Since a couple of weeks, there is a free API that you can use to make Telegram Phone Calls (with TTS Voice). It will ring your phone and “read” the message that you specify. It is very useful for urgent notifications like Alarms, Fire, etc. Instructions are here and very easy to follow with OpenHa…

OpenHab can make Telegram Phone Calls now! (with TTS Voice)
