• (2024-08-28) Jaeden Michaels: It was great before, but now it doesn't work at all.
• (2024-08-13) Андрей Тёскин: Был отличный голос "Google русский", но в последние пару дней засбоил: сперва стал произвольно чередоваться с какой-то другой, дурацкой и неразборчивой озвучкой, а затем и вовсе на неё перешёл. В настройках ничего не менял. Это только у меня так? И если так у всех, то это теперь постоянно так будет? UPD от 13.08.2024: Меняю оценку с 4 на 1. Расширение не работает уже две недели. Совсем не работает, просто ничего не происходит при его вызове. Судя по последним отзывам, проблема массовая. Но разработчики, похоже, просто "забили" и ничего не собираются исправлять. Ни одного ответа ни на один отзыв.
• (2024-08-04) Adrian Currier: I'm happier with this than with any other extension I've tried for TTS so far. No complaints! EDIT: For some reason a few days ago it started crashing my browser every time I tried to use it and this is still happening
• (2024-08-03) Gunluk VB: Program iki haftadır çalışmıyor. Oysa harika bir programdı. Neden çalışmayı durdurduğunu bilen var mı? Sorun benim bilgisayar ayarlarımda mı?
• (2024-07-26) JL GP: Nota temporal: ¿Por que ha dejado de funcionar? He configurado y personalizado el idioma. Me parece muy útil, buscaba algo así y me encanta. Lo único que no entiendo es que al seleccionar otro idioma "Spanish, Castillian", al intentar reproducir el texto de prueba, este me manda a otra página, es de Google para configurar otras voces. Lo que no entiendo es: Si me manda a esa página donde hay más voces ¿Cómo puedo configurar la extensión para usar esas voces? Quiero usar el tipo de voz "WaveNet" que se oye mejor, pero no sabría como indicar a la extensión para que use esa voz. Nota: Una vez pruebas una voz de clud.google, ya te deja usar otro idioma de voz.
• (2024-05-05) Thomas Tiedemann: Richtig gut, vielen Dank! Genial!
• (2024-02-23) LuFe RoSe: Me gusta su fluidez, lo recomiendo.
• (2024-02-07) Alpha Cage: goated, tap in
• (2024-01-26) Derrick Jones: My recent trial of the Readme - Text to Speech TTS Google extension left me dissatisfied. The interruptions mid-sentence hindered my comprehension and disrupted the flow. The concept of a text-to-speech tool intrigued me, but this extension's performance failed to meet expectations. I cannot endorse it until these interruptions are resolved.
• (2024-01-14) Anthony Cannizzaro: The extension abruptly halts without any apparent cause while reading the text, which makes it extremely difficult to use effectively.
• (2023-11-14) Christopher Gibbings: Doesn't work without paid google cloud subscription
• (2023-11-12) Lyon Virtani: Works Great! I just hope there is not a daily limit if so I will downgrade from 5 stars to 3 stars.
• (2023-11-06) PACO SIMONE BISICCHIA: Mi aiuta a leggere i libro in poco tempo e capendo comunque bene
• (2023-11-05) Bobby Scroggins: Can't use it because it keeps going to another screen when I try to edit the text. That is retarded
• (2023-11-03) K K: 有料サイトに誘導されて使えません
• (2023-11-01) Fadly Iman: membantu sekali
• (2023-10-29) C4rlos Santiago: Me encanta
• (2023-10-28) Onan Bridgewater: Best TTS app yet. Works wonders for my A.D.D.
• (2023-10-26) Lautaro: simplemente ideal para disléxicos

