This Chrome browser extension provides support for activating links and other HTML elements using voice commands.
Click by Voice - Control your Browser with Voice Commands
'Click by Voice' is a specialized Chrome extension that assigns numbers to each clickable or focusable item on a webpage. Users can activate these items via keyboard commands, introduced manually or via voice. This extension does not itself provide voice functionality. Instead, users can use other services like Vocola for voice commands. The extension supports functions like focusing on input elements, clicking elements, and opening links on both the same and a new tab or window.

Normally it works fantastic, but lately it doesn't work anymore!! On neither of 2 PC's. I guess since the latest update from June 4th. Please, help!!
Normaal gesproken zeer tevreden, maar sinds een dag of 10 werkt het helemaal niet meer!! ik zie nu dat de laatste update op 4 juni 24 was, dus ik denk sindsdien.
