Description from store Voice Reader is an efficient tool that enables you to listen to text content being read aloud. It utilizes text-to-speech (TTS) technology to read from various sources such as news articles, social networks, Google Docs, and webpages. This TTS Reader is designed to be user-friendly, converting written text into spoken words effortlessly. With support for over 50 languages and more than 80 voices, you have the freedom to personalize the settings according to your preferences. In addition to web content, Voice Reader can also read aloud PDFs, Google Docs, EPUBs, and books within your Google Chrome browser. Simply highlight the desired text and click on the icon to initiate the text-to-speech conversion. You'll have various options at your disposal, including the ability to adjust the voice, reading speed, and pitch. Now, you can conveniently listen to content while multitasking. Let Voice Reader and Text to Speech assist you in this endeavor. To begin using this extension, all you need to do is add it to your Chrome browser. It's a straightforward process that takes only a few seconds. TTS is a relatively new extension that proves immensely useful for individuals who prefer converting written text into spoken words. This extension became available on the Chrome Web Store in 2022 and offers a comprehensive set of features that cater to your needs. The latest version supports 52 languages, including English, Arabic, Portuguese, Spanish, Romanian, Turkish, Croatian, French, Danish, Swedish, and many more. Despite its feature-rich nature, the extension itself is lightweight, merely occupying 133 kilobytes of storage space. This ensures quick and seamless installation. Using the Text to Speech functionality is a breeze: 1. Open a web page written in one of the supported languages. 2. Highlight the text you find interesting or wish to listen to. 3. Click the "listen" button. The extension will then read the selected text aloud in a clear and audible manner. By default, the reading language is set to English, but you can easily modify the settings to suit your preferences. The browser add-on provides a wide array of options, including playback control buttons such as "play," "stop," "forward," and "back." With these, you can initiate the reading, pause it, or navigate forward or backward word by word. All changes are displayed on the browser page, ensuring a seamless user experience. Moreover, the extension features a convenient volume and speaker adjustment button. This allows you to tailor the audio output to your liking since different individuals have varying preferences when it comes to narration speed. Additionally, the "Settings" button grants access to numerous additional features. In the past, early free text-to-speech online browser add-ons often produced robotic and unnatural intonations, hampering the overall listening experience. However, thanks to advancements in modern technology, the TTS browser add-on offers a much smoother and more convenient experience. It provides a plethora of high-quality options for testing and listening at your convenience. Furthermore, you can choose from a wide selection of male and female voices, ensuring maximum comfort while listening to the text. The developers of this browser add-on have devoted special attention to this aspect. Although competitors also strive to deliver accurate products, the Text to Speech program stands out as the industry's most precise, high-quality, and multifunctional solution. Numerous positive reviews from satisfied customers further validate this fact.
