Indeed, it must have been challenging for you to manage this through 'Dropbox' administration, but the reward is well worth it. This feature now works seamlessly and flawlessly on the Windows 10 Chrome browser that I currently use. Thank you for reinstating the 'sync' feature. Additionally, having used @VoiceAloud app on Android since September 2018, I must express my continued satisfaction and admiration — it has been an invaluable tool for me for 6-years listening to web & PDF articles and eBooks alike.

This is working very well across my Windows machines and Android tablets. I recommend using Kiwi browser on Android because it will allow installing this extension.

The newer version uses Dropbox. This is a great way to add web pages to listen to on the road.
