- (2025-07-10) Michael Köhler: Great tool. In contrast to ChatGPTs own function you see what you say right away. One problem though: It deletes text in some cases when I start to speak. For example, when I edit text manually and then start to talk, it deletes everything I have written before. This is very annoying, please fix this, thank you a lot!
- (2025-07-02) Status Quo: I use DeepSeek and everything seems to be great except... it repeats the last response every time before voicing the newest response. I'll give a simple example below to clarify. Me: blah blah blah AI Voiced: (Response A) Me: new blah blah blah AI Voiced: Repeats the previous (Response A) before moving on to this repsonse. Hope that helps. It happens every time on Edge and I even tested on Opera (because I don't use Chrome). I'll give 3 stars for now and will gladly change it if ever resolved. Everything else seems to work great.
- (2025-06-07) Linh Nguyen: Currently voicewave hasn't support Read-Aloud mode with Vietnamese Voice
- (2025-05-17) Phan Van Minh: good
- (2025-05-14) JOSE RAFAEL CRUZ ROMERO: great
- (2025-05-09) abubakar khan: best tool for me
- (2025-05-04) Maryam Khalil: very suspicious after deleting it, it stayed working!!
- (2025-04-29) Gary Rosner: Works for me on grok.com and on x.com (when accessing Grok). However, the setting for silence detection (defaults to off) fails to work for me while on the x.com even though silence detection works for me when on the grok.com.
- (2025-04-25) Shawn Kelly: Couldn't get it to work with Grok on windows. JUNK! removed.
- (2025-04-25) Biggums: Tested with DeepSeek, Chrome 135.0.7049.115 Speech recognition only works about 70% accurate and that is with already pronouncing everything unnaturally accurate. Reading only works for the very first sentence per message. Everything else gets completely ignored. The integration into the website looks nice tho.
- (2025-04-11) Oleksii Chekulaiev: Didn't work at all. Keeps complaining it cannot access the mic or the net all while both work fine.
- (2025-04-05) Markus Ho: Works fine in GPT; but other than advertised, does currently not work properly with Grok. It shows up in both, but for me, it only ever reads 1 sentence in Grok. Also, it stopped doing auto-speaking in both apps a couple weeks ago. And I would like to be able to set a speed for every language individually, as the different TTSvoices behave differently in each language.
- (2025-04-02) ꧁ღTRUMP FOR LIFEღ꧂: I’m writing a five-star review for VoiceWave because it has truly transformed my life. As someone with limited writing ability, I’m absolutely blown away by this tool. it’s given me a newfound skill I never thought possible. When I first tried it with Grok, I had to hold back tears of amazement. That said, being new, VoiceWave isn’t without its quirks. The fluidity could use some work. it adds hyphens and commas or capitalizes words when I pause while speaking. I think it works best when the user has clear, fluent thoughts before starting. I’m hopeful these small kinks will be smoothed out soon by the developers (or maybe I’ll just get better with practice!). Either way, thank you so much for this incredible leap forward in my life!
- (2025-03-30) Uki Bono: Super !!!!
- (2025-03-28) Cosmin Marin: After I record a message and send it , the recording should stop. Currently I have to stop it myself and it's incredibly annoying . You should record ONLY WHEN I CLICK A BUTTON.
- (2025-03-27) Imre Ilyés: Unfortunately, the extension hasn't been working for me either since the latest update (Google Chrome v: 134.0.6998.165). ChatGPT
- (2025-03-26) Lokesh Kumar Chunchu: Why I am not able to see microphone symbol to catch the voice on above the search bar. It's disabled today, I used it last night and all of a sudden it disappeared this morning. May I know the reason and how to fix it?
- (2025-03-26) Lowell E.: I think this is the best extension for speech with ChatGPT. However, "ChatGPT changes causes the extension to break" as a notification for a similar extension posts on it's webpage, and offers a fixed manual instal while waiting for review by the Chrome Store. I am finding today that "Voicewave: Voice Mode" is broken for me. I wonder if it is due to the same ChatGPT changes that broke several similar extension? I hope this extension will be fixed soon.
- (2025-03-20) Caterpillar Mr: good
- (2025-03-17) Tân Thơ LÂM: EXCELLENT
- (2025-03-14) Muhammadumar Sotvoldiev: Very useful. It works as expected, doesn't stop on pauses. Ability to control with hotkey. Thanks a lot!
- (2025-03-09) Frédéric Fonseca: Hello. There is an issue actually, maybe because of an update from Google. Thanks
- (2025-03-09) A W (pnksounds): amazing tool, cant thank you guys enough for this, especially with it working on all sites if you allow it. can be really useful when you least expect it. note: sometimes on edge[chrome works fine but lacks features for me], when clicking mic on, it displays that's I'm not connected to the internet, even though i cant access the website without a connection, as hilarious as it was at the time to see. unfortunately its persisted and become a hindrance. context: I have arthritis in my hands and makes it hard to type for long periods. additionally, when on chrome, nearly all language options for tts playback aren't available for some reason, idk if its how my chrome is set up but on edge its working fine. - this also seems to be present with voice recognition language on chrome.
- (2025-01-22) Nige Younes: The new in-page read-aloud feature is fantastic! Perfect for listening to newspapers and blogs, and it’s an amazing tool for language learners. Please consider adding more features to support language learning. It would make this app even better...
- (2025-01-20) Candy Kayla: Just love the new update. The UI looks solid. Please add voice command to auto wake.
- (2025-01-19) Patrick Dunn: Works excellently! The best one for voice typing, AI conversation and read aloud I have tested so far. Great for learning new language...
- (2025-01-18) Bas Straub: tool doesn't work. Often it connects to the mic (you see the microphone symbol pulsating) but nothing is transcribed. Poor quality and definetly not worth the money.
- (2024-12-21) Viraj Patel: This app should have a higher rating. I just installed it on 12/21/24 and it works flawlessly and has increased my productivity a lot. I like entering my prompts through voice but then reading the answers on screen, as this results in the fastest information intake, and this app allows just that. I love that you just hold down the key 'x' while talking or just tap x once and speak at your leisure and then say "enter' when you're done and the prompt is submitted.
- (2024-12-15) Ethan Lucero: This works excellently for what I want it to do. I do have a question though. If I want to find a way so that it can understand who specifically is speaking, is that a possibility at all, or do you have any suggestions to achieve that maybe?
- (2024-12-07) M o: Excellent
- (2024-12-03) Impulse: Why change the button that chatgpt added and replace it with your own so that this extension can be used instead of the built-in one? Why would you do that for plus users? I understand probably wanting more people in a premium subscription to your app, but you need to understand boundaries too. As long as there was no voice input from openai, the voice input of this extension was convenient, but the ability to communicate with chatgpt why close it? You could at least put it next to each other, so that a person could choose whether to dictate into a line and send it or communicate with chatgpt.
- (2024-12-03) Richa Savant: If possible, please increase the max TTS speech rate.
- (2024-12-01) Nowrin Nancy: The voice typing for all sites works like a charm. It saved my time 1000%...
- (2024-11-21) Tayyab Hussain: hi how are you use of chatgpt
- (2024-11-18) Patrick Panek: Awesome feature!!!!!! please fix your voice 'undo' 'delete' last input thing, it's broken for me :(
