text or Hey Matt you have an email. Is this possible using these apps? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try Macrodroid - you can set receiving a text as the trigger and Speak Text as the action.

You can also just use a voice recorder and record your own notifications. Find someone that you know and ask them to record those phrases, then you can set them as your notification sounds. Don't do it yourself, because yourself telling yourself that you have a message would be a little weird...
