• (2023-04-17) jade pringle: Works very well, only had to toggle it on, no reset or anything. All other apps were very complicated and did not work at all.
• (2023-02-27) Matthew: This is a good extension. I just wish there was something like it for PDFs. It doesn't work with all websites, like this page, but it works does work on Wikipedia and many others.
• (2023-01-30) Grae Wason: This is great! I was looking for a line reader that worked on pdf's that i have open in chrome, tried a few, and this one does the trick!
• (2022-12-03) Cameron Pak: Works great! First need to restart Chrome for it to work (reason why I did 4 instead of 5 stars)
• (2022-09-27) Ethan M.: The extension doesn’t work anymore in my website. So sad about this :(
• (2022-07-21) Nicholas Tse: Works for me, just needed to go to 'Extensions', click on 'Screen Mask', then click the 'Power On' toggle.
• (2022-05-21) Liam DELALANDE: Doesn't work, even if I close and re open the browser :/
• (2021-02-16) Destiny Ha: Does not work
• (2020-07-23) JheTai Hou (Leslie): Really helpful ! ! simple and straight forward!! Thank you！ is it possible to add some features that could make reading more seamlessly？ for example 1.Remembering the scrolling position so that even the tab is closed, people can still quickly go back to where they were focusing on a long article 2.Allow people to fix the mask frame to a certain position on their choose which might be helpful to focus on a page. Being able to float everywhere with the mouse is convenient, however, sometimes it is better to "just stay" ,depending on the content and the layout of the website.
• (2019-12-15) Bree Vwhyman: This could be very useful if you can GRADIENT the background curtain....even to full black. Also it would be very useful if it had an AUTOSCROLL line by line feature. thx
• (2018-10-10) Willemijn Nieuwenhuis: David, thank you! This tool makes it possible to stay on a row with my sight while online reading sentences in a text. I have residual damage on my optical nerves because of having gone through a few inflamated eye nerves periods (neuritis optica). The result is that my eyes follow one another too slow when looking left or right and this gives me double sight. Especially while reading. Concentration helps but Screens Mask is better I would say:). Thanks again. I am now going to read my philosophy texts:). very kind regards, Willemijn Netherlands (Eindhoven)

Latest issues

• (2022-03-27, v:1.0.0.0) B C: Screen Mask Plus
  Hello! I've been using the other version of this (Screen Mask Plus) for quite some time but then it suddenly disappeared a few months ago. However, I just got a new computer, and I realized it is still available as a Microsoft Edge addon. Is there a reason it is no longer available for chrome? Is there a way for me to get it on chrome again? I miss the color options, this made reading so much easier for me...
• (2021-09-23, v:1.0.0.0) Helena Harrison: not working
  screen mask not showing when enabled
• (2020-02-11, v:1.0.0.0) Stephenie Buehrle: Color options?
  My child just showed me this amazing tool! I am SO PUMPED to have this reading aid! He and I both have light sensitivity and have used color overlays to help us with reading (hard copies and on screens). It would be ideal if this tool offered color options (I would pick a pale yellow or green, for example). I'm super grateful as it is and I hope that you do not mind my sharing feedback.
• (2019-02-16, v:0.0.1.0) Options:
  I can help maintain the code if you would like to share it on github.
• (2019-02-16, v:0.0.1.0) Options:
  Are you still maintaining this code? I would like to add some options 1) Add an option to darken/lighten the mask 2) Add some keyboard support to increase the size of the mask If you are not maintaining the code I am willing to add the options myself if you share the code base.
