  • (2024-04-15) Pomrani an: Used to be a excellent app. Now it includes malware that redirects you to impacthero.co without your permission.
  • (2024-03-17) Rayne: started randomly opening a "impacthero.co" page on random link clicking
  • (2023-10-09) acer acer: the amount of features this extension is providing is absolutely amazing and I'm here to thank for making such a handy and useful software.... just loved it
  • (2023-10-03) Tejoshmoy Dutta (Troid): Good job with the Ruler toggle for the dyslexic folks.
  • (2023-10-03) Taq Seorangpun: I tried to use this extension on a website that keeps flickering every few seconds (obviously using javascript). Unfortunately the "read mode" page also flickers in the same frequency, which makes it unusable.
  • (2023-08-12) NITHISH KUMAR: I love the way the extension is done. Simple, flexible, and free to use. I used Chrome flags reader mode. But for some reason it doesn't work. But this extension made it much easier.
  • (2023-07-31) Premkumar Chalmeti: Quiet handy! Its often hard to find the exact tool for my need and when I thought about a distraction free reading view. This was exactly what I wanted! Thanks for this

  • (2023-07-22) kim hyung: I don't understand why some people are finding the app unaccessible or hard to use ITS so straightforward. i have dyslexia and even i can comprehend how to use this app. its really not rocket science...
  • (2023-07-22) Nel Mckenn: this app changed my life. i suffer with severe dyslexia and sometimes ADHD therefore this app helps me be more productive as it helps with my reading THANKYOU READER MODE!
  • (2023-07-22) Chanel McKenzie: WOW IM ABSOLUTELY INLOVE WITH THIS APP SO EXCITED FOR THE NEW FEATURES IN THE FUTURE :333
  • (2023-06-01) Melissa: It is a false advertisement in description saying a free web reader, the only feature they should have had for free is the language that should been a free feature an I'm just trying it out now an having issues with the language it says gb english but the page I'm trying to read is not one bit readable it's all in a different language an gb english with my knowledge that should been readable since they are english still like I am, website was also in english before I clicked the extension to bypass the paywall of the site an since I'm not a pro or premium I just play around with the language on the extension to fix the issue. I know nothing of coding an all of that jumbo to go through the site with inspect an fix it.
  • (2023-04-14) Oлександр Юрійович: Я використовую плагін Reader Mode вже деякий час і можу сказати, що він працює непогано. Функціонал зняття реклами та інших відволікаючих елементів дійсно полегшує читання статей. Однак, є одна проблема, яку б я хотів відзначити - в плагіні немає підтримки жодного варіанту української мови, тоді як є аж три нікому не потрібні варіанти росіянської мови. Це здається незрозумілим, особливо з огляду на те, що українська мова є однією з найбільш поширених мов в Інтернеті. За цю проблему я б оцінив плагін на 3 з 5 балів.
  • (2023-03-16) Tahni A: Its okay, does as advertised but a lot is locked without paying for premium versions. However this can easily be avoided with other free extensions to highlight and read aloud etc etc. Overall works well.
  • (2023-02-27) S D (Diddy): Works well right off the bat with minimal setup. I haven't seen any ads yet - though there is a pro version. Many thanks to the developers!
  • (2023-02-18) Chris: Esc key does not close the Reader, and it's a limited version restricted by a paywall.
  • (2023-02-05) Kovid Khokar: really good app doesn't force you to pay for it and has the main features for free. personally i m a student so cant afford to pay. so i download the document as pdf and then edit it in a pdf reader
  • (2023-01-30) Qi Wng: could anyone tell me the shortcut key?
  • (2023-01-18) Baylin Adam: Oke
  • (2023-01-09) Darren McAffee: Fantastic for reading articles and saving as clean PDFs without ads for offline reading. However, it is not perfect yet. One article I was interested in was a microscopy article at https://www.olympus-lifescience.com/en/microscope-resource/primer/techniques/darkfield/ and in the reader mode, some of the images were stuck with a loading SVG. I realized that the img tag "srcset" was overriding "src" attribute, so after I inspected each img tag and deleted the "srcset" attribute then all the images appeared correctly and I could save the article as a clean PDF.
  • (2022-12-16) Дмитрий Стрельцов: Sadly not have ability to save article as HTML with images
  • (2022-12-13) Thien Thai: Doesn't work on some site that I need that work. Oh, i mean most of the site, newspaper, blog ... Maybe the site block crawling.
  • (2022-12-05) Ahnastasia R. Alarcon: Does not bypass websites paywalls as advertised.
  • (2022-11-21) Vlin: best ever, finally found it
  • (2022-10-28) Cindy Bahl (Cindy): Used to like it but now some of the functionality doesn't work. I'm using the free version on Chrome and Brave. I look at my options to confirm images will be included. But they aren't.
  • (2022-10-04) John Goundry: Really poor, can't bypass paywalls as advertised, simply turns pages into a text only format.
  • (2022-09-13) Ife: cant print pages
  • (2022-08-20) Omar Wahsha: good and easy to use can also change the color of the background
  • (2022-08-13) Burner: Works but its paywalled. Nowhere does it say that its actually a trial. There's a limit on how many pages you can use reader mode on before it locks you out.
  • (2022-08-13) Gigih Ramadhan: This extension is very good. we can change font and disable ads so i can read LN without being disturbed 8/10
  • (2022-07-21) Chad Sparkes: I installed this extension when a specific article I wanted to read had a paywall. Installed, refreshed, hit the button, and while the page did get drastically simplified, the paywall did not go away.
  • (2022-07-20) Carmine: problem is the target for profit profit, featuere behind a pay-retal check, too dam expensive aim to help those that have issue reading sure for what cost, profit on people disadvantages, don't feel great at all. Who ever is supporting this sub paying system too must consider the you doing bad thing to the comunty as whole. no evryone can make that much money and still have money to spear, is alrady hard living with a disavantage like not been able to read propely.
  • (2022-07-08) Par Kla: Doesnt work as described. Pages look the same.
  • (2022-07-08) - Herfen -: Viiiiiiiel zu teuer. Man kann eben nicht jeden Mist gegen monatl. Gebühr verhökern. Hoffe ihr habt eure richtigen Jobs noch nicht hingeschmissen.
  • (2022-06-01) Armando Loyola: I'm looking for something simple, like the option that keeps disappearing from Chrome. Tired of having to reactivate it I was looking for an extension. This do the job, slower than the native option, but adds some unwelcome functionality. First it spam a pro version, and selected text has this floating menu with options I can't see ever using. I need less than this.
  • (2022-03-23) duarte: Very good tool, sometimes it bugs the page but we can't have everything!!!
  • (2022-03-01) Md. Nahidul Alam Chowdhury: Amazing.
  • (2022-01-23) Onkar Charate: Best Extension For Reading
  • (2021-12-03) Maurício de Sá Cominetti: Excellent extension, works like the reader mode of Safari on iPhone. Very helpful to read without distraction.
  • (2021-10-29) Pat MySecret: It's a good reader that does seem to have a few perks/options that others don't. ..easy Twitter linking, nice placement of meta/link and author at top, aside from the numerous detailed options it offers. It does do some advertising
  • (2021-09-16) Mauricio Andres Castaneda Acuna: No sirve para nada es una extensión pésima, aveces lee aveces no y cuando lee, lee menos de 10 palabras y ya, la desinstalo por eso mismo, no me sirvio para nada.
  • (2021-09-15) Uriel Rivera: Buenísima para celular
  • (2021-08-12) Zoran M: It's ok when it works, which it often doesn't. Choosing voice you have to scroll through dozens of those you don't need.
  • (2021-07-23) Hank Cheng: I bought Reader Mode Pro and found a bug(voice would stop after a couples of lines). I reported the bug to the author, but I got no response. I want my money back.
  • (2021-07-20) Colin Stodd: Definition of False advertisement. The description tells you, you get all these features, but you get a blank page with white background and black text for your options. I'm a developer, and it just inspired me to create something better and Freeer. To the developer: Strip the misleading text, you're only damaging your reputation as a clickbait/EMS chasing developer. or use a donation box. You'll make more money.

