Summary

For all the lazy heads(like me) out there, this smart summarizer will summarizes selected text and speak out the summary loudly. Now you can sit back, relax and simultaneously comprehend long texts. It can be used to quickly read, understand and get a gist of long articles and documents!

I don't mind this extension, however, it needs more work done. I think I would like it a lot better if you can summarise more words when I highlight a large text. When I highlight a paragraph of research studies (its roughly about a page), the summarizer only captures 3,4 or maybe even 5 bullet points from my highlighted text (which is roughly a large paragraph). The summariser is quite vague and inadequate as there are a few issues that needs to be fixed. If you can please change the style and the need for more summary texts, that would be amazing. I think that is the only issue I am having with this extension.
