Read aloud the current web-page article with one click, using text to speech (TTS). Supports 40+ languages.
Read Aloud uses text-to-speech (TTS) technology to convert webpage text to audio. It works on a variety of websites, including news sites, blogs, fan fiction, publications, textbooks, school and class websites, and online university course materials.
Read Aloud allows you to select from a variety of text-to-speech voices, including those provided natively by the browser, as well as by text-to-speech cloud service providers such as Google Wavenet, Amazon Polly, IBM Watson, and Microsoft. Some of the cloud-based voices may require additional in-app purchase to enable.
Read Aloud can read PDF, Google Docs, Google Play books, Amazon Kindle, and EPUB (via the excellent EPUBReader extension from epubread.com).
Read Aloud is intended for users who prefer to listen to content instead of reading, people with dyslexia or other learning disabilities, and children learning to read.
To use Read Aloud, simply navigate to the web page you want to read, then click the Read Aloud icon on the browser menu. In addition, the shortcut keys ALT-P, ALT-O, ALT-Comma, and ALT-Period can be used to Play/Pause, Stop, Rewind, and Forward, respectively. You may select the text you want to read before activating the extension. Right clicking on the selected text will provide you with yet another context-menu option to activate Read Aloud.
To change the voice, reading speed, pitch, or enable text highlighting, go to the Options page either by right clicking on the Read Aloud icon and choose Options, or by clicking the Gear button on the extension popup (you'll need to stop playback to see the Gear button).
Read Aloud is an open-source project. If you wish to contribute bug fixes or translations, please visit the GitHub page at https://github.com/ken107/read-aloud

- (2024-07-12) joseph: good, while it works. Kubuntu and Edge browser. oftentimes crashes in the middle of an article, and only disabling and reenabling the extension, or restarting the browser will get it back. just doesn't compare at all to the read aloud feature in Edge for Windows. You have to go into the settings to change the speed.
- (2024-05-07) Isaac: It can't seem to read my file with actual words on it.
- (2024-04-26) George: It keep crashing and I have to disable and enable it to make it work again. Maybe it does not like bing chat?
- (2024-03-18) Andra: I use it every day. To read, study, work faster. Always 2x or more sometimes. My favorite voice is Microsoft Andrew. I wish it was available on Chrome as well. Improvements: easy keyboard shortcut to go to next or chose from where exactly to read. Some sort of tasteful small popup would be appreciated.

- (2021-11-16) 可永: 非常好,希望作者开发一个iOS的safari浏览器版本的插件
- (2021-08-12) Reik: Great Program!
- (2021-08-01) Davidson,: Wants me to purchase something I already pay for on AWS!
- (2021-07-08) bug: linux版本的edge暂时没有内置朗读功能,这个插件还是很有用的,语音引擎也特别自然,赞!
- (2021-03-12) Peng: 这个扩展已经没有用了。使用EDGE在网页鼠标右键-大声朗读,选择在线语音,例如xiaoxiao,朗读效果秒杀所有插件!
- (2021-03-11) hongbin: 非常好用,阅读的文字没有标识出来,希望改进写
- (2021-01-21) Jimmy: 目前发现杀毒软件防火墙会阻断听不到阅读
- (2021-01-17) 流觞: 挺好的,就是有些设计感觉反人类,希望坐着能够添加一个快速筛选功能,让我能够快速找到中文语音,如果能够添加国内的语音那就更好了。当然,如果能够识别新闻和小说的正文,那才是一个优秀的插件。
- (2021-01-15) 李: 这个插件挺不错的,就是有时候朗读点了没反应,希望尽快改进
- (2020-12-01) Zhou: 太喜欢这个插件了,强烈推荐,超级好用,眼睛的好帮手

- (2020-11-11) leo: 很好用!!!不知道后面能支持一下其他格式的文件,还有pdf换行就会有空格,朗读会断开,希望可以完善一下这个问题(*^_^*)
- (2020-10-24) 杰: 挺好用的 有好多的声音类型 刚好有我喜欢的类型
- (2020-09-19) 王: 6666666
