Hello,

The text-to-speech feature for articles is really great! However, since an article usually lasts around 5 minutes of audio, there’s one issue — the player doesn’t have a pause function.

Whenever you get interrupted, you have to start the playback from the beginning.
Would it be possible to add a pause option?

For instance, you could make pause the default action (a short tap pauses the playback without stopping it completely).
And if the user really wants to stop, a long press could do that.

There are many possible UX approaches, but this feature feels truly missing for anyone who regularly uses the text-to-speech option.

Thanks in advance!

Start by locating the text-to-speech player and its playback controls in the repository, then trace how playback is started and stopped. The issue does not specify a final UX, so completion would require deciding and implementing pause and stop behavior, including how short taps and long presses should work.