• (2023-10-23) Laura Ortiz Serna: Muy útil para leer textos largos. Tiene diferentes voces y velocidades.
• (2023-10-21) Aaron Raycove: Stops reading if the sentence is too long, very distracting. I would give a higher rating but It's more of a distraction if I have to constantly shift my focus to restarting the audio. It's annoying and distracting.
• (2023-10-20) Aline Andrade: Ele copia o texto selecionado na página e então faz a leitura. Consequentemente mesmo saindo do site ele continua lendo. Não sei se sou eu, mas não encontrei ferramenta pra acelerar ou interromper a leitura enquanto ela ocorre. Testei no site Veja e confirmei isso. Se seleciono o texto antes do bloqueio de contéudo, consigo ouvir a noticia inteira.
• (2023-10-20) Keshav Bansal: Easy to work with, its is not the most optimized, perfect product but it gets the job done. Love it.
• (2023-10-19) tony nguyen: good and free easy to use, 4 stars
• (2023-10-19) Vitor Café: Muito bom... Está mudando a minha forma de consumir conteúdo escrito. Recomendo!
• (2023-10-19) Antonello: L estensione non e male.Peccato che non si possa scegliere di nascondere l interfaccia e di leggere direttamente dal browser senza avere l interfaccia in basso a destra(o a sinistra)che ogni tanto si apre da sola ! Un altro suggerimento sarebbe quello di aggiungere i pulsanti rapidi. Di base l estensione e buona :)
• (2023-10-18) Lautaro berne: Funciona muy bien, aunque seria mejor que el control de velocidad sea mas progresivo. Además, muy de vez en cuando, se pausa sin razón.
• (2023-10-18) Mark Palmos: very basic. You have to highlight text and then RH mouse click to get it to read, in a robotic voice. not great.
• (2023-10-17) Constanza Venegas: me encanta, perfecto para concentrase en apuntes latosos. La voz de sabina en español mi favorita
• (2023-10-16) Daniel Roche: Constantly stops reading every few lines.
• (2023-10-15) kiwimedia chris: awesome works perfectly, just need more voices
• (2023-10-15) Rüdiger Marwein: Stops reading mid-sentence in not-too-long text (120 words or 700 characters). When this would be fixed, the extension would be really valuable. Also I could not get a shortcut to work that would start reading the marked text, so I would not have to go through the context menu all the time.
• (2023-10-14) Mabel: Very useful!
• (2023-10-14) Jonatas da Silva Falcão Santiago: Kara esta extensão é muito boa, eu consigo estudar e resolver e entender questões de trabalho
• (2023-10-13) Birol Tatar: ÜCRETLİ AMK HİÇ İNDİRMEYİN BİLE
• (2023-10-13) Nat Stewart: This is the most solid and responsive text-to-speech system I've used. I don't care about non-human-sounding TTS, so keep that in mind. I love how functional the PDF reader is.
• (2023-10-13) Jose Chavez: bien
• (2023-10-13) Hùng Mạnh Vũ: Good 4/5 sao Đôi khi bị lỗi, khi bôi đen 1 đoạn văn bản --> ấn vào extensions để đọc --> ra 1 bảng không load được button, chữ,... chỉ 1 màu
• (2023-10-12) Marcus Medina (Marcus): It worked for 3 sentences then it started showing me a page where to pay for the extension. Uninstalled. Plus the comboboxes are now wide enough to show the options.
• (2023-10-11) Alessandro Leite: Ao estudar, gosto de ouvir enquanto leio, então, esta extensão é de grande ajuda para meu aprendizado. Me ajuda muito a fixar melhor o conteúdo estudado! Só gostaria de ter mais vozes em Português PT-BR.
• (2023-10-09) C: So helpful when having to read lots of chapters for class.
• (2023-10-07) 影森みちる: The voices are too robotic. You can change their pitch which helps even out their tone a bit. But it functions better than Speechify. The highlighting text doesn't work on this either, though. I just want something that actually works. When will developers listen?
• (2023-10-07) Artem “hArtKor” Kornukhov: Отличное расширение, которое позволяет использовать гугловские голоса для озвучки текста, и они звучат весьма неплохо, даже с каким-то подобием интонации. А также есть возможность автоотслеживания читаемого текста прямо на странице с подсветкой предложений. По мне так прелесть.
• (2023-10-07) Thorvald Ueland: Your app is garbage. You should be ashamed of yourself for creating such useless refuse. I try to use it and it only reads one or two sentences, then it dies. Absolutely useless. This is NOT a computer-to-chair interface error.
• (2023-10-05) hussein et hayat sleiman: it's very good but it's asking me to verify that i am not a robot every 5mins or so that is why it get 4 stars
• (2023-10-04) Elio RG: Muy util esta extensión hicieron un buen trabajo los desarrolladores. Es verdad que tiene uno error muy notorio que deben de corregir pues se detiene de repente y debe uno de ejecutar de selección del texto y darle el comando de lectura nuevamente y lo hace repetidas veces, pero a pesar de esto cumple con el objetivo. Le doy 5 estrellas porque confío que resolverán el inconveniente.
• (2023-10-04) Juliezer Naves: Muito bom, ajuda a estudar demais, parabéns!!
• (2023-10-04) Thang Dang: great

Latest issues

• (2023-11-19, v:1.1.2) Paul Wanish: Enhancement for the handicapped
  Grandson is incredibly "gifted", but has visual to short term memory problem, He's in sixth grade and still struggles with reading and writing. As we know from Braille, other senses can make up for visual difficult. TTS could easily be adapted to help. The read would not convert to words for speech, rather, read letters (short pause for blank). Listen uses a different sense, and avoids visual problem. Needs 3 features. 1) switch from words to letters, 2) reading speed, 3) tap word (or mouse click) to pronounce the "spell word" being vocalized, before returning to "spell reading". This feature useful for new readers, but a definite aid to visually handicapped.
• (2023-11-04, v:1.1.2) Manolo: Improvements needed for a better user experience.
  Two requests for a better user experience as follows: (1) Ability to start reading anywhere within webpages by just clicking on any paragraph within the webpage (instead of need to click the forward or rewind arrow buttons, or the relevant paragraph in the popup). (2) The series of dashes (--------) between paragraphs in the popup are a distraction and should be removed. Note: This is the second time I'm submitting request no. (1) above.

This means that I can select between Indian English (Anna) for English and something like , none of the others. Not sure if it has to do with the browser, but it's quite frustrating. In general, the extension seems to be simply amazing with it's design choices and Chat GPT integration.

• (2023-03-14, v:1.0.7) Manolo: Ability to start reading anywhere within webpages by just clicking on any paragraph.
  Whenever I want to have a previous or subsequent paragraph within a page read (or re-read), I would have to click the rewind button or the forward button, respectively (the number of times to click would depend or how far back, or forward I want to go), which can be a rather tedious task. Alternaitvely, I would have to maximize the reader view pop-up window, look for the relevant paragraph and click on it (which is also another tedious task). It would indeed be very helpful if reading of any part of a webpage could be started just by clicking on the relevant paragraph within the actual webpage (instead of the two currently available options described above).
