Features & Capabilities

English Web Text-to-Speech Reader is a Firefox accessibility extension. After clicking the extension button in the toolbar, it extracts the main article content from the current webpage and reads it aloud using the system voice in a separate, clean reading tab. It is suitable for text-focused pages such as news articles, blogs, tutorials, encyclopedias, and product documentation. Privacy Notice: It does not send articles, webpage URLs, voice settings, or analytics data. It contains no advertising, tracking, telemetry, or remote code. Articles are stored only in the current Firefox session’s in-memory browser.storage.session. The associated article is deleted when its reading tab is closed; all article session data is cleared when Firefox stops. How to use: Open a regular webpage containing an article, click the extension button, select the starting sentence in the newly opened reading tab, and then click Start Reading. The extension’s own source code is licensed under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL-2.0).

Is Web Article Voice Reader Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Web Article Voice Reader requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Web Article Voice Reader is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
