Can I make iphone app speak? - iphone

I have already created an application which retrievs information through web service.
Now i thought about making the app read the titles and the user selected content.
Can I use any frameworks which would help me in making the text which I select to be in speech mode ie: It should read the content as similar as Windows speech Engine.

Flutter: Help in creation of an app that detects the user's handwriting and turns it into text

So, I have been at this project for a while now but I just didn't manage to find anything useful to help in the aid of making this app. I am basically just trying to create an app where the user can write something and the app will recognize the handwriting and turn it into text, where there will be a text guesser guessing what the text will be just in case if the user had written it wrong.
I would recommend checking Digital Ink Recognition from ML Kit, seems like it should resolve your problem: https://developers.google.com/ml-kit/vision/digital-ink-recognition

Embeding multiple apps in an app?

I am a newcomer to application development and I'm wondering if the concept I have can actually be created.
My concept involves creating an app that has the ability to embed another app within itself.
I'll do an example which is also a very bad one but you'll at least get the point.
Picture an app on the iphone that's called "Kwesi's app". Once you tap on it, it opens up a page with 3 icons. A facebook icon, a gmail icon and a hotmail icon. Now tap your finger on the gmail icon and instantly your gmail opens up withing "Kwesi's app" and you have full access. There is also a button in the top left corner that says "Main Menu". Once you tap the "Main Menu" icon, you go back to the three icons and can now rinse and repeat.
I hope this example is clear enough.
The question I seem to be coming back to is, would it be possible having an application that embeds or links you to other apps in that manner? I can only guess that it'd be really weird since they'd have to be installed seperately on your phone but I don't want that. I want one app that can handle an already set amount of apps within itself as the above example shows.
Thank you very much for reading and any thought would be very much appreciated.

No, that is not possible in iOS for security reasons. But you have the following choices to modify your idea:
Register a protocol for the app : This will allow you to send data between applications using protocols. However, if the app wasn't made by you and doesn't have a protocol, then you can't use it.
Using this idea, it is possible to open an application. For example, opening Facebook with "fb://" or evernote with "evernote://". I am sure there are other applications that have these protocols. Just be aware that you don't have control on the application in this case. You can only open it and send data to it.
Since your example was about Facebook, Gmail. Then I would suggest using their corresponding API and build everything in your application. Many famous applications provide APIs for a fee or free usage. You have to check with each one separately.

They provide a service that returns a XML representation of the route with turn by turn information included. You could feed this texts into a text to speech engine.

Is it possible for a mobile webpage to capture a picture?

Assuming you built a page for each specific mobile browser (Android/iOS/BB/etc.), is it possible to have a web application capture an image and send it to the server for processing?
I'd like there to be "Nothing to install" for my application, but if I need to reach out to the hardware at all, I fear it's not possible.
There is the Video Capture API but I have no idea how widely spread addoption is at present and it is very new.
IF this api isn't avalible there isn't really much you can do other then asking users to upload it using a standard file upload and them to take the picture before hand.
This is one area that a native application would be far far better as intergeneration would be easier and more seamless for the user.
