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.

Multilingual, multiple voices and accents.

fantástica,falta poder pagar 7,49Euros por transferencia bancaria:TTSReader permite exportar la voz sintetizada con un solo clic. Actualmente está disponible solo en Windows y requiere el token premium de ttsreader TTSReader Premium Token en Chrome web store. me gustaría que la ventana se agrandase o fijarla,como sustituto,configuración de Chrome,más herramientas,crear acceso directo,y que aclaren que hay que configurar en la configuración de contenido,para un optimo funcionamiento(yo se: no bloquear el microfono,hasta hay llego,jejejej).

Best free text to speech browser addon I've tried. The voice I use is easy to get used to and it really helps me to be able to look at the text while listening when I have difficulties concentrating. I have attention deficiency and this really is a lifesaver for my multi-tasking tendencies, letting me "read" articles and online books while doing other stuff. It would be great to see some editing options on how some markings are read. For example, many texts I read have many creative ways to separate chapters, and there's a limit to how many time I like to hear tildatildatildatildatildatildatildatilda etc when the author has meant them just for decoration. Highlighting a marking and picking an option to skip it next time could work? Only minus is the complications with the premium. I really like the free version and wanted to support it, expecting to get rid of the pop up ads after getting the premium, but the premium icon just redirected to the page. If I understood correctly, I'd had to get the premium to get an account, and THEN pay more to get rid of the ads? If I didn't understand correctly, it just says something about how difficult to understand upgrading is. I managed to cancel my payment without any issues but would have really wanted to get basically this free version but without ads+some editing options, it would really be worth the money for me. I would suggest adding an option to just upgrading the browser addon, without having to purchase a whole premium version only to be able to pay more money, or alternatively clearly expressing if the premium doesn't automatically affect the browser addon. And if it really does but everyone's been having problems with it, writing a easy to understand instructions for it. In any case, a wonderful extension!
