The dyslexie font chrome extension has made reading on my desktop such a miracle for me. I was always the worst reader in school and many teachers made sure i knew it. I began avoiding reading at every turn and hated school. Now that I am an adult, I decided to took to see what new possibilities could be found to help me. Dyslexie chrome extension is the answer for me. I still am teary eyed that I can easily read the words and actually understand sentences the very first run through. I am now making up for lost time and have extreme gratitude.

Honestly, it's pretty decent as a freemium product. I haven't had any notable issues, and it has (thus far) worked as advertised. It makes the formatting of some web pages a little weird, but that's to be expected with *any* manual font overrides or even just messing around with scaling at the browser or Windows level. However, I would appreciate an option to purchase the unlock for this web extension as a separate, standalone cost decoupled from the Dyslexie Office Suite. The suite is an ongoing subscription and far too expensive to justify if you're like me and only care about fully unlocking the extension. I'll just make due with its default settings. Disclaimer: I did purchase the font license to use on my personal devices, which felt like a fair price, but I don't currently plan on using the proprietary office suite – either the freemium or licensed version – although the value prospect changes entirely if you want to utilize the office suite as well. YMMV.

its a little unfortunate the free version is so limited, but we all have to keep the lights on i suppose. normally i'd just use opendyslexic but chromium browsers render the tops of opendyslexic letters too skinny, and dyslexie renders a little better at least on my computer. (to be honest, its not like the opendyslexic chrome extensions have options either, so the free version of dyslexie is on par with those lol)

I like the font, was only really looking for the font to use in word docs rather then the whole web. I appreciate that I only have the free version but why set the font size so large when so many people are choosing smaller screens? On my chrome book screen it is just too large to be at all helpful and reducing the magnification of the page just caused the text to bunch up together and leave lots of unused space around text boxes on web pages making it much harder to read. Due to your pricing structure I cannot take out a subscription. I could of possibly done a one off payment but that wouldnt work on the chromebook or phone so pretty pointless

The font is amazing and it has helped so much and the extension, in theory, is great. In reality, however, it distorts pages a lot, it cannot be shut down when it's doing weird things (in the video it says you can just turn it off, but in reality this is not possible), sometimes I am even unable to click on buttons or sign in to my accounts. I would LOOOVE for this extension to work properly because seriously, it is great and I am grateful something like this is invented. I am totally willing to pay for this, but I constantly feel like it's a monster that took over my desktop and I am unable to fix it. I was even watching netflix and the font went into the biggest mode and I could not turn it off! I would really love it for this to work properly

I love the text but it does distort pages a lot. Buttons are made invisible, which is ironic for something that is supposed to make things easier for people with print blindness. The buttons disappearing means that sections where buttons would be are just blank completely, but the area is still active and can be clicked, without you knowing what it is. Text doesn't always work, so sometimes every other line is in default font, followed by dyslexie font. If I knew the paid version would work better I'd get it, but I'm not sure it would.
