Extension summary

Hyper Read is a browser extension designed to help neurodivergent individuals read online content with ease. Created by a team of neurodivergent developers, the extension utilizes a unique approach to transform web pages into text that is easier to read, emphasizing certain parts of words to guide the reader's eyes along the page. This feature is particularly useful for individuals with ADHD, dyslexia, and other neurodiverse conditions that may affect their reading abilities.

One of the challenges for neurodivergent individuals is processing the letters and words on a page. This can be especially difficult when there is a lot of text to read, as the process of scanning each individual letter and word can be time-consuming and exhausting. Hyper Read addresses this issue by highlighting key parts of words that the reader is already familiar with.

By emphasizing these familiar parts of words, the reader can quickly recognize them without having to scan each letter individually. This can significantly improve readability and comprehension, making it easier for neurodivergent individuals to retain information and stay focused.

Overall, Hyper Read is a game-changing tool for neurodivergent individuals who struggle with reading online content. By emphasizing familiar parts of words, the extension helps to improve readability, comprehension, retention, and focus, making it easier for individuals to engage with and understand online content. The customizable features also allow users to tailor the extension to their specific needs, making it a versatile tool that can be used by a wide range of neurodivergent individuals.

User reviews

Appears to only work on specific websites. For example, it worked on a Forbes article but did not adjust the appearance on this website (chrome web store), any pdfs, google search results, or forum posts.

Very good, it makes it easier to not lose my place in a page. Doesn't work in some context/pages but almost everywhere I need it.

This extension should be illegal, it's so good. Seriously, I feel like I have an unfair productivity advantage when I use it. Download it!
