## Description

NeuroSafe Reader transforms any website into a calmer, clearer reading experience — designed specifically for people with ADHD, dyslexia, autism spectrum conditions, and sensory processing sensitivity.

The web is built for everyone but optimised for no one. Busy layouts, auto-playing videos, cookie banners, sidebar noise, and clashing colours create significant cognitive load for neurodivergent users. NeuroSafe removes that friction.

WHAT IT DOES
──────────────────────────────

TYPOGRAPHY
- Switch to Atkinson Hyperlegible — a font designed for low vision and dyslexia
- Adjust font size (14–26px), line spacing (1.4–2.4), and letter spacing
- Larger text, more breathing room, less cramping

BACKGROUND
- Cream — warm, soft off-white (recommended for dyslexia)
- Grey — neutral, reduces glare
- Dark — low-contrast dark mode
- Original — leave unchanged

HIDE DISTRACTIONS
- Adverts and tracking elements
- Social share buttons
- Comment sections
- Sidebars and related posts
- Popups and cookie banners (including dynamically injected ones)

MOTION &amp; FOCUS
- Stop all animations and auto-playing video
- Reading progress bar — a thin teal line shows how far through an article you are
- Paragraph highlight — a gentle yellow tint on the paragraph under your cursor guides your eye
- Paragraph ruler lines — faint separators between paragraphs help maintain place

──────────────────────────────
HOW IT WORKS
──────────────────────────────

One master toggle turns it on or off for the current page. All individual settings can be adjusted independently. Use the "Override" button to save different settings for specific websites — a news site might need sidebars hidden but a reference site doesn't.

Settings save automatically and persist across sessions.

──────────────────────────────
PRIVACY
──────────────────────────────

NeuroSafe collects no data whatsoever. All settings are stored locally in your browser using Firefox's built-in storage API. Nothing is transmitted anywhere. No analytics. No tracking. No accounts.

──────────────────────────────
MINIMUM FIREFOX VERSION
──────────────────────────────

Requires Firefox 140 or later (desktop) and Firefox for Android 142 or later. This ensures the built-in data collection consent system is supported, so Firefox can confirm to you directly that this extension collects no data.
