- I love Speechify, but they chose not to hire me, so I hate them. But I love them. But I hate them. But I love them. Best thing in the world.
- Hats Tuesday
- It will never work properly even If you know lots about the damn stupid thing.
- Elle E.
- It works really well now, especially with the natural voices i use with premium. i installed this few years ago when they first made it and it was a hassle but they seemed to have fixed a lot of bugs from since then. Anyways I like reading a lot of online articles and lengthy commentary and sometimes my eyes get tired staring at the screen so I like this alternative.

- I have been using since last one year , I have recommended 20+ people.... THis is the best of best extension... Trust me this is the best extension , I ever install
- Joe Cochrane
- Great extension and helps maximize time by allowing me to listen to papers and documents while doing other things. The speed adjustments and voice selection are great. One downside the interface and control bar can be a little "buggy" periodically with it not loading or not responding to inputs. Removing and reistalling the chrome plug in seems to work to fix this
- Erfan Keyhani
- Great extension !
- Leonardo Dantas
- this app is awesome
- Frances Dowle
- The quality / naturalness of the speech is exceptional, and there's a wide choice of voices. It's easy to adjust the speed. The download feature, which is quite new, is very welcome, though currently takes far too long (but you can listen offline or with data - if signal is good enough for a phonecall, it's generally good enough for the premium voices). Perhaps downloading could be optimized for a few voices. In my experience, the 'time lapsed/time remaining' bar at the bottom is not accurate. Perhaps it will be more so with the download feature, though I've yet to wait long enough for a document to download. Improving this would help with time management. Synching across devices is very smooth. Overall, a very good app, with a just a few things that could be improved to make it even better.

- Kevin Trowbridge
- I downloaded the Speechify app and subscribed thinking I would use it primarily to listen to documents on my commute (which I do). However, the Chrome app has proven itself to be equally, if not more, valuable in my workflow. As I'm reading content on the screen, I'll often engage Speechify to read it for my ears while I read it with my eyes. The ability to choose the perfect voice and speaking rate is especially nice. That's where it exceeds other text-to-speech tools. Looks like my one-year subscription will be a multi-year commitment.

- Great extension! I wish there was a lifetime premium option available. It's also a bit pricey. Quality human-like voices though. I recommend it for college students or if you're tired of robotic voices already. If anyone interested, get $60 off and 1 month free when you sign up with this link: https://share.speechify.com/mzAcdfi