  • (2023-09-20, v:1.3.2) Joel Wyrick: Does not display some images

  • (2023-08-09, v:1.2.6) Gerald Wexler: Dark mode prints all background black.
    I love your app but it has one huge problem. I view and print almost sites I can in Dark mode. However, when printing a page in dark mode, the text comes out light, as it should, but the background is all black. Covering a page with black background is huge waste of toner and environmentally and financially wasteful. Your competition, Reader View, will print all pages displayed in dark mode with a standard white background, the way a printed page is meant to be displayed. Can you fix this. I love your app but have stopped using your app because of this major problem.
  • (2023-02-10, v:1.2.6) Carol Metzger: How do I use this?

  • (2021-11-07, v:1.2.5) Xavier Bellanca: Why I can't see the reader mode on the whole page?
    Hi. I've installed the Reader Mode extension but it seems it doesn't work properly. To be more specific, when I turn on the extension the window in reading mode appears only in the right side of the screen, wide about 250 pixel, while in the background remains the original page. It looks quite annoying. Please, can you help me to fix this? Thank you in advance.

  • (2021-06-12, v:1.2.5) Frances Cherman: Two suggestions
    Please add: 1. Multiple highlighting colors 2. Allow an option to remove the website name from the page title. This could be achieved via: a) a user option to use the <h1> element instead of the <title> element as the page title; or b) a script that looks for the typical separators in a page title, such as an "en" dash surrounded by space characters (e.g. The Sun Also Rises – Amazon); or c) the option for the reader to edit the title without going into the Chrome Inspector, which is what I currently have to do.

    For example, https://www.kaggle.com/dansbecker/underfitting-and-overfitting, activating reading mode just removes the content. I know this is running in a jupyter notebook which I assume is the likely reason.
