- Don't usually bother writing these reviews about Chrome extensions, but this is true game changer, just brilliant - thank you
- neymarr
- too lazy to read ts helps
- Muhammad Akhtar
- Works great with Google Docs. I love the word highlighter in CC feature. Though in future if the word highlighter works in Google Docs that would be great. For me the line highlighter works inside Google Docs and word highlighter only works in the CC option.
- Natan Dobre
- I like it because it has very natural chinese pronunciation, but it can not replay from the exact point I paused. This is a big obstacle in practicing pronunciation. I would like to have that function.

- This would be one of the best reader extension I have ever used, I think I finally found what i was looking for a years. Perfect natural voice, multiple voice options, User defined speed, User defined start point; It has everything what I was looking for.
- caitlin donahoe
- I use this for studying. Using this greatly increases my speed and recall of content. Greatly reccomend
- Michael Adams
- This reader only reads Title, Headline 1, and Footer 1. It skips everything else.
- Z R.Y
- very good tool, useful and free
- Lod Runby
- The free voices are no better than any other TTS reader. The pro AI voices are pretty good but are quite pricey. There's another issue that the reader will skip nested sections when reading the webpage. The solution is to select what you want it to read.
- Arya H
- Two problems: 1. I tried using on Swedish news sites, but the audio sounds rushed, even though I haven’t sped it up. 2. It can’t detect the language properly after you choose it. I chose Swedish in the settings, but when I browse English websites, things get weird.
- Guy Tristram
- Too buggy
- John Brosnan
- Can it read only selected text? This isn't a review, but a question.
- Big Jo
- Great extension! Love that I can highlight certain paragraphs and it reads it out loud seamlessly.
- yu bu (不渝)
- good
- Rikki McNerney
- This has been a life save through college. It reads long text at a faster pace that assists my brain with understanding the information. Highly recommended for nerospicy people.
- Agile Dynamics
- excellent. very natural voice. very clear narration.
- Thrinspire Global Works GLOW
- This is a really great tool. A big thank you to the devs and team behind it. The voices are natural sounding and you have many options to pick from. In addition, setup is seamless. Add to chrome and start using right away. I had to leave this review because I tried other tools with similar features, and yours stood out for me. Thank you, and keep up the good work.

- Daniel N Grønn

- Catherine Graham
- I have been using natural reader for writing books as its sometimes quicker for me to hear it through then to read , and I can read it later , it helps a lot with time wise issues and for when I don't have my reading glasses right at hand.
- Alin Enrique Nascutiu
- Very good. Just what I was looking for. Simple text to speech extension for any website.
- Rahma Teyeb
- That’s an excellent app! It really helps me stay focused when reading long articles, especially those written in a language that isn’t my native one.
- Adele Curtis
- Natural Reader has been a complete game changer! It is worth the money to purchase the upgrade and have all of the amazing features at your fingertips; I promise, you won't regret it! Anyone with any type of attention or focus issues, learning disabilities, a busy life, or even just a lack of fondness for reading...this app is designed for you. I am 49 years old, taking a Masters program and with a busy life schedule, time is not always on my side, so to find time to sit down and get my readings done, page by page, is not always possible. So, I scan the pages, take a picture, or sometimes I am lucky enough that the document is located online, regardless of how the reading is found, I upload it into the app and voila! I have someone there, with a voice and speed of my choosing. I can't say enough wonderful things about it. I LOVE NATURAL READER! :)
- polar dust
- need to pay for voices in other languages, even worse than speechify
- Iván Sarmiento, Dr
- Thank you, NaturalReader! After spending a significant amount of money on Speechify—a platform that turned out to be disappointing—I was pleasantly surprised by NaturalReader. It has provided excellent and reliable service at a much more reasonable price. I'm happy and highly recommend it!
- Silent Evil
- excellent by my purpose
- X Jia
- there is no free voices, only Plus AI, Pro, and Premium. Can't use.
- Nukeing Toe
- close to perfect online reader although it does break on a small number of websites.
- ADJ9856
- best free tts imo. it's exactly like the website but easier to access. please never change!
- Amy McIntyre
- Natural Reader is just the reader I've been looking for!
- Oseas Liber Job
- Thank you for creating and maintening this app NauralReader
- Breanna Blaylock
- I'm having a diffcult time where the app is only reading cliffnotes and not the full article.
- Mbogo Thuita
- Best!
- Zakarya Ali
- I dont often write reviews... But this one was just annoying, was using it thought it was ok till 5 mins were up, and apparently its a subscription, and i thought ok sure how much, but for about a $100 and something per year? for what also, it makes free voices annoying to find, it took me a while to find where they were, and they sound more robotic :/ i wonder if they even own all those voices..? anyway, not worth it BYE
- Angel
- I find that I do have to follow along because it skips anything in parentheses, which is helpful when listing books and dates. However, this app is helping me significantly with my graduate studies, especially as someone dealing with dyslexia who has a hard time reading. I went through my undergrad without this as an option, but thankfully, my grad school offered me this fantastic tool. It is reading my PDFs and even the pages in my Populi courses, such as my syllabus, without me even having to download it ( I added it as an extension to Chrome). I can change the voice, speed it up, slow it down. All schools should be required to offer this to help their students with different abilities.
- eDee Bruns
- It does nothing. I'm in my Google Doc, I highlight text or I place the curser where I want it to start reading, I click the blue N - nothing happens - it just sits there.
- Emily Murdock
- This app has been so helpful to me in my college classes. It can read my PDF books out loud to me, and I can also read on my own, highlight, and take notes. I can search my books for keywords to find quotes that I need when I'm writing papers. I'm a big fan!
- Jonathan Peterson
- good waaaayyyyyy better than ram consuming speechify
- Serena Manganini
- this is the only free reader that reads almost anything on chrome, in my experience. Super useful
- Serjo Agronov
- Wow, this is by far the best.
- Elissa Kerman
- I tried speechify and this one is much more smooth in my opinion. Even the free voices are close enough to human voices that you can understand without following along. Quality extension!
