nothing work

hareem ashfaq 2025-06-06

great concept but the glitch or bug or whatever, does not load the whole page.

Daniel 2025-04-12

The reader extension works well, but there’s one annoying issue: when I use the cursor to read text, a small pop-up says, "Click to read this sentence," which is very annoying, and I hope you can fix it.

Tran Hung 2025-03-12

The best thing that I love this extension is allow me to keep using other extensions

Ire E. 2024-12-11

Simple and good UI, but it breaks text formatting and removes paragraphs in dialogues

MyOxygen U're 2024-11-04

I really like the style of the plugin itself; it is also very clean and efficient to read. I hope the developer can add an export feature, including formats like Markdown and PDF
