| 2024-10-30 |  | | en | There is no automatic reading, and it doesnt actually read any webpage. Instead, a popup comes up that you have to manually paste all the text into for it to read. It`s a major nuisance, and completely a waste of time (as it takes 2-3x longer just to read anything in this way). Boooooooo. One commentor says 3.4 rating is underrated, I say it`s too high. I wouldn`t recommend this at all. |
| 2024-09-27 |  | | en | I like this one very much. It is friendly, not penetrant. Ok a bit slow, the voice, yes, but for me - as a non-native-speakter - that is very good. :) Amongst that, what is available currently I like it. I feel, 3.4 is a bit underrated. I just see, 40.000 users, who knows how many are happy with it :) Maybe Dev could make a small campaign asking for rating. I would assume, at least a 4star from majoritiy as happy clients Happy people often do not rate. I like the simplicity. Ok, what I don´t like is, that while listening, I can´t scroll because the extension forces the site to stay where the highlighted text is. |
| 2024-08-30 |  | | en | Cuts off, and also very slow. Would love some alternate speeds. |
| 2024-08-13 |  | | en | good! |
| 2024-06-16 |  | | en | Not "natural". Only 3 bad voices available. |
| 2024-04-04 |  | | en | Cuts off very soon. US voices are bad, use UK instead (and live with the accent). Too many "joke voices" like "bubbles" (one would be too many but 8 out of 10 are like this... useless I mean...). Thanks for the effort but I will not be using this. |
| 2024-02-19 |  | | en | Most of voices stops speech after 50 words. Some voices say "dot". No speech speed. |
| 2024-01-19 |  | | en | Considering Chrome doesn't have this feature and Edge does, this is a welcome upgrade. Its not perfect but I give it 5 for filling a need. |
| 2023-11-10 |  | | Stoped working after 50 words. Only one French voice. Wont work in editable space even when the setting is on. terrible waist of time | |
