Reader Mode why do you need it?

Reader mode is a feature some browsers incorporate that simplifies open pages by removing their ads, navigation panels, videos, and buttons. That feature enhances the readability of pages’ essential content. This is how you can enable reader mode in Google Chrome.

One of the ways to reduce this fatigue is to reduce the contrast between text and the screen. Easy Read Bee - text reader provides an overlay to cover the screen offering several different colours for users to choose from. Further you can change the colour of the text so that it further reduces the contrast with a simple reading mode extension.

Often reading on a screen can cause strain on the eyes and most of the time this is not perceptible to your consciousness. Read Bee are helpful to keep your eyes in a text view mode.

Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact.

Of the various "text mode" reader extensions I've tried in the last five years, I have chosen to stick with Read Bee for nearly the last three years. My only negative comments are when converting the webpage to text only, (1) the size of the "titles" and "subtitles" are significantly larger than the "meat" of the rest of the page; (2) sometimes the text of certain website is not converted. It is simply not there. I'm not a web developer so that could be a programming things done on purpose by the website developer. Other than that, I highly recommend this text mode reader extension over others.

Love this one! it is very simple and does the job! please add bionic reading option, IT IS PERFECT I use it in combination of the bionic reading one :)
