User reviews

Good pace and voice, but very often it will suddenly stop working.

Amanda Jean Walker, 2025-03-07

loved the extension but didn't like how they weren't transparent about the AI voices and how those are not free to use, only for 5 minutes of reading. if you want more you have to pay. should make it clear to the user that they are using a trial of the voice
