Extension summary

Reads out loud any page without leaving the page. Works continuously - even if you shift to a different tab. No tricks. No privacy violations. Does what it says it does - nothing else hidden under the hood. Listen to news, wiki articles & more, directly on their websites.

Reads any website, without having to copy text or leave the website.

TTSreader is particularly suited for content based websites, eg Wikipedia articles.

Please note: the ability to read an article on a site depends heavily on how the site is built (and tagged under the hood), as we try to read only the interesting content and skip non content like ads and stuff. In case you need it to read a site, and it does not do it very well, you can select the text, right-click with the mouse, then select 'Play Selected Text'. Also - please send us an email, or feedback on https://ttsreader.com/extension/guide/ so we can perhaps adjust for the site you need.

Main Features: Reading whole pages Select text on the page -> right mouse click menu -> read selection Marks the currently read sentence, so you can follow the reading.
