en | I'd love to give this 5 stars. But it's incredibly inconsistent. I use it on a specific website. Sometimes it works flawlessly. Sometimes it won't work at all. And once it stops working, it's frustrating trying to get it to work again. |

en | It would be better if there is a floating button. The voice is still not very natural. It is recommended to add Edge's voice model. |

en | Hit or miss. Works when it wants to. Seems like a free alternative to annoy you and forces you to pay or use another screen reader with ads. I really don't know how it got this rating, but if your a developer, i'm sure you could find a way to pump up your rating. |

en | Worked flawlessly until it didn't. For months after I downloaded it, it was my go to everyday until today. I am not sure if it my computer or the app but it will not read sometimes and sometimes it will start and make it through a line or 2 then stop. I'm very upset I gotta find a new app and toss this one I need something reliable for my school work and this just does not seem to be it. |

Had the extension downloaded for two hours. In that time, it worked twice. I ensured no other tabs or instances of Chrome were active. Surprisingly, it worked PERFECTLY on their own website. And I don't know who is narrating the video, but Pericles is pronounced peh-ruh-kleez. Not peh-ruh-culls. I mean, you even use a Grecian helmet as your logo. I would imagine you'd pronounce the name of the greatest Athenian politicians correctly. TL;DR -- Only works faithfully on the creator's website. Not worth your time. |
