2022-08-11	User		Это лучшее расширение из всех, которые есть на этом сайте.
2020-11-02	Dušan		Good extension, it does what annouced. It is the best one which I've tested till now. I like its English speaking. The longest article which I had tested lasted over 20 min. and worked OK. I APPRECIATE the possibility to preset speed, pitch and volume. It can read even OFFline PDF files opened in Chrome. I MISS the button "Stop" and my native language - Czech. I WOULD LIKE to have the possibility to start speaking from specific word/ sentence without the need to copy the whole article/ chapter.
2020-07-06	abel mejias		Me gusta pero no veo donde darle pausa o cuando quiero copiar y pegar algo empieza a narrar asi no mas.
2019-09-24	Kevin T.		It has 5 stars if it allows Right Click and speak only. I don't want both options on "When Text is selected": Speak or Show Speak Button. They are too annoyed, cover the text or noisy.

2019-09-03	Joshua Scholar		It seems to be the free option. It works perfectly with the installed voices, but for the other voices, which I assume work by shipping data through the net, only very short quotes will be read.
2019-09-02	שרה לוי		מצוין רמה גבוהה של דיבור , נשמע טוב. אפשרויות די נוחות
2018-12-29	Greg Saunders		Perfect for what I was looking for: a quick way to proofread my Google gmail. The ability to highlight and use either the button or context menu is awesome. I am including this app in my daily "toolbox". Well done!
2018-12-29	Phuong Tran		Good one! Improve the icon will be better
