| 2024-11-11 |  | | en | Really good tool! I've used a few different "AI Readers" over the course of me learning Python and this is by far the best. 1. Highlighting the text that it's reading currently is a great edition. 2. The voice is very human like. I think my only negative/wanted feature would be a volume bar to adjust the volume of the reader, other than that its great. |
| 2024-11-10 |  | | en | When I use it to read answers on Quora ,it alarms "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'lang')". I changed select areas,it still alarms. |
| 2024-11-01 |  | | en | Phenomenal extension, as a student I really need OmniReader to save screen time and enjoy more of life by listening to content so I can walk around and learn. One thing I really wish is that it simply played the voices as a website audio (like youtube or any media) that I could control the rate and skipping with another extension called Global Speed (GS). GS extension is very advanced with respect to keyboard shortcuts, such as ASDF controls ("a" key to slow down, "S" key to normalize speed to 1x, and "D" key to speed up), as well as "Z" and "X" to skip back and forward, respectively. Also wish we could enable hover mode without autoplay. Requests 1. The app is not working at present, maybe needs an update? 2. Forgot password option. I can't get the app to activate so maybe it has been added. |

| 2024-09-30 |  | | en | It's a very useful tool with great design! |
| 2024-09-25 |  | | en | Exactly what I was looking for! Amazing. |
| 2024-09-25 |  | | en | It works great overall. But sometimes it takes a bit more time to process the page before I can click any place to read. I hope this can be improved. |
| 2024-09-23 |  | | en | This is an excellent plugin. It can help me read articles on the page with just a click. It can also highlight and scroll through the content. When I'm working, I can wear headphones to listen to articles, and if I want to know more details, I can go back to the page to read the content directly. Kudos to the developers! |
