2024-09-08 | Shah Alam | en | 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. | |
2024-08-19 | Lynne Brown | en | 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. | |
2021-09-01 | Zoran M | en | Working again, now with Dropbox. It seems to be to click-happy and saves without providing a dialogue box confirming that you want to save. The extension as well as the app now seems archaic. I see now that it saves the whole bulk of the web page without trimming it into an article view. Trying to edit within the Android app, ie to delete the useless text, is very cumbersome. This is no match to modern apps and browser extensions. | |
2024-07-27 | Scott Smith | en | The newer version uses Dropbox. This is a great way to add web pages to listen to on the road. | |

2021-09-01 | Zoran M | Very good and useful app, just a bit lacking in user friendly instructions. You have to work everything out from discussions in the forum. Eg, for this extension to work you have to manually create a folder in your Google Drive and name it @Voice. It works well with Voice plug-in. | ||
2021-06-25 | ic ow | I have used this extension across devices for years. I still use it. this app and extension is not for people who don't have any experience with tts readers. It does take some configuration periodically. I admit I have forgotten several times over the years what I have to do to configure it. I keep the app and extensions and eventually remember how to configure the app. He has Youtube how to tutorials that help. You can read html, pdf, and epub easily. I recommend open a blank item to read and open file from there to have the most graphic friendly file browser. Don't say the app is broken if you aren't willing to configure the app. | ||
